So, I need big treads. About 400-500 studs long total, and about 8-studs wide. I've jury-rigged some prototype treads, and I'm fairly happy with them, but I'm curious to see some other examples. Anyone know of any? Here's what I've got so far: (6 (...) (21 years ago, 12-Feb-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)

Hey Jojo, Very nice. I always thought of these screens as Japanese for some reason. This MOC makes me think of that Monty Python sketch in the marriage counselor's office. Bruce (21 years ago, 12-Feb-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, FTX)
