  Re: backgrounds logo image (was: Re: [ldraw.org] Update)
 
Another tangential question... why item #5? (...) An earlier version of my factoring form had the white image as background for the whole thing, except the table cell at the very top which is sort of a title block (that part now has white bricks, (...) (27 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: backgrounds logo image (was: Re: [ldraw.org] Update)
 
(...) Well if they're not text links, what are they to be then? You've removed the logo, right? So text is only choice available. Under the first numbered item, nothing other than backgrounds themselves is allowed to be copied and you don't support (...) (27 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.publish)

  Part 4180
 
I have a part 4180, but it has car wheels, not train wheels. Isn't part 4180 just the holder? /Tore (27 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: 313 (1971) London Bus
 
(...) Didn't I make the "8" pattern??? And I thought I've made all the dark blue... I didn't see your posts until today, that would have saved me and Martin some work... Strange, isn't it? I picked sets 313 and 315, too. Anyway, are you sure it (...) (27 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models.sets)

  Re: Southern Legofest reminder...
 
(...) Yes. I'm visiting the UK for the first time with a friend who's from Deal (he currently lives in the US). I'll be there from Sept. 13th-27th; my friend is leaving back for the US on the 17th (he not a LEGO person, so he's not missing out on (...) (27 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)
 
  Re: backgrounds logo image (was: Re: [ldraw.org] Update)
 
(...) I _don't_ necessarily think you're _not_ right (vis-à-vis deep linking of banner and button images). It's just such an insignificant thing to worry about in the grand scheme of things, IMHO.

  Motor Speed/Torque Sensor
 
I've developed a circuit that can be used to measure the speed of a powered motor. It works by measuring the voltage generated by the motor during the off period of the PWM. Since the highest power output setting is on all the time, it doesn't work (...) (27 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Anyone know who stocks LEGO train track in Southern California?
 
You could try LEGOLAND California, I don't know where it is exactly in California, but no normal LEGO retailer in the US has carried Train tracks, etc. since 1993-1994. I only get it at SAHS. Scott "Yes, I live in Michigan" Sanburn (...) (27 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)
