   Hey all,

Does anyone have any ideas as to how one would build a chain link fence?

I feel certain that I’ve seen someone use the 8x8 plates with grills: I thought it might be in Keith Goldman’s Iron Reich models, but don’t see anything.

I actually don’t think my snot solution works there. I find it hard to tell from ldraw, but it seems like the studs on the 1x1 bricks with studs on all sides (and, btw, the 1x1 bricks with studs on two sides would be better; I just have an older version of mlcad) don’t exactly match up. If I had my bricks I could play around with the idea a little more, but perhaps that sort of idea would work?

Hey all, Does anyone have any ideas as to how one would build a chain link fence? the obvious solution to me is just a bunch of 1x1 bricks, stacked, with 1x8 plates running between them, but this looks a bit blocky. Does anyone know of any good (...) (20 years ago, 20-May-05, to lugnet.build)
