(...) Gee, thank Fredrik. I have to admit that it's sometimes more satisfying to do a decent small scale model than a giant Technic or RCX creation. If only my kids would keep their LEGO in the darned PLANO boxes it would be faster to build neat (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.build)

With all of the semi trucks posted recently, I thought I'd add my little cabover semi to the group. What makes this one different is that it's only four studs wide and looks decent! It has a tilting cab, an engine, exhaust stacks, etc.... (URL) (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.build)

Seconded. If you can write the exam before you start the class and get an A, you should just place out of the class and take a different one. If you can't do that, pay attention to each and every class. Physics is important. (not as important as (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.build)

G'Day I find for really long trailers (100+ studs) technic beams placed side by side staggered and pegged together and plates over top gives a really strong floor. ( I just can not get any higher because I run out of bricks :)). For a trailer hitch (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.build)

(...) Speaking of which, I'm finally getting around to that. The trailer is 24x96 studs, so I'll be widening a spare 5571 to match (may lengthen it a bit too, and will definitely add a Technic engine). You don't even want to know how many 1x16 black (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.build)

(...) That´s easy: 1. You attach the model to a string. 2. Get a friend to hold the string (and the model) completely still. Now he can´t do that, so your pic will come up all blurry ;-) --Tobias (25 years ago, 12-Oct-99, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
