  Re: Datsville: crane2 (exponents?)  [DAT]
 
For some reason, the lines with exponents don't render in ldlite when I use the dat hyperlink in web mode. ldlite,ldraw and l3p/povray render them fine locally. I made it in MLcad. Is this a bug? There is no need for e-15 exponents anyway so I (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: Datsville--Town Hall
 
(...) It conceivable. I haven't put it in the town yet, so it may actually be too big. I've got the space for it, but it may look out of place being so large. It's a government building, so it's supposed to look oversized, with 12-15 foot ceilings (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

  Datsville: crane  [DAT]
 
I'm posting this as a mpd this time. Sooner or later Datsville is going to need an office building for it's residents to work in. This is a modular crane that can be adjusted in height for any project, and the arm can be rotated about the crane top. (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

  Re: FOTW at KMART
 
It is law in Michigan. There is also a law about scanning items wrong, if the price is different, you get 10X the amount of difference between prices. I always changed the price if it was marked wrong when I was a cashier at Meijer. Scott S. (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: FOTW at KMART
 
(...) I'm no lawyer, but I have heard that that store was legaly obliged to sell that game for the marked price. I was told that by a retail manager while being trained on how to be a cashier when I was a kid. It could as easily be an urban legend (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  RE: Automatic sorting
 
(...) Terry, consider using the PLAN0 37xx boxes. Two of them, (one with special mods) will hold an entire Mindstorms set. They are more transparent than the two sided box. Also, sometimes Walmart has the softsided PLANO tackle bag (black) with (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.storage)
 
  RE: Is there a device that...?
 
Yeah! You're right! I've seen it done in Basic so I would assume C++ has a function. But, I don't remeber wether they are at 12V or 5V. (?) (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Four Wheel Base
 
I disassembled quite some (lego) models, I also use differential steering. I position the wheels like most models on a square (so width and length of wheel base is equal). Funny thing about a square is that a circle can be drawn from the middle (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Automatic sorting
 
I'm about to start teaching a robotics class for 7th and 8th graders and will have 6 Mindstorms kits. I just got one of the PLANO 1126 boxes at KMart for $9.90 These boxes have two sides: Good, but how about looking for stuff?? Can you who use these (...)

  RE: Space shuttle (#8480) kits available
 
Greetings, I just received a new catalog from Lego on the 10th of September. You can buy it directly from them for $158. They must have a few in stock if they took the time and expense to reprint the picture in the catalog. <<...>> -----Original (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Train Idea Book?
 
There are two Train ideas books - 7777 (82 pages of the 12volt trains, my favorite) and 242 (100 pages of older trains). They are both tough to find and expensive, like most Train related Lego products, but there are scans of 7777 on (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Train Idea Book?
 
7777 springs to mind. I found scans of this book a while back, it's a treat. I have *once* seen a paper copy. It is hard to find in the flesh, if someone had a copy they were itching to sell, it would be swell if they contacted me... Try this URL: (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Metroliner and Crocodile Engine Wanted...
 
Even if you forgive the box and some missing (even a few unique...) parts, about the lowest you're going to find both of these unless someone gives you a below market price is around 300-350. IMHO. I am probably (at some point) going to sell my (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
