Great to see some activity on the Trains newsgroup today! We will post new photos of Tim's Virginia State Capitol, designed by Thomas Jefferson, and soon (hopefully) to be displayed at our State Capitol. This year we have a much smaller display at (...)

(...) Nixon would need a giant killer warbot body to be delicately perched atop. For my Moonbase pool module, I put Groening's head in a jar, with several owls looking directly at him. BTW, your MOC needs more owls. (...) That's actually the great (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.space)

(...) Il polistirolo espanso, così come i listelli in legno (1x2x100 cm) li puoi trovare in negozi come il Brico o il Self. La carta da parati colorata (che avevo soprannominato di "Almodòvar") dubito tu la riesca a trovare identica alla mia, ma se (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.org.it.itlug)

(...) Cool. We might actually get this very difficult part done. It may take a while but I'll try to get the inside bit mostly complete (easier than the outside). Then we can split the work into the harder bits... Tim PS. We should probaly shift to (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I'm intrigued by this. I did a similar experiment using a 8.4v NiCad Battery and a monorail train. Whenever the train was stopped at the station, some metal brushes would contact between the the battery and track side connections. Thus (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Seems to me that train style PF RX/TX pair will be a perfect technology to reintroduce the monorail system with! Even if LEGO doesn't do this. I see it adding new value to my monorail system. MOnorail was always a bit limited by the lack of (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I just want to say that there are some REALLY innovative ideas being thrown around here. All this talk of automated recharging on sidings and automated points is just making me giddy. Keep the ideas coming!!! -Dave (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Oh yeah - scale is WAY off, here. If you ever watch the cartoon closely, you'll see that the building is actually quite big. If I were to build this 'minifig' size, it would probably be around 3 feet tall (I haven't worked out the details). (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Well, up until now I haven't really been much of a building builder (I never know quite how to put that...). Ships and vehicles are more my thing. Also, there's not much else in New New York that's as recognizable as the P.E. Building. I might (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) I think I might eventually do a 'Nixon' head for the jar, but in the meantime I just wanted a recognizable face there. He's representing himself. :) One bad part about that jar is that if you put a standard minifig male hair piece on a head, (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.space)

(...) Sure - but then it's not automated. You have to get the first train onto the siding, or (if it was running around the track through the siding in the first place) you have to throw the switch so any other train bypasses the siding on the main (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I have never done in this way, but it sounds good. I think first step should be a mokup for the overall dimensions and the connection (axle hole etc) points. The fine tuning (ribs in frontside etc) should then be divided into areas for you and (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Obviously QT is designed so that apps can be written completely without using QT Designer. One thing you might do is create a (...) (17 years ago, 28-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
