 | | Re: Scoop what?
|
| Faceted beads scoop well with the LEGO front-end loader, back hoe, and Technic seat. The 8mm size works better than the 6mm size. LEGO Shop at Home (telephone 1-800-453-4652 anytime) sells the front-end and backhoe scoops in Service Pack #5284 for (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)

| (...) O.K., I did it, and it WORKS! Here are the details (I wish I had a digital camera, or LDRAW right now): On a 32 X 32 baseplate, I constructed three walls using several 1 X 4, 1 X 6, and 1 X 8 bricks, four 1 X 4 hinge bricks, and two 1 X 8 (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.build)

| (...) The easiest way for me to answer this would that I would certainly consider making another clock (or any other sculpture) for a commission. You are right, the cost would be high... not only to cover the bricks, but just for the time involved (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general)

| (...) Once again, it's proved that while special pieces are cool, nothing beats a massive quantity of good ol' bricks to build something great. So now... what are you going to do with BLUE bricks? -Tom McD. when replying, spamcake was rationed in (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)
| | | | | Re: LEGO grandfather clock
|
| At the risk of being pilloried, (but I gotta know), would you consider selling the clock (or a clock)? [ok, so that is really two, quite different questions] Actually the real question I had in mind was... had you thought about putting it up for (...)

| | | | | Re: Using an RCX
|
| (...) You should post a few pictures of your clock mechanism. I would really like to see how you incorporated the RCX with the pendulum in your design. This idea seems more practical for a long term running clock then having to wind up weights every (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

I was wondering about a couple of things, though: -How did you make that double staircase? It's truly amazing and if you could (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle)
| | | | | Using an RCX
|
| Good idea, I have built a prototype pendulum clock using the RCX that has a realistic tick tock sound and swinging pendulum. Instead of weights it uses the RCX to give the pendulum a 'kick' every second, this allows it to run indefinetly. Now I just (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

| (...) Great job Eric! Until now, I had never thought of LEGO as practical furniture, but you have proven otherwise! I really like your "broken pendiment" chippendale top.
