 | | Jamocklaquat - Mission 7 Upper Leg Hex Truss - ABORTED!

|
Hey gang, after I built the intial Hex Truss, I started to build one of the upper Leg modules. I was happy with the way it worked, but in the effort to make a sturdy design, it's size exceeded the design size I was going for. The robust design was (...)

The real question lies not in skin tone, but as to how they will represent some of the more colorful characters in the NBA. Even with Rodman gone, we still have characters like Allan Iverson (famous for throwing his wife naked out of the house) and (...) (22 years ago, 8-Nov-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build.minifigs)

I don't follow the NBA, but I assume the uniform in the photo on the card is his old team from last (...) (22 years ago, 7-Nov-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build.minifigs)

(...) technic-pin part, I have succesfully used a little paper to tighten the rotation. If you mean the fingery parts, I believe the black version of this part is quite a bit stiffer than the other colors. Hope this helps. -jeremiah- (22 years ago, 7-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Greetings all. Long time no post for me. I'm desinging the latest Swarmic creature and I saw all the stuff on how to make joints stiffer by inserting tubing and wire and such into them. I was wondering if anyone has figured out a way to make this (...) (22 years ago, 7-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Not like it matters though, the legs are made for the basketball game, not for use as regular poseable figs. -Tim (22 years ago, 7-Nov-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build.minifigs)
