  Re: Lunar Mining Colony
 
Brian, (...) (URL) I be one of many that say, wow. What an excellent example of how colonization might actually happen. You got the sense of real world space exploration. Great job! I can't wait for more! Scott S. -- Systems Administrator-Affiliated (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Lunar Mining Colony
 
(...) I found it! It's right here... (...) The regolith is seriously good. I wanna see that in a castle set, now. :-, You've really captured a sense of lonliness, and the drudgery of building a new moonbase from scratch. I love it!

  Re: Tired of click hinges - use technic pins with friction
 
(...) Use bits of LEGO paper (ie, the backing paper from stickers) instead of plastic wrap. This will give you a slightly stronger claim to 'LEGO purity'. Steve (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Lunar Mining Colony
 
(...) Brian, Copernicus City is amazing and inspiring. I hope my future space colonies have a fraction of your detail. Let us know when the next pics are up. George (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
 
  RE: Website announcement and update
 
Hey, those "Striders" are really cool-looking. They remind me of the "Emancipator" Herculans from Dynamix's Starsiege game. Same torso, only the Emancipator's pods were above and below the cockpit instead of the sides. (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.mecha)

Even better! Thanks again dude =) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Lunar Mining Colony
 
(...) Excellent. I love models on a grand scale. (currently constructing a 6x48stud baseplate station myself) The track is crying out to disappear into a tunnel where it meets the rockface. What explosives do you plan to use to move the legorock? (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
 
  Train Cab for 4559 & Guestbook Check
 
Hello everyone. I was experimenting with my 4559 Cargo Railroad and I stummbled across a cool thing. If you happen to have an extra black train cab and a lower yellow train half (?) you can build another copy of the train cab perfectly w/o buying (...)

  Re: Peasant House... barnyard critters
 
(...) Or would that be "infamous"?... :-P~~~ Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk! (...) Go for it! (Please slip in a link back to my original document, though, if you wouldn't mind, just in case someone else wants to make some of the other critters.)

  Re: Lunar Mining Colony
 
I scrounged grey parts from every set I have then threw in a handful of grey brick packs (5145) and some large grey baseplates acquired at discounts. For dark grey BURPS you've gotta love 6494 Mystic Mountian Time Lab, 6087 Knight Lords Castle, and (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Lunar Mining Colony
 
(...) More rolling stock is in the plans for when the mining operation gets up to speed and the associated industrial complex is established. The first priority was to survive and establish the initial base. Brian P.S. The dark grey mountain houses (...)

Brian, Nice work! Can’t wait to see more pictures... That is allot of gray parts on your moonscape, I like, I like :) Build on... Robin W GFLTC/GFLUG (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Lunar Mining Colony
 
(...) I was wondering why this was posted to .trains... now I know. Very cool. Some nice touches there. I like the focus on practical (bootstrapping is a viable technique for building an extraterran industrial infrastructure) as well as the (...)

  Lunar Mining Colony
 
I've updated my web site with pictures of my lunar mining colony - Copernicus City. The Prologue and Chapter I show the inception and construction of the initial base on my 4'x8' lunar landscape. Future chapters will follow its development into a (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)  
 
  Re: The Village PPL
 
For the amps and speakers, I would definately use black wafer bricks on the front. That's all I can think of for now. In one of my old Lego Magazines from ~1990-1991there is a picture of a stage with musicians and such. (I think, I know I saw it (...) (24 years ago, 23-Jul-00, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Mecha Legs
 
(...) Well said. But I'd like to voice a different opinion on the whole issue. This whole thread originated when Mladen offered a sneak peak at his current mecha project, and Rob asked Mladen if he could use "a scaled down version of those legs" in (...)

  Re: Sith Infiltrator 7151 Alternative Model
 
(...) As long as your CD-ROM drive can handle PhotoCDs (and most made after 1991 can), it doesn't matter whether you have a PC or a Mac. PhotoCD is its own standard, sort of like web graphics. best LFB (24 years ago, 23-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Peasant House...Marc
 
(...) Wilson, Your advice has proven most usefull. I will borrow from Franklin (if he will allow me) and shall have meadows full of critters! I need to invest in some pink peices for the piggies! Thanks, GREG~ (24 years ago, 23-Jul-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Sith Infiltrator 7151 Alternative Model
 
Great! Thanks for the tip...I just hope they can store the picture in a MAC compatible format. I'm sure there are ways, I'll let everyone know how it worked out. I just gotta get my Imperial Shuttle on the site. Peace, ou (24 years ago, 23-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.starwars)
