  Re: Proportions for a 2001 Monolith in LEGO?
 
(...) DOH! You are right... I was going on the ratio of the brick being 6x6x7, but it's actually 5x5x6. Serves me right for posting something like that without checking first. So...at the *PROPER* LEGO dimensions, the Monolith would then be... (drum (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.build)

(...) I'm not sure I agree. A 1x1 brick is 20 LDU wide and 24 LDU high, ne? (...) 7x20 ldu or 140 ldu wide (...) 28x20 ldu or 560 ldu across (...) 54 x 24 or 1296 ldu high 1296 isn't 9 times 140... or is my math wrong here? I get 1260 as 9*140 I (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.build)
 
  Proportions for a 2001 Monolith in LEGO?
 
Bringing this back to a LEGO oriented discussion... My sincerest apologies if it's still a bit nerd-oriented. In lugnet.off-topic.fun, Larry Pieniazek wrote: ... a brief discussion on clone brand proportions and how they could be used to recreate (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Battleship Project...
 
(...) I used to make custom kits, so I bought a lot of stuff on clearance to get the parts I need. I sold off the excess via Bricklink, but kept most of the gray bricks and plates. My collection mainly consists of monochrome colors. I did buy a LOT (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.build.military)

  Re: My second Mecha

  Re: My second Mecha
 
I thought it was a good mecha. It doesnt cary over many of the shapes that most builders use in mecha, but it still looks awesome, very similar to many japanese builder's styles (good thing :) ) The color scheme is indeed something new, but it (...)

  New creation from the twisted mind of Pat Bunn
 
This MOC does contain the January seed part at its core. My son has dubbed it the Robot King. (URL) RK is very posable with 2 axis rotation in the legs and Pincher arms that twist and raise and lower by the lance pieces sticking up on the back. (...)

  Re: My second Mecha
 
I think its a very nice mecha. The color scheme is very good, the brown, grey and light green are gr8 together. How posable is it, in every picture its simply standing upright. The type of hinges you used dont seem capable of supporting its arms in (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-04, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Big Ugly Yellow Building
 
Is it a mosque? Is it an office building? Who knows! What I know for sure is that it's BIG and YELLOW. This building appeared in IndyLUG's GATS train layout in October 2003 and January 2004.

  Re: 3 ideas I had
 
(...) Ah, my mistake. I can't recall any specific uses of that design that I've seen, but I'd still be surprised if it hasn't been used before by someone (flip it upside-down and it sounds like a neat idea for part of a nano-scale building). I (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 3 ideas I had
 
(...) They do, but they spin freely in the sockets. I'd lean more towards using black friction pins (maybe with black axes to make them less obvious?) which will both grip on the inside of the hub and the axle handle. Er, they grip the axe a bit (...)
