All this animation talk is making me very jealous :) Anyone offer to do my Ice Planet fighter with the turning turret that tilts up and down?

Master Modeler James as usual does not announce new stuff very well. ;-) Follow his link and check out his SLAG CAR! Very cool. Nice use of inversion, the entire car body is inverted but the slag bucket is not. (URL) drop center flat is also (...) (26 years ago, 27-Jan-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

Wow! Very impressive! I love the relief on the face of the mall building. And the flags are a very nice touch. You must have quite a bit of space to work with (and plently of bricks). A superb effort indeed. -- Michael Hopkins Visit my lego page at: (...) (26 years ago, 27-Jan-99, to lugnet.build)

During Christmas Break my mom dug up some photographs of when I was 9 or 10 years old. To my surprise one photograph showed the first train locomotive I built. My only LEGO train set at that time (approx. 1979 or 1980) was the first blue track cargo (...) (26 years ago, 27-Jan-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

(...) Yes, and they'd make for great door edges, allowing for easily opening flush-mounted doors without large gaps. Right now, I'm shaving some 1x2 and 1x3 bricks for this purpose, by beveling a corner so that it's roughly like 1/4 of a 1x1 round (...) (26 years ago, 27-Jan-99, to lugnet.build)

(...) Thanks! Me too. If anyone cares to do an animation, I'd love to see it, as it would take me several months. I'm not povray camera savvy either. -Tom McD. (26 years ago, 26-Jan-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)

(...) Right. Symmetrical yes, but all the base pieces are rotated 45 degrees around their respective y-axes. With respect to the model, the picture shows the turret rotated 45 degrees. It was much faster to design the tank that way to get the same (...) (26 years ago, 26-Jan-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)

(...) I just thought of these. They are great to make rounded corners, but the structural soundness of the model is less than with overlapping 1x2's. They should make a 1x2 with a rounded-off end, sort of like a 1x1 with half of a 'macaroni' (...) (26 years ago, 26-Jan-99, to lugnet.build)
