  4- vs. 6- vs. 8-wide debate redux (Was: Re: Containers)
 
(Okay, this is posted to .build _only_, because it has no relation to trains whatsoever. It has nothing to do with containers either, only the ongoing 4- vs. 6- vs. 8- wide controversy.) I was just thinking this morning how I need to build some (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Containers
 
(...) Hehehe, now *that* would be fascinating... It does however go online April 1st. (Ackkk! I know, I know! but I have to wait for the machine it will be on to be configured!) I am considering going ahead and launching Pallas Spaceworks early, on (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

Frank catches me in an apparent error... (...) 2148 is what I typed. Trust me. Nefarious forces must have incremented it by two at some point. :-) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Containers
 
(...) I think 6-wide makes much more impressive trucks. You can always make doors out of plates, using a few <part:2540 1x2 plates w/ handle> and <part:4085 plate 1x1 w/ vert. clip> to create hinges. If you're feeling really ambitious, go (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

Mladen, I really like this one, it's very "Ghost in the Shell". Good design! I've got the urge to build some insect-inspired mecha some time soon. -Dave Jr. (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Sidebar stuff
 
(...) I don't know whether Todd or Suzanne have, but I was so taken with the Victorian house floor plans that I went ahead and built one. I've got a ground floor, second floor and loft (attic). It lacks a basement, but perhaps I'll get to that (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

  Re: Containers
 
(...) Mindspring is just fine (I can access it from work). (...) Ah, now I see. I may use that for a few containers which open. That solution won't work for the Selbulba tile though since the thin walls aren't split in color, and it doesn't manage (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Containers
 
(...) I have a feeling I'm going to go with 6 wide. TLC is making more and more 6 wide trucks (now if only they'd make some truck wheels suited for double wheel arrangements other than the 2x2 hubs - technic or standard). I only have a few of those (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

  Re: Containers
 
(...) I may end up doing that, though I would like for the containers to be able to be stacked beside each other. Of course I haven't seen a solution yet which I have all the necessary orange parts, my solution so far comes the closest (since I (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
