  Toysrus.com 100.00 Arrived
 
To All, I just got a FEDEX package with the $100 of Geoffrey dollars in it, and a letter that was the same as the e-mail. It is a nice gesture, to be sure, but it also serves as a good business lesson, if you don't serve your customers, you don't (...) (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  5978 - Watta deal!
 
After reading all the dim findings of my SE Michigan bretheren, I was a little hesitant to venture for in search of good deals. Boy am I glad I did today! I went to one of my local Wal Marts. Nothing great at first glance. All the little Adventurer (...) (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

  Re: Design wanted: Touch sensor for passing trains
 
(...) This would be my suggestion as well, if you want to use a touch sensor. If I recall correctly, they should be robust enough that the weight of the track won't set them off, but the weight of a passing train will. The only thing I'd worry about (...)

  Re: Design wanted: Touch sensor for passing trains
 
I have used a magnetic reed switch to detect trains. Glue a small magnet to a lego piece, and mount on the train. Cut a Lego wire in half, and solder a reed switch to the cut end. This detects the train with precision, and is not affected by (...) (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Pattern #'s
 
(...) The are no fixed rules, as the pattern numbers are specific to LDraw - they're not TLG reference numbers. So generally, first-come-first-served, but where the same pattern appears on several parts (like some of the P68s - M:Tron) an attempt is (...) (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Slim Pickings at Target
 
(...) Yes, it's been my experience that 4 is the number. There is actually another indication of a possible great deal. If you scan it and it comes up "clearance" or something like that, no price indicated, then it's usually real cheap. I have had (...) (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.theory)

Hello! I wonder if there is anyone else that has built a Mindstorms robot that "shoots" stuff around? I wanted to build something that I haven't seen made before with RIS.
