(...) Thin walls. Here's my solution, only problem being it requires a 1x2 orange thin wall. I don't think they exist (yet). I just built this on a 4x4 plate to try it out, hopefully you can follow along. On your black 4x4 plate at the center edge, (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

I'm personally still planning on building a 747-400 to MF scale... I've figured out the dimentions (6' X 5') and while i'm not anywhere near close to starting.... i'm finding that the windows (!!) and 500 chairs will be hard to come by :) especially (...)

Way back when, I discovered this use for these parts after I'd accidentally broken a few. Even as I kid, I was too perfectionist to intentionally break my toys. Consequently I never had enough to do much with. A few years later, Tyco block sets had (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.build)

(...) Yea, with a wide enough area, one could use the 2x2/2x2 brackets. It would need a depth of 4 for each side though (meaning a container at least 8 wide). There might also be ways to use the 1x1 brick with studs on all 4 sides. Unfortuantely, to (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
