|
| | | | | | (...) Stevn Combs asked if I would let BimP publish the secret; you can find some spoiler pictures and a summary of the building process there, at (URL) "Models". Enjoy! I'll add to my own web page in a week or so. Andrew (22 years ago, 21-Sep-02, to lugnet.build)

| | | | | (...) Two words: Very cool. How long does it take you guys to put something like that together? How much work do you have to do on paper? (I'm just full of questions, aren't I?) Hasta La Vista, Sean (22 years ago, 19-Sep-02, to lugnet.build)

| | | | | | (...) We thought about the picture on and off for quite a while. I'm not sure how long, because we've been drifting back and forth from one Escher picture to another trying to decide which to do next. In fact, I'd already started a mock-up for (...)

| | | | | (...) Wow! That's brilliant. I'm trying to figure out how it's done. Are the stairs on the right, coming up towards the nearest corner, actually sloping down? Or is there a break in the upper corner, with the edges hidden by those two figures (...) (22 years ago, 19-Sep-02, to lugnet.build)

This one totally baffles me. The central hole between the stairwells is (...) (22 years ago, 19-Sep-02, to lugnet.build)
