(...) There was something that seemed a little off about the upper body in the previous version, and your latest mods fixed it. Now it looks a lot like a Neumann mech (which is a good thing). Maybe I'll try out some worm gears in my next mech. (19 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

What are some techniques you use when building a large MOC for display at a show? For instance, with a tall building, do you build it in separable sections and how? For an extensive landscape, do you agonize over how to choose the baseplates so that (...) (19 years ago, 7-Aug-05, to lugnet.build)
