  Re: Three buildings (A.K.o.S. )
 
The system aside, these are really nice MOCs.. very detailed for a facade... I like your idea of removable interiors expressed elsewhere in the thread, that will help the standard a lot! Thanks and God Bless, Nathan (21 years ago, 20-Jun-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Re: Three buildings (A.K.o.S. )
 
(...) Certainly, "quick and dirty" BFTB-s (buldings-for-the-background) can be built using the A.K.o.S. method. This was one of the goals. On the other hand, interior detailing is not impossible at all. I will add that to one of the buildings. I (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  It's coming (new hint daily)
 
Hi- SCLTC is up to something big. We will post a hint daily. You are invited to guess what we are doing. If, by chance, you know what we're doing, then it would not be a guess for you to respond here.

  Re: All Kinds of Structures (A.K.o.S.)
 
(...) I'll try my best! :-) BTW, You must show me what you built ;-) (...) Correct. Originally, I was going to leave a 2 stud setback on all four sides, but I decided that a firewall did not need to be 2 studs thick. One goal of this method is to (...)

  Re: Three buildings (A.K.o.S. )
 
(...) Cool. More buildings shows the flexibility of the system. I guess my biggest concern with it is that the interior arrangements are visible through the windows. I've been urging my local club members to work on more interior detailing so that (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Re: All Kinds of Structures (A.K.o.S.)
 
Hi, I tried to build one of these and had some difficulties. Maybe you can clarify them for me. It seems that the idea is not to leave 2 studs on every side, but only on the sides that are going to have facades. If I understand the AKOS system, the (...)

I've build two more A.K.o.S. buildings this weekend just to see if this concept would actually work in reality. I think they don't look that bad. (URL) Akos Kostyan LEGO Ambassador akos@malug.hu (21 years ago, 19-Jun-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Re: All Kinds of Structures (A.K.o.S.)
 
Very interesting! I can see how this would help with emergency cover for show layouts... Personally I would still be concentrating on 'whole' MOCs but if you needed a quick background this would be great. Thanks and God Bless, Nathan (21 years ago, 18-Jun-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  WIP and New Site
 
Well I've had enough of the problems with my webhost that I've finally decided to switch. You've probably noticed that the old site was down most of the time due to bandwidth and it has gotten worst during the last few months. Good thing that the (...)

  Re: All Kinds of Structures (A.K.o.S.)
 
<SNIP> Hi Akos, I really like this concept (although I have my suspicions that you just wanted to make an acronym out of your name ;-) ). I may borrow you idea for the structure for use in my home layout. Great idea! Tim (21 years ago, 16-Jun-05, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: All Kinds of Structures (A.K.o.S.)
 
I really like this, I can see it being used a lot to create backings/facards (sp) for train shows etc. It is perfect for filling in "missing details" after a layout is finished, and as it is easy modify as not to repeditive. I can see a lot of train (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jun-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Re: All Kinds of Structures (A.K.o.S.)
 
(...) The baseplate limitations are there: 16×16, 16×32 etc. The sidewalk/roadway is not specified, because the blocks should fit between 32×32 baseplates. The idea is that the modules do not overlap with the baseplates of the layout, you can build (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jun-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)

A modular system (like moonbase or CCC) defines how external connections are made and (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jun-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  All Kinds of Structures (A.K.o.S.)
 
This is my first post here. I would like to announce a standard I've been working on. All Kinds of Structures (A.K.o.S.) The purpose of this standard is to define a modular block-based building method for building towns. Modules can be squares or (...)

  MAN Midibus in city scale with opening doors
 
Hi to all!!! I’m very happy to show you my last town creation. I've built a little town bus fit for the Lego City scale, because it is 6 studs wide and about 6 bricks high. This is the newest model which will be part of the public transport system (...) (21 years ago, 11-Jun-05, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !
