Hi, I want to make a merry-go-round that will use the 14-stud UFO domes as a canopy. A calculation assuming that the edge of the wing tapers by an integral number of studs says that the angle is just a little over 18 degrees, which would mean that (...) (24 years ago, 31-Aug-00, to lugnet.build)

(...) Thanks! I realize the minifig looks like a li'l kid in the seat. I think a Technic fig may have been better, but I wanted to put a minifig on it. Here's a quick pic. I just did a quick search to find it, so please forgive the page it's on. (...) (24 years ago, 31-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

(...) Mark, this is a VERY FINE design -- although I think the mini may be too small for the bike. Then again, it's been forever since I have seen something like Akira to have a sense of the scale. Would a technic figure have been too large? And (...) (24 years ago, 31-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

Nope. It's just designed to resemble the motorcycle from Akira. It would be much bulkier if it actually folded up. But that's a good idea. ^_^ ~Mark (24 years ago, 31-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

Wow, I really like that! It looks really inviting to go for a ride with it :-) It looks as if it's "foldable" into some kind of space ship, is it? --Tobias (...) (24 years ago, 31-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

That sounds pretty cool, Mladen. Once you're finished, send me a link to wherever you post the instructions and I'll put it on the page with the Shiva. ~Mark (24 years ago, 31-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

In the past, if I borrow someone's design, I usually just type a small "thanks to" bit and then link to their webpage. See the Balrogs: Lightfoot page, and the Mecha: ED-209B on my website to see how I did it. ~Mark (24 years ago, 31-Aug-00, to lugnet.build)

Fortunately she's sympathetic to my addiction. ;^) I (...) (24 years ago, 31-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
