So I built this for a friend. I had a lot of fun with it and even though I have other favourite mechs, the Madcat still comes first to mind when I think of mechs. Enjoy the pics. (URL) and the gallery, (URL) I did up a couple of teaser pics that you (...) (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.announce.moc, FTX)

(...) Yeah I'm kinda peeved that LEGO hasn't even sent me a bummer email. I received nothing and I have the confirmation that I applied so its not like htat don't have my email. What's up with that? I can accept I didn't make the cut but c'mon...I (...) (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Thanks for your comments Peter. We have no physical welcome mat planned, but unfortunately exhibition space in Melbourne does not come cheap. We have attempted to keep the costs to a minimum, and $50 is quite cheap for a 2 day convention. (...) (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.events, FTX)

(...) You do realise that you actually have to pay for convention space don't you? Or did you think it was going to be held in someones backyard? Tim (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)

(...) Hmmm, $50.00 (+travel +accomodation), you are not exactly rolling out the welcome mat. Are you wanting some exhibits or just vendors? (19 years ago, 7-Mar-06, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.events, FTX)

(...) Hey mat, I understand your question about manufacturing parts and here's my take on it. BBB wheels were made because TLC basically refused to do it. Now the reason fans have embraced BBB wheels is because there werent any alternatives. I.E. (...) (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.parts.custom, lugnet.trains, FTX)

Hi, I have purchased recently the LEGO set 7471. It contains 7 parts of 4 different types that imitate solar panels. I created DAT files for all of them.

(...) No problem, as for parts modding. I'm well down that slope. I've been known to cut a brick or plate to get a needed smaller version, I.E. a 1x1 brick in dark orange, and making custom 9v train track. My first mod was drilling holes to wire up (...)
