| | Re: Anyone ever tried a B-17 model?
|
| (...) I have been thinking of building one for some time. I have built an F-4 Phantom (minifig Scale). It took about 3 hours (one evening). My guess is you'll need a lot of black slopes and a B-Wing Cockpit windshield. Kev Z #142 (24 years ago, 15-Dec-00, to lugnet.build)

| | Re: Scale - it's all in the aspect ratio

| (...) Careful with your vocabulary. The word "gauge" specifically refers to the distance between the rails. I think you mean "scale". (...) Good way IMO to determine scale. We know that proto is 4' 8 1/2" and so it's easy to figure out. (...) (...) (24 years ago, 11-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)

In fact several were illustrated as wearing this hat with no plume and *reversed* (180 degrees). (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | Scale - it's all in the aspect ratio

| So, I have been reading posts and thinking about tight curves vs large layouts vs long train cars... here's some thoughts to react to... There seems to be several ways to skin this cat. You can determine gauge by starting with: 1) Rail width 2) Rail (...) (24 years ago, 11-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)

| My latest dream: I walk into a Target and naturally head towards the Lego aisle. Only thing is, there isn't *a* Lego aisle. There are four of them. The first two had all of the 2001 sets, ho hum, I was not interested in them, because I happened to (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.general)

| All this talk about the death of the minifig got me thinking. How many different ones are there? Does anyone have them all? And if they do stop making them, look at the positive side. They will command a fortune on eBay! regards lawrence (24 years ago, 4-Feb-01, to lugnet.general)
