  On the subject of gluing
 
I note Marios comment; (...) I agree with cut saw and drill, but glue? So far, everything I have tried remains "fragile". I remember, a long time ago, before people used glue for "recreational" purposes, there were glues for models which actually (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Loading Loco
 
Hi, We bought an unopenend Lego Loco at a discount store and I can't get it to load on the computer. Install shield comes on, runs for awhile, shutsdown and then my computer runs super slow until I reboot. Any ideas or suggestions for me to try. (25 years ago, 28-Dec-99, to lugnet.games.lego.loco)

Hoi, De Shell actie zit in de laatste week, en een boel tank-stations verkopen nu hun voorraad zonder de verplichte tankbeurt/bonnen. Ik was gisteren bij de Shell-pomp in Best en de dozen waren in de vrije verkoop. Kortom de grote dozen kosten (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.nl)

  FS: Mindstorms RIS 1.0 w/1.5 upgrade ($170), RDS ($110)
 
I'm going to put these up on Ebay, but I figured I'd let you guys get first shot at them. I have 5 RIS 1.0 sets to sell. These are the "good" ones, with the AC plug on the RCX brick. I have already ordered the 1.5 upgrade kits, they are included. I (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

  Brad - TLC needs to minimize packaging
 
Brad, I've gotten a few "special" sets, 1775 and 2149 in particular, that are densely packed in order to take up as little storage space as possible. It would be nice if TLC would start to package ALL of their sets this way. Almost all of the 1999 (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)
