(...) Tony, I had been following the planning of this event and it looks like it really turned out well. I really like all of the trees, and the snow trees in the winter waterfall module look very striking. I noticed a 341 tucked in there. (2 URLs) (...)

The weight it can lift (about 200g at the end of the boom) is not representative at all of the torque of the motor: the crane tips well before the (...)

(...) Ingenious design! That video was fun to watch. It moves very smoothly and gracefully. The shock to tension the cable was an awesome idea since it created more friction on the winches that moved the trolley. How much can it lift with the (...) (19 years ago, 7-Mar-07, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

I have a feeling that this will be much like Disney's Virtual Magic Kingdom (VMK) or Nick's Nicktropolis (Coca-cola has one too), and much less like World of Warcraft or Everquest. These web based MMOGs are very popular, and not only draw in users, (...) (19 years ago, 7-Mar-07, to lugnet.mediawatch, FTX)
