(2 URLs) When I started the RSC for the mech-heads back in early 2002, it was with the intent that we'd have a growing resource for all the beautiful slopes, wedges, and canopies that LEGO has released recently. It was a nice intent, but without (...) (21 years ago, 3-Jun-03, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.general, lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Yeah, I figured someone else had to think of something like this sometime. I know how to make a gear train that can get it spinning fast enough, but I haven't quite figured out how to make it release well yet. -jrl (21 years ago, 2-Jun-03, to lugnet.build)

I came up with this a little while ago. It's extremely simple, but it's kind of fun and it's the first thing I've seen built of Legos that can actually fly! You can check it out here: (URL) (21 years ago, 2-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build) !

(...) What a great idea! Looks cool too, as it looks organic, and that's tough in LEGO. Needs a rider, though:) Maybe a Sea Monkey...just a goofy thought.Mind if I build one for a SM diorama for Brickfest? I'll credit you, of course. Joe Meno (21 years ago, 2-Jun-03, to lugnet.build, FTX)
