 | | Re: A fan no more

| (...) You expressed several good points including some I had. I think a lot of the rants are coming from people who remember the first technic models and how easily they could mix basic parts in technic models and vice versa. Today it is a bit (...) (20 years ago, 12-Jul-04, to lugnet.general)

| | Re: A fan no more
|
| (...) It's not that I'm bothered about so much. It's the gratuitous use of liftarms where standard technic bricks could be used to better effect. However, it's no use trying to dig myself out of a hole. I can hear the mention of 8466, 8455, 8448, (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jul-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) It's true that it's not recommended. The TECHNIC hole is smaller in diameter than the inside of a 1x1 round brick, which is what allows TECHNIC pins to be inserted into round bricks without damaging the split tip. That doesn't mean it doesn't (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jul-04, to lugnet.general)

There wasn't room to squeeze any studded TECHNIC parts in, and the handlebars/side flares are (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jul-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| The next SMART meeting will be on July 31st, at DigiPen. We'll be doing "Milkman" as our minichallenge -- a looped track of 3/4" black line with markers (2" long pieces put across the line) to mark locations to drop off a milk bottle (a stack of (...)

Every time this subject comes up, I keep hoping to see some more specific instances where the old-style TECHNIC works better, but all I ever see is "everything". It's clearly not true, or (...)

Discounting the CA bricks which have known deterioration problems, I put together 4 stacks of 10 ABS bricks, 2 red and 2 white. I made sure I picked out the "best (...)

Besides, if my stacks reduced the error, doesn't that mean the older bricks are actually likely to have worse (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jul-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.color, lugnet.general, FTX)
