  Re: "Aggressor", power armor dropship
 
(...) I think there's a parallel between building mechs and building cargo ships, because the inside (either the joint tech or the cargo space) dictates what you can do with the outside. Thanks for the comments, Mark, glad you liked it! (20 years ago, 21-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: "Aggressor", power armor dropship
 
(...) (Blush), thanks! And I agree with you about Mark's "Pioneer". I just checked his gallery again, and I think you could maybe park my "Aggressor" inside the cargo container. (...) I actually thought carefully about those white curved slopes. I (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: "Aggressor", power armor dropship
 
(...) The top turret was kind of a doodle that just turned out really well. (I shoulda showed you guys the turret that came in second place and got scrapped--yuck!) (...) I dunno about that. Looking at your Brickshelf folder, you've obviously got (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: MOC4100: Cranetruck
 
(...) Don't sell yourself short. :) Creating good models with a limited selection of parts is an artform... if you ask me. With a large (I hesistate to use the word 'unlimited') selection of parts even an average builder can likely create more or (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)

  Re: Johnny five IS alive - first MOC
 
Hi Stefan, I've seen bits and pieces of this as you've posted them to Brickshelf, but it's great the see Johnny in all his glory. I can't wait to see this completed. I hope that eventually you're able to post movies of him in action. Bruce (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Johnny five IS alive - first MOC
 
(...) Perhaps switching to 2x plates instead of 4x for the tread surfaces would help - this would help to smooth the curve around the wheels, at the cost of almost doubling the number of hinges you would need to add. Otherwise, love this MOC. Great (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Johnny five IS alive - first MOC
 
(...) You might find that spreading the hinge plates wider on the tread shoes will help. Having them near the centre increases the "twisting" effect if there are forces near the edge of the shoes. Also, having 3 per shoe instead of 2 may help - mine (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: MOC4100: Cranetruck
 
(...) Well Stefan, I try to do my best to come up with alternate models my own because often I'm not really impressed by the official ones. So if you say that the LEGO designers need to work harder I won't disagree with that... ;-) Nathanael (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Re: MOC4100: Cranetruck
 
(...) I'm glad you've enjoyed it! Hopefully the models inspire people and make them enthusiastic. I hope too some designers will notice them. ;-) Nathanael (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
