Jason, It is possible to connect baseplates into a larger structure, you just can't attach to the bottom of the baseplate, as you said. You can attach to the top of the baseplates... If you build a wall that is at least 2 wide, and is larger than (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.build)

6x16, AFAIK - both plates with studs all over, and plates with studs only on the perimeter of 3 sides. Unless the grandstands are REALLY heavy, you can just surround the top of the locker room with 2x16 plates on 2 sides and misc plates on the other (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.build)

Very impressive. Were the taller buildings structurally strong? It looks like the largest building was four walls with an open interior -- did the walls bow in or out? I like Henry's white temple building quite a bit. The whole thing is inspiring. (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.build)
