 | | New MOC: Red Building

Nothing too earth-shattering here, but I did have some fun with the use of different textures (with some creative assistance from my son Ross). Check out the facade across the top-- all minifig legs:-) The uh, rear is even better-- looks like a moon (...) (22 years ago, 21-May-02, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.trains.org)

Nice Merry-Go-Round... (URL) interesting creations on the site as well (like the jumping dolphins). (This is something I stumbled upon while looking for something else) Ray (22 years ago, 21-May-02, to lugnet.build)

(...) Hi, I build mostly in a castle theme, but I buy across themes for pieces and minifigs that fit my building plans. Often this is outside of pure Castle, e.g. Star Wars and Harry Potter have good parts for my purposes, and I got some Western (...) (22 years ago, 21-May-02, to lugnet.build)

Scott & All, (Gotta like those Scott's!) : ) (...) The only odd question is the one that is not asked. (...) No. I buy a multitude of different sets, depending on price and part selection. EX: Soccer, Studios - Don't like the theme, but the parts (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.build)

I know this is an odd question but I am curious how everyone collects? Do you collect just the sets you like? Do you collect a favorite "system"? Do you collect just the systems you "MOC" in? Do you collect sets more for "parts shopping" rather than (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.build)

We have a visitor this month from Japan. It's Ken's Great Aunt Fumiko Takara. She saw the Lego version of us all and thought it would be nice if there was one of her too. Soo... I made her one. It's pretty exact except her hair is stark white. I (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

Hi all, More Ice Planet-y goodness! This time around it's the Snowman, a light utility/combat mecha. Wide feet and a low profile make it easy to manuever on ice.

When I first decided to do this progect. I was thinking it would be harder to do. But to get the idea of what I did, I made a 5 and half wide section. Then offset that to the train car. And that is how the 1/4th stud offset was accomplished. All (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.build)

(...) I'd say your way is pretty good! That's a clever idea, taking half the offset on each side that way. People have also demonstrated 1/5 stud offsets as well, (IIRC Gianluca Morelli did I think), so using these two together it ought to be (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.build)

I was wondering if anyone else has come up with a good way to do 1/4th stud offsets. Normaly an offset is done with this part. (URL) that gets you half a stud. Since LEGO parts seem to always fit together so nicely its hard to get a minute offset. I (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.build)
