(...) Well, I don't rememebr minifigs ever doing a virtual tor, but at least 2 sets have done an actual tour. Do a search on "Colin" and "Wanda" and look for messages in 2000. Also search for "Brad" and "tour" Paul Sinasohn LUGNET #115 (19 years ago, 4-May-07, to lugnet.general, lugnet.fun, lugnet.build.minifigs, FTX)

(...) You're right of course. I knew of both yours and Mike's WW2 era X-Wings, and of Eric Poulton's blog as well. Since this text was cut'n'pasted from the FBTB entry post, it is therefore quite different from all of the other "evolution" entries (...)

(...) Very cool. My favorite details are the steampunky R2 unit, the propellers, and the use of rifles at the ends of the wings. Bruce (19 years ago, 4-May-07, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars, FTX)

(...) Perhaps the executable file and bytecode reference PDF explains arrays in a way that would complement the description in the NBC manual. The firmware source code is also a good source of information about how arrays work. (...) The firmware (...) (19 years ago, 4-May-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) Ooh good find. I think one of the pictures I found of an Antonov undergoing engine maintence also had extra struts at the back (maybe one engine isn't enough to rebalance it). Tim (19 years ago, 4-May-07, to lugnet.build, FTX)

My weirdest LEGO thing is probably close to one of a kind. While I worked for LEGOLAND California, the maintenance team took the crane beam off of the Kid Power Tower. I believe it was a safety issue with the wind. The beam and hook were fiberglass (...) (19 years ago, 4-May-07, to lugnet.general)

(...) I think we have a winner. These are, after all, official LEGO parts that, when used for their intended purpose, have within them the power to DESTROY YOUR ENTIRE LEGO COLLECTION! It's like the bomb in Stratego. (19 years ago, 4-May-07, to lugnet.general)

We are currently developing a new xy-plotter using one RCX. We deliberately choose the RCX for this project, because we worked out an interesting open-loop control with modulated waveforms that are applied to the motors. The page is journal-style, (...) (19 years ago, 4-May-07, to lugnet.robotics)
