Desværer. Jeg har ikke denne mulighed. Der er der simpelt hen ikke. Det nærmeste jeg kommer til at manipulere med et indlæg er "Flyt til mappe.." men der er altid ghosted i newsgroups. Det er selvfølgelig lidt iriterende, men da jeg jo alligevel (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.loc.dk)

  Re: Castle Minifig Races
 
What would be extremely cool for an Ice Knight soldier would be a white mini- fig with blue arms and hips, silver breastplate, clear shield, lt. trans blue spear, ninja head, and a white ninja swath thing that goes on the head.

  RE: Ping-Pong Ball Shooter
 
I think both the catapult and slingshot would be very impressive devices. However, the biggest problem I see with both of these (and particularly with the catapult) is that they involve significant linear acceleration and deceleration of structures (...)

  Re: Ping-Pong Ball Shooter
 
I prototyped a catapult design several months ago that used two motors to "cock" and fire/launch a rubber-band driven ball-launcher. The loading/firing sequence was something like: 1) load ball on catapult. 2) power motors in reverse at low power (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: offtopicy sort of thing
 
I think that's a really good idea. I tried it, and found out that the motor recieving power spins slower than the motor you spin. This is about 4:3. This could be a really good speed reduction technique that doesn't use gears, or you could power (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: What are your 10 most wanted pieces from LEGO Direct?
 
Steve, I don't think that something of your scale is impossible by parting out blue tubs. There are 120 2x4 bricks in a tub. That would mean you need to part out 42-84 tubs. This is indeed a large task, but by no means impossible. I sorted 96 tubs (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.general)
