  New building (Tan)
 
Timing, as they say, is everything, so in many ways even the idea of playing with LEGO seems a little absurd in light of recent events, but life will go on for us and there's nothing that any despicable coward can do that will conquer our (...)

  Re: bricks upside down
 
(...) I have used 1x1 bricks with the recessed side stud to attach groups of bricks at right angles. While I haven't tried 180 degrees - it should be doable - but may be bulky. (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New, Non-Violent Mecha MOC
 
thanks. I used joint desgns that I found here: (URL) (although my wrist is a bit different, the pieces into which the "fingers" are plugged are topped with a 2x1 with center stud, which is attached to the back of a 1x1 headlight brick. I couldn't (...) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: P-51 Mustang,
 
(...) Geordan, Wow, this looks great, though I couldn't see the cockpit well enough to see the 2x2 brown plate. One minor quibble, should the radiator scoop be more pronounced, or did it vary with the different models? Thanks, George (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.military)
 
  Civilian stuff
 
(URL) JX3, JC10, AS4. New: Police Stinger and Scooterbug. PLMKWYT of the New stuff :-P P.S. I added a comment on the Index, and a link to the Missing Man formation wallpaper. Rick (URL) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Help ?
 
(...) Depends how big you want it. If you build a wall of just 1x2 bricks you can bend it, but the radius is pretty big. If you alternate 1x3 bricks and 1x1 round bricks though, you can build a cylinder about 6" in diameter which might be OK for (...) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: LSM-003A Intruder (First completed mecha)
 
(...) Gundam & Armored Core are my biggest influences. I really like the mono eye of most Jion Mobile suits and it helped keep the head small. (...) I plan to build larger minifig scale mecha eventually. I definitlly felt confined by the size (...) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Mini-mech MOC
 
Hi all, I haven't really delved into Mecha yet, but I made this little micro-scale mech from a couple sets on my desk at work. It turned out to a neat little Anti-Aircraft mech so I snapped a couple of shots. Sean (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)
 
  Interesting
 
I just got the new S@H catalog and was checking out the Harry Potter stuff and noticed what looks like 2 Bionicle . . . "balls", for lack of a better term, atop the train platform. They are light grey. (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: P-51 Mustang,
 
(...) I wanted to build the plane first and then add in details after if I could, managed to get most of the stuff I wanted in there and still keep it looking like a P-51, which was lucky! (...) Thanks Gary! -Geordan- (...) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.military)
 
  Re: P-51 Mustang,
 
(...) Thanks, I think I went a little overboard on them though, maybe slightly beyond realistic, oh well, it was fun! ;-D It looks like a P-51D to me-- (...) Woohoo! that's the best comment ever!

  Re: Pictures of Subway Station
 
Nice, platform in a curve. Don't forget to have some "mind the gap" signs up there... ;-) Jeroen (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  bricks upside down
 
What is your favourite way to connect bricks upside down? Bricks upside down is commonly useful in buildings eg. for putting arches upside down. Do you simply use tiles and slot in the bricks without any connection? One method I can see is using the (...) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: P-51 Mustang,
 
(...) D-Day stripes into the scheme. It looks like a P-51D to me-- it couldn't be mistaken for anything else! That reminds me...it's time to get back to building. I'm too spent from this week. I need to recharge. Thanks for your wonderful model. LFB (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.military)

  Technic figure scale armed V-tol.
 
Another MOC that you have to comment on! Made it be know that this was NOT inspired by the Solotrek personal craft, but rather by the two amazing lego v-tols by Mark and Bram. The propeler surrounds are the only thing similar to the solotrek (...) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
