I just discovered a simple technique today for doing odd brick width SNOT, thus getting around the 2 in the 5:2 rule. I couldn't think of having seen it before so maybe it is new (although it seems unlikely). Anyway, I thought I'd share it since I (...)

I also added a shock to the downward joint to limit how far the joint can expand. There still (...) (19 years ago, 23-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

The vertical-launch system between the smokethrowers is also amazing--a detail I may try to develop further at some point. Also, I meant "LAMPS/sensor turrets", seeing that the chin and dorsal units are the same... LFB (19 years ago, 23-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
