  Re: My new Engine: SD70M
 
(...) Yes. And definitely would be impure. If you don't like Lego as a medium, don't use it. :-) Decals are for rebels who secretly wish they were modeling in a different medium. <HUGE FIGHT STARTING GRIN> (25 years ago, 24-Jul-99, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: My new Engine: SD70M
 
Nice job on the SD70M! What might work better for the logo than inlaid red bricks is to go to a hobby shop and pick up some good-quality decals to apply. It will definately give the engine a more prototypical look. -Tim (...) with (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jul-99, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)
 
  Chains and Gears
 
I have long wanted to build a light weight "Z" axis for a machine. This one is the lightest, functional one yet. Check the pictures at the bottom of the page. (URL) Fay rfay@we.mediaone.net The Shop (URL) (25 years ago, 24-Jul-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Volume of 2-3 million bricks (was: GMLTC Modules)
 
Conan has his uncle Chuck. Properly fed and cared for, Chuck can sort way more than 1 brick a second. Trust me. Also, those 2.3 million bricks got sorted over the last 20 years (and a good 300,000 are not sorted as of right now) I dunno about (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

(...) bricks. >With bulk tubs, it might be easy. Try to sort, seperate and store 3 (...) times. (...) It's bad enough having about 2 cubic feet of unsorted LEGO ...and some of it is partially assembled stuff, which takes even longer to sort ...and (...)

  Re: Volume of 2-3 million bricks (was: GMLTC Modules)
 
Todd, Although your math is probably right on (I didn't double check), mine is also not far off. Mine is calculating the number of bulk tubs. It would 1,667 to 2,500 bulk tubs to have that many bricks. Granted, a bulk tub will hold about 2500 bricks (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Big Armored Truck
 
(...) Agreed. If you wash your model after it's built, your gunpowder gets all wet and your upholstery goes all hard and brittle. Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 23-Jul-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Volume of 2-3 million bricks (was: GMLTC Modules)
 
(...) Hmm, that doesn't sound right. If a 2x4 brick takes up .35 in^3, then 10^6 2x4 bricks should take up something like 350,000 in^3, or about 200 ft^3, plus maybe 10%-15% for storage containers. So 3x10^6 2x4 bricks would only about 600-700 ft^3, (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
