  Re: You wouldn't want one of these landing at your Airport!
 
Don't feel too bad; my Father once built outta my legos (as a kid) a big-ass (can I say ass on here?) plane that almost looked like one of those cargo planes with propellers. I think I have a photo of the model stuffed into my boxes, so if I can dig (...) (25 years ago, 12-Mar-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town)
 
  You wouldn't want one of these landing at your Airport!
 
I was planning to build a realistic minifig scale Jumbo 747, then I figured out the dimensions of it, consequently I quit the whole project, because: A: It would be near 30 studs wide(God knows what that would be with the wings!) B: It would also be (...) (25 years ago, 12-Mar-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town)

  Containers
 
I've been on and off thinking about containers (for ships, trucks, and trains). One of the things I'm wondering is if all the LEGO sets which have containers use the same dimensions? The other thing I'm wondering is if I should set my own standards (...) (25 years ago, 12-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
