(...) Ahoy Sean! If you're just bridging the two baseplates with a bridge, then the best idea would be to *not* try and join them. Keep them seperate (it makes moving the MOC much easier), and just place the bridge between them when they're joined. (...) (22 years ago, 29-Sep-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.build)
