While breaking down some sets from a recent clearance run, I came across an interesting new part... 42607.

(...) Hi Ray, That's not a bad idea! I ended up with about 20 of those after the clearance sales. I was thinking that there should be a good way to use them. I may have to try your method and see what I can do. Thanks for passing it on... Tom (21 years ago, 21-Jan-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)

Great platform idea Ray! I am going to try it... I have been meaning to post another part idea, I came up with last week... After getting all four of the new mini-SW set I found this little part in 4486 - Mini Snowspeeder and AT-ST. Part x226 (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)

(...) 4615 Red Recon Flyer. Not in the guide database, until someone updates it. I note that at least one other JS set, A.I.R. Patrol is also not in guide. This stuff may be frowned upon by most of us, but it should at least be in the lugnet Guide. (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)

(...) Based on the brickset pictures, this part may also be available in (White) 4620 A.I.R.Operations HQ (although this appears to be a more costly source) and (Yellow) in 4617 Dual Turbo Prop. Ray (21 years ago, 21-Jan-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)
