 | | Suggest scale modeling newsgroup
|
|
Are there any feelings about whether there would be enough interest in a new newsgroup for discussion about scale modeling of real objects? I don't know where this would fit best in the newsgroup heirarchy; I leave that to the experts. I could see (...) (21 years ago, 26-Sep-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

There have been a lot of LEGO Factory postings in .cad, but since discussion of LEGO Factory could encompass .cad, .lego and various .market topics, I think it deserves its own newsgroup.

There's already a lot of talk about LEGO Factory, scattered throughout the LUGNET hierarchy. I suggest a new group, probably at the root level (i.e. lugnet.factory). Best, Joe (21 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, FTX)

(...) Yes Dave is right. Dave and Eric Strand have been digging up lots of obscure Samsonite sets that were sold by department stores. As an example a 1969 Sears catalog shows set #49-C-4418, which is a 335 piece basic set. Not exactly a user (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jun-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) I agree Jojo, There are a few regular Lego sets that have rather strange numbers. The (Denmark Only) education sets of the 1960's are an example. You have "Terapi" sets "I", "II" and "III", and "S/8" sets and "K/12" sets. Gary Istok (21 years ago, 18-Jun-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)
