  Tiles (was Re: Smooth Plates)
 
Oops! How did I do that? Yes, I meant tiles, of course. The set 6584 has 14 1 x 6 *tiles* like I described, not plates. I must have read the subject line and got confused. (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Smooth Plates
 
(...) FWIW, they are often called tiles to avoid ambiguity. Just thought I'd mention it. -Tom McD. when replying, <spam><spam><spam> huh? what's wrong with my gun? (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Smooth Plates
 
(...) Just for the record (although I wouldn't recommend this set to anyone for any other reason :-) Set 6584 Extreme Team Challenge includes four gray 1 x 6 plates and ten yellow 1 x 6 plates with wooden board pattern. And lots of other annoying (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Perfect cubes of LEGO (-:
 
(...) Check out the Homemaker sets (1974-1982), as they use tiles fo the countertops and tabletops (at least in my 2 sets they do). I've seen mostly red and white..... Charles (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Perfect cubes of LEGO (-:
 
I realize this might not be news to many of you but bear with me. I have just realized that the smallest perfect cube that you can make out of LEGO is 16 millimeters on a side. The best way to make one is a 2 x 2 tile (part 3068) on top of a 2 x 2 (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Pat's new PodRacer...
 
(...) I have to admit that the engines of this ship (and pod racer) are very derivitive of the engines used on Sebulba's pod racer (in the Mos Espa Set). I did modify several things, but I can't take credit for incorperating 'those solid balloon (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jul-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build, lugnet.publish)

  Re: keeping models together

  Re: Anybody ever built weapon replicas?
 
I build a lot of future military stuff, such as laser cannons, mech's, missile trucks, and the like. I just use the normal bullhorns and other Lego pieces for weapons. Scott Sanburn (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jul-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: keeping models together
 
(...) Does Elmer's also work for reapplying old stickers in a pretty permanent fashion? Or has somebody had success with other kinds of glue? I've asked this question myself before without response, and I believe somebody else also asked it recently (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jul-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)
