Totally neat build! For what you set out to build, you did great hitting the mark on your goals. Gotta love that name! Seeing all the great use of parts is fun to see on this. Thanks! - Eric (17 years ago, 10-May-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

  Re: Joe Vig and the Ninjas
 
(...) Thanks, Will! I'm not telling you how many ninjas there are. If I told you, they would kill my family, eat my dog, and break my knees, maybe even in that order. (17 years ago, 10-May-07, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)

  Re: Le Corbusier House in Stuttgart Weissenhof Estate form 1927
 
--snip-- (...) Excellent work as usual, HoMa. My favourite touch is using the 1x4x3 clear panels forward and reverse to make 'opening' windows. Genius. Tim (17 years ago, 14-Apr-07, to lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)  
 
  Re: Microscale Minas Tirith
 
Very impressive! And the model captures the city very well (which is of course very subjective). Luckily I have read the books before I saw the films and your version hits my idea of Minas Tirith much more. Andreas (17 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: Chinese pagoda
 
(...) Looks very nice! I especially like the different style railings on each level and the parts used to create them. Best, Jonathan (17 years ago, 13-Apr-07, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build.ancient, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

  Microscale Minas Tirith
 
Hi all, Here is a microscale project I've been working on for a while. Is something truly microscale if it covers six baseplates and is 40 bricks high? Anyway, here is my rendition of (URL) Tirth> (URL) I tried to make an effort to match this to my (...)

  Re: 3 legs and 7 years
 
(...) Hey great! You have been such a shinning star in the Lego Mecha genre. I am glad to see you and your creations continue for all these years, thank you! (...) PFFFFFF!!!! That is pnenomenal! Excellent choice and awesome buiding techniques! You (...) (17 years ago, 12-Apr-07, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Chinese pagoda
 
I constructed this microscale Chinese pagoda as a centerpiece for a dinner party (for 25!) that we hosted two weeks ago. It isn't accurate to any specific pagoda, but is broadly based on some of the techniques and styles I observed in some source (...)

  Re: Displays at Fests
 
(...) I'll link a picture from GMLTC member Bill-2 (that's one of his firetrucks!): (URL) Something like this allows people to get their noses right up next to a model, but still prevents them from picking them up. Maybe Lego still has these (...) (17 years ago, 11-Apr-07, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)
 
  Re: Displays at Fests
 
(...) Another idea might be to change the way the MOC is being presented. The biggest risk at shows I've been to is kids not understanding the toy/can-touch and display/cannot-touch difference. Stanchions and plexiglass both limit how close kids can (...) (17 years ago, 11-Apr-07, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)
 
  Re: Displays at Fests
 
(...) This is a great question. I think a retail display case or a museum case would probably work best. It is an expensive solution for a LUG, but perhaps the venue has some available, or you can pick one up at a store that is going out of (...)

  3 legs and 7 years
 
Hi folks, it's 7 years now that BrickCommander (formerly aka LEGO MechCommander) is up and running, and as you probably know I always strive to mastermind something special for my website's anniversaries.

  Re: Spiral Stairs
 
(...) Hi, Your solution is close to mine, except that for me the step height is 2 plates. I always build my stairs (even the straight ones) with a 2 plates step height except if it's a stair in a square in front of a church for example (in that case (...)
