Minifig scale is what I had in mind, because that way it will fit into my current line of mecha. Though it could easily be considered a microfig tank. In minifig form it would be a troop support light mecha. Remote operated or just autonomous. (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Thanks! Actually, the ship only needed 2 arctic base sets (bought on sale of course--wise man say don't pay full price for LEGO). Each set has 6 grey window-walls, so my ship has 12. Also, I needed 2 sets of the mobile arctic base, but used 6 (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.starwars)

Yep, and if you combine those high-speed, high-precision pressure regulators with low stiction cylinders and a fast PID controller you can get even better accuracy and repeatability.

There are six legs that can each rotate out a full 180 degrees. Each lower leg swings along a click hinge. I picture it being some sort of small troop support mecha that is operated by remote. It won't be completely finshed until I can replace the (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hi everybody! I was idly flipping through my copy of The Ultimate LEGO book the other day and I noticed a little bit of trivia on page 8. It says that two 2x4 bricks can be combined in 24 ways, three bricks: 1060 ways, and six bricks: 102,981,500 (...) (24 years ago, 24-Mar-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)
