Hey all, I am in need of a large quantity of tan baseplates but rather than spend my entire next paycheck on bricklink I’m hoping I might be able to work out a trade for most of what I need. Currently I am in need of 56 32x32 "or equivalent" tan (...) (17 years ago, 29-Jun-07, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

I have need of counterbalancing for a project I'm working on, and I need to add the equivalent of up to 50 2x4 bricks in weight. Naturally I started looking at 2x6x2 weight bricks. I don't currently own any, though, so I'm wondering how much they (...) (17 years ago, 28-Jun-07, to lugnet.trains)
