  Re: PCS Magnolia
 
(...) This was the toughest thing about the design. I didn't try to fight it (much). I wanted to have wide viewports on the sides and yet have the pod/bubble be low profile, which meant it had to be lowered and look sealed onto the ship. Using (...)

  Re: PCS Magnolia
 
(...) The only (visual) problem I have with it is the square-y (word?) blockiness of the opening around the pod. The other problem with it is, that now that I've seen it, I just can't sit down and try to build a spaceship of my own. I don't have the (...)

  Re: PCS Magnolia
 
(...) Wow Spammy!!!!!! That is one fine vessel, I think the "Flying" General Lee and the "boys" are going to have some fine trouble laying low with something like that on their tails. The design is complex (very snotty) and pulls off these seemingly (...) (20 years ago, 18-Sep-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Help needed: my custom beards
 
(...) Big Ben Bricks LLC seems to have done well enough with their first wheel product to introduce additional ones. (uninformed speculation as to how they are doing financially, not my business) Little Armory seems to be doing VERY well with their (...)

  Re: Help needed: my custom beards
 
(...) Do you remember what the machine looked like? Check out my Brickshelf folder for pictures of two I've used. (URL) The 3DSystems one makes resin parts, which might have been the ones you didn't like. OTOH it holds detail really well, so maybe (...)

  Re: MSM-01
 
(...) Hey N-Dog. Thanks for the werdz. I didnt have this made at the time of the meetings. I have a sister model of this one now too. Its a blue variant also Robotech influenced. I kinda like the covers though. It keeps it Robotechish. If I could (...) (20 years ago, 18-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: As seen on eBay...
 
(...) That is sooooo funny! When I saw a picture of a real life occurance of the same thing, it was gross, but when it's done in LEGO, it's hilarious. (20 years ago, 18-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.minifigs, FTX)
 
  Re: PCS Magnolia
 
(...) Excellent ship! My favorite parts are the 2X2X2 clear slopes as windows and the white minifig legs just past the X-pod part. Nice SNOT work all over. (20 years ago, 18-Sep-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Re: PCS Magnolia
 
Yee-haw. That thar is one purdy piece of PCS, pardner. Kudos on the swoosh-factor. It's just so slick! As for the interior, I'll let you know what i think when I figure out what's going on (it couldn't be SNOT cabinetry...?) The hood ornament and (...)

  PCS Magnolia
 
With the continuing success of PCS forces, I've been asked to step in and regulate the ever-increasing amount of civilian traffic. Meet my ship, the Magnolia! Ain't she a beaut?

  As seen on eBay...
 
Hello! (URL) me, I'm a link!>> Bye Jojo (URL) P.S. I've created this some weeks or even monts ago and only now found it again. Just thought I'd post something to this minifigs-newsgroup. (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.build.minifigs, FTX)  
 
  Re: A window using SNOT and SNIR techniques
 
Dang! You beat me - I'm working on a similar kind of window... (...) I'm using transclear 1x1 and 1x2 for the glasses, with studs out to make them look like crown glass, and I use two plates stacked on each other to improve the overall stability of (...)

  Re: A window using SNOT and SNIR techniques
 
(...) Thanks :) Hum, I'm sure there is still a lot of building techniques. I made a presentation at BricMania about one, ToPLeSs, and I have to finish the traduction in english to post it. (...) That was an idea from Didier. It was just a fake. But (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)
 
  Re: A window using SNOT and SNIR techniques
 
(...) Thanks :) Well, it depends maybe of our vision of what is SNIR. The 1x1 parts are not adjacent but in diagonal. And the alignment of the turned parts creates an offset. So we obtain a lign of studs, not in the standard way but in diagonal. (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: A window using SNOT and SNIR techniques
 
(...) I beleive the phase comes about because they started off not in a a row (well not in a standard row anyway), the second image shows them placed on a diagonal grid of SIR (Studs In a Row). However I would say that they have ended up in a (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: A window using SNOT and SNIR techniques
 
(...) Hi Holger. Thanks for showing interest on JoTaALM. In a first attempt, the idea was to make an hoax just for fun, as the one I made when I was studying chemistry at university (not LEGO related). Of course volume I doesn't exist. I can't tell (...)

  Re: A San Francisco Street - complete with hill and houses
 
Hello! I just discovered San Francisco Street on brickshelf. And I have to say: I love it. I haven't been in SF but this model fully transports the character of the city. There are no details missing - except a car or a FedEx van (and a cable car). (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)
 
  Re: A window using SNOT and SNIR techniques
 
(...) Hello, great work! Sometimes I think everything is build in all kind of building techniques. But you show us that there are even more great ways to combine LEGO bricks. I love that kind of window, there is a good chance to find it in a new (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)
 
  Re: A window using SNOT and SNIR techniques
 
(...) Hey Mike, I believe it is Studs Not In Row. Cool window, but it doesn't look like it is very sturdy. Chris Perron (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, FTX)
