|
|
For many years, on and off, we have run trains around the tree. First in HO, then in LGB G scale, and last year I had a small one around a tiny tree in my apt in Detroitland. Well, this year I have a LOT more parts to build with and plan to do (...) (26 years ago, 15-Nov-98, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

More than enough in black, now - I have about 40 "spare" 2441 chassis from spare cahssis, 12+ 2886s, and 22 2535s. So maybe I need to make a bomb disposal robot, and some other things. Hmmmm..... But I STILL need WHITE, BLUE, and GREEN 2441 chassis (...) (26 years ago, 14-Nov-98, to lugnet.build)

Well, I have "finished" my SWAT semi. I lengthened it 10 studs, which really makes it too long, but TOUGH, I like the way it looks ;-) It is at (URL) , though it will be moving to my work site tomorrow. The VFAQ link will still work, though, as it (...) (26 years ago, 13-Nov-98, to lugnet.build)

(...) Well, a very, very small one, perhaps. But otherwise I was quite happy to see that it fitted very nicely. On the other hand, there _is_ a gap just in front of the 6L sloped technic beam. So that pilot needs to wear a space suit, I suppose! :-) (...) (26 years ago, 10-Nov-98, to lugnet.build)

I just made my very first non-technic LEGO model since my childhood this weekend, and thought I might post it here. I wanted to make use of the 2x4x4 trans blue cylinder I have, and I also wanted some interesting canopy. So I thought, why not (...) (26 years ago, 9-Nov-98, to lugnet.build)

To get a really good idea, examine skeletal and muscular structures of animals. All animal limbs use ball & socket joints. This can be reproduced in lego. To simulate muscles, the best way is to use the Flex system. Study the movements of a dog or (...) (26 years ago, 7-Nov-98, to lugnet.build)
