I am looking for 4 DAT files that are part of Bart's 8860 DAT file, but were not included. Bart must be busy, or otherwise indisposed, so I would ask if anyone has these to send them to me?? WH_SUB.DAT ZUIGER.DAT TAPBASE.DAT L_WHEEL.DAT Thanks! Eric (25 years ago, 15-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: removing a spring from the pneumatic pump
 
You can work the spring off the top of the plunger by pulling on it and unscrewing it over the knob on the plunger. It will distort the spring slightly, but it can be reinstalled in a reverse manner and still work well. -- Bob Fay (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: where to find discontinued sets?
 
S@H phone specials can be found by following the link on the Lugnet home page. I just purchased two sub kits (the ones from a couple years back with the pneumatic arms) for $25.00 a piece.

  An incredible site!
 
Every once in a while I find a site that displays some very inspiring creations, but hasn't been mentioned here (that I've seen). This is one of those times: (URL) impressive is his huge Ninja fortress. Just enormous, and very well-thought-out. (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jan-00, to lugnet.general)

  [FS] eBay 5561 big foot 4x4 MI<banged up>B
 
Well, before I bought 20 of these today (hope they come) I put one up on eBay. This is a banged up one I got at KB earlier this week and I paid 40 plus MA tax. Joke's on me, I put it up on eBay for a buck and it's languishing at 26 bucks! So if you (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

  Re: Rechargable battery questions
 
I use an external battery pack whenever possible/practical. It has 8 (not 6) NiMh cells, providing a total of 9.6 volts. Works fine. Actually, it produces a little more power than ordinary batteries. You need a socket for external power on the RCX (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Saw some 6250s and 6296s on sale today.
 
As I said, they were $30 Canadian ($20 US). That's not too bad, particularly for the 6250 (Cross Bones Clipper). Anyone interested? -- Paul Davidson (25 years ago, 15-Jan-00, to lugnet.pirates)
 
  I saw 6097 for $40 today.
 
That's a pretty good deal, right? Anyone want it? Shipping will probably be killer, though, it's a huge box. -- Paul Davidson (25 years ago, 15-Jan-00, to lugnet.castle)
