(...) Further to this, how about Caterpillar construction equipment. Even if people dont necessarily recognize the Caterpillar brand name, they will most likely recognize Caterpillar dump trucks, backhoes, excavators, front end loaders, bulldozers (...) (16 years ago, 14-Jul-08, to lugnet.town)

(...) Hi Magnus, a variety of reasons comes to mind: - Are you using a rechargeable battery? The 9V types of rechargeables sometimes lose power too quickly for such a rather demanding application. - If you let the motor run freely (i.e. without any (...) (16 years ago, 14-Jul-08, to lugnet.technic)

Hello Magnus, (...) From the symptoms you describe I would say you need "a bigger battery box". Battery boxes (and motors too) contain a current limiting device. It is a resistor whose value increase (a lot) with temperature. When you start your (...) (16 years ago, 14-Jul-08, to lugnet.technic)

Lastly, a few general thoughts... I'd like to see a tub of bulk bricks, but one that is simply made up of extra parts from the current line of city buildings. This tub would contain parts to allow kids to finish their city buildings into complete (...) (16 years ago, 14-Jul-08, to lugnet.town)

Jordan, I'm glad that I am getting a better chance to respond to your post on this. Before, I didn't really understand why anyone would want a LEGO set of a school or a library, but after seeing how girls play with LEGO (and other toys), I can (...) (16 years ago, 14-Jul-08, to lugnet.town)
