| Mike: Thanks. Actually, I plan to make the building in 3 seperate chunks that can be stacked together. This will also help me move it around. My Empire State Building is all one big chunk, and at almost 6 feet, it's pretty darn hard to move it when (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.build)
