  Re: bricks upside down
 
(...) You can reduce this gap by using half-pegs instead (the ones with a stud on one end instead of another peg). This tends to be a bit loose, though. If you have the space and don't want outward signs, you could use a pair of <part:6232> "Brick 2 (...) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New building (Tan)
 
(...) That cornice design is *stunning*. Bram's right, that's a great use of obscure parts. The 1x4 tiles with 5-finger hinge are also really neat--what set did those come from in bulk? (...) I see! I hope you'll produce more--the tan/brown/white (...) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.general)

John & All, (...) have been trying to get some of those parts, like the 1x4 tan hinge. It is truly a great building! Can't wait to see more! Scott S. -- (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.general)

  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)

  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)

  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)

  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)
