  Re: Proportions for a 2001 Monolith in LEGO?
 
(...) Ed Toton made a lunar Monolith scene, but the dimensions weren't listed (it's way too small to be 2x8x15, though): (URL) Thomas did make a LEGO-based movie version of 2001, and according to the responses, it did include a Monolith that (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jan-04, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Proportions for a 2001 Monolith in LEGO?
 
(...) DOH! You are right... I was going on the ratio of the brick being 6x6x7, but it's actually 5x5x6. Serves me right for posting something like that without checking first. So...at the *PROPER* LEGO dimensions, the Monolith would then be... (drum (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.build)

  Proportions for a 2001 Monolith in LEGO?
 
Bringing this back to a LEGO oriented discussion... My sincerest apologies if it's still a bit nerd-oriented. In lugnet.off-topic.fun, Larry Pieniazek wrote: ... a brief discussion on clone brand proportions and how they could be used to recreate (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.build)
 
  Big Ugly Yellow Building
 
Is it a mosque? Is it an office building? Who knows! What I know for sure is that it's BIG and YELLOW. This building appeared in IndyLUG's GATS train layout in October 2003 and January 2004.

  Re: 3 ideas I had
 
(...) Ah, my mistake. I can't recall any specific uses of that design that I've seen, but I'd still be surprised if it hasn't been used before by someone (flip it upside-down and it sounds like a neat idea for part of a nano-scale building). I (...) (23 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 3 ideas I had
 
(...) They do, but they spin freely in the sockets. I'd lean more towards using black friction pins (maybe with black axes to make them less obvious?) which will both grip on the inside of the hub and the axle handle. Er, they grip the axe a bit (...)

  Re: 3 ideas I had
 
(...) What I actually meant was to stick 1 x 1 round bricks on each of the 4 prongs, not just one in the middle. (23 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 3 ideas I had
 
(...) Here's another way to get 120 degree angles with hinge bricks: (URL) got the idea from Jon Palmer: (URL) course, four axes spinning around would be pretty easy--I'd use the 4x4 round brick in brown as a hub: (URL) technic half-pins fit into (...)

  Re: 3 ideas I had
 
(...) Three might be tricky to pull off. There are only three pieces that I can think of that allow you to attach things at exactly 120 degree intervals, and one of them is a fairly new TECHNIC tri-beam that only comes in two sets. This is probably (...) (23 years ago, 20-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle)

  3 ideas I had
 
Firstly is a Siege Engine thingo that I saw on a bugs bunny (I think) cartoon. Basicly, its a giant thing with 3 axes on it in a circle thing, as it moves along the axes spin around. Secondly is a lamp I came up with. Grab one of the 4-pronged parts (...) (23 years ago, 20-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle)
