  Steerable town rig
 
I've made a very small rig to the scale of the minifigs. It has articulated central steering, which is operated by turning the yellow light on the top. There are very cursory instructions provided, which means that you need to work a bit if you want (...) (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.build, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: How to produce building instructions for your own creations
 
(...) I'm not suprised my idea was not original at all. It's so common to discover some other people got the same idea before you. I considered it a "joke" as I suppose the resulting movie looks a bit strange and unreal, but at a second thought I (...) (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: 5151 Steep Sloped Bricks (45 deg)
 
Thanks for the tips! I have it all figured out now. Something so simple as LEGO bricks can bring such complicated solutions. Well, it's simple really. Sometimes the simple things are the hardest to see. I suppose that is why we build! Build On! (and (...) (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: How to produce building instructions for your own creations
 
(...) Mario meant that as a joke?!? No way -- that technique is a serious technique. It has been suggested before in very serious contexts, going back to the ATL days. I think David Karr was the first one to discover it. He used it to document the (...) (25 years ago, 18-May-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.build)

Hey all, While looking for more building inspiration, I came across this Web site: (URL) the wide range of material, almost-exhaustive links, and detailed close-ups can't get your noggin designing new Lego models, you should check your pulse. :-, (...) (25 years ago, 17-May-99, to lugnet.build)

(...) Mario, Great idea! But wrong newsgroup. This belongs in lugnet.build. (Crossposting there now, with followups set there...) lugnet.off-topic.* is for off-topic (non-LEGO) discussions, and your post is quite on-topic to LEGO. --Todd (25 years ago, 17-May-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: LEGO Sears Tower @ Chicago O'Hare Airport
 
You know, now that I think about it, I may have my towers mixed up. It might be a model of the Hancock after all. It has been a while since I have been downtown Chicago. Mike - mike_walsh@mentorg.com (URL) Pieniazek wrote in message (...) (25 years ago, 17-May-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

(...) This tower is similar (But I think, bigger...) to the one that is in the Duplo(tm) area at the Museum of Science and Industry. They have a Hancock too. (25 years ago, 16-May-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: 5151 Steep Sloped Bricks (45 deg)
 
there is a turn corner gable brick. if you want tee or cross you can also use the brick that is like a 1 x 2 gable brick with a slope on the end. this fits against another slope and you can use that. (25 years ago, 16-May-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  5151 Steep Sloped Bricks (45 deg)
 
I got some red roof bricks from S@H and as I was trying to build a (small) roof structure, and noticed that there is not a brick that will turn a corner at the ridge of a hip roof (or gabled roof for that matter). There is also not a brick that will (...) (25 years ago, 16-May-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: LEGO Sears Tower @ Chicago O'Hare Airport
 
I am already back home. Wouldn't you know that one of the last things I did before I left this morning was take my digital camera out of my bag before I went to Chicago. So, no pictures this time but I go through O'Hare frequently enough (at least (...) (25 years ago, 15-May-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

This sounds terrific, Mike. I wish you had taken a pic, as I try to avoid O'Hare, and since I am in Saint Louis, its easy to do. Maybe on your way back, I hope? -- Have fun!
