  Re: New Mecha and LDraw Files
 
Mladen, I really like this one. Love the legs, very Gundam. And I can see that you're back to one of your favorite color schemes! And you're right, that Bazooka rocks! Another great "real world" model from you. Later, Bryce (...) (22 years ago, 16-Aug-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Quite possibly. It's the thicker one that works out right for the 1/10 stud offset ... <dr. evil> I don't know chronologies </dr. evil> -s (22 years ago, 16-Aug-02, to lugnet.build, lugnet.pirates)

  Re: SNOT Fractional Offsets
 
(...) I checked these out last night. The new version, with the thin center ring, results in a flush surface. That is, the center ring is 1/2 plate thick, so that a tile on either side ends up flush with the 1x1 plate. The old ones, however, have a (...)

  Re: Chrysler Building - My Version
 
Funny you should mention GCT, Jonathan... I tried it once after seeing it in the Ultimate Lego Book... and gave up. Seeing Chrysler in the Book and then in person at the TRU in Times Sq. was the true impetus... I sat down one night and measured out (...) (22 years ago, 16-Aug-02, to lugnet.build)

  Re: A-10 model in the brick!
 
I should have posted this sooner, but I'd like to say that Bryan did a fantastic job on the A-10. Mark is absolutely correct in that Bryan had only simple jpeg screenshots to aid him in the building of his model. I'd have been impressed with how (...)

But I think one can always keep tweaking a mech :) I've got 5 pictures (combined 500KB) at my site: (URL) me know what you (...) (22 years ago, 15-Aug-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: SNOT Fractional Offsets

Hi Shaun - Wow, pretty advanced stuff. I think I learned some new techniques from your original post - thanks! I'm at work and don't have any pieces in front of me, but I'll try to address your questions... (...) 0.25? Not any way that I know of. (...) (22 years ago, 15-Aug-02, to lugnet.build)

(...) 1/10 (...) As a followup to my own inquiry, is the bracket on the "1x2 plate w/ 1x4 bracket" ((URL) 1/10 of a stud thick? An easy way to check this would be if the bracket, plus one plate, plus one tile is the same thickness as a brick is (...) (22 years ago, 15-Aug-02, to lugnet.build)
