 | | Re: WTBOT: red 1x14 bricks
|
| (...) To the best of my knowledge, the only 1x14 brick TLG has produced is the brick with a slot down one side that is part of the garage door ass'y. One of the 1999 ninja sets uses one of these, not as a garage door part, but just as a basic brick. (...) (26 years ago, 23-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

|
| (...) Thanks Jeff. That 7740 Intercity Train is also the one that has those rare grey 2x2 windows. You're right about the blue corner slopes. It's a Ninja (I knew it was a 1999 set) set that has them. Gary Istok (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.build)

| (...) Which makes me ask something I have wondered for a while... why is that piece called a "gable end" piece when when it's used for making a roof that has no gables?? Kevin (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.build)

| | Re: Yellow Low Sloped Corner Bricks?

| (...) I think it's called "gabled" because it is an otherwise normal 1x2 roof piece with a gabled overhang on one side, ie a vertical triangle like a gabled roof. So that name refers to the appearance of the piece not it's actual function which is (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jun-99, to lugnet.build)

| (...) Right, gotcha. Sorry for the confusion. I agree with you, the name "gable end" for that piece is confusing. What's better? 1x2 hip roof end? 1x2 half pyramid? Or the LDRAW name, Slope Brick 45 1 x 2 Triple? I don't know. John C. ps. To muddy (...) (25 years ago, 5-Jun-99, to lugnet.build)
