| Amazingly detailed 6 wide fire truck by William Toenjes: (URL) is one of the best minifig scale town vehicles I have ever seen. --Bram (24 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town) !!

| (...) I agree; Bill's creations are even more spectacular in person. Those pics were taken by John Gerlach at our (GMLTC) meeting last week using his new digital camera. Although not a new MOC (I think Bill built it last fall), this might be its (...) (24 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)

| (...) Hey! I sure hope you have your bestest asbestos suit on :-) As an avid 4-wide microfig modeller (those oversized minifigs are just too big), I can assure you that building detail into a 4-wide model is often a good way to explore new uses for (...)

| (...) I stumbled upon this truck yesterday when the only pics on there were 3 of the Quint itself. Now I see there are pics of a school bus, U-Haul, and a medic unit also. Its a nice apparatus, with lots of detail, but its quite wide, a full 8 studs (...) (24 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)

I was taking a shot at TLC for making *minifig* vehicles 4 wide. In fact, I have tried modeling 4 wide (...) (24 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)

I consider 6-wide to be a better minifig scale, especially for trucks. --Bram Bram Lambrecht / o o \ BramL@juno.com ---...---oooo-----(_...o---...--- WWW: (...)

| (...) I figure that any scale is fine as long as you stick to it if you want to display your models together. For example, one of my semi's (the tanker) would work well with <set:2448>, but still dwarfs a four wide. My eight-wide (the trailer, not (...)

| (...) Thanks all for the kind words! When John Gerlach brought his amazing new 3.3 megapixel digital camera (with 340 MB Microdrive!) to our weekly G.M.L.T.C. meeting he kindly agreed to take pictures of some of my MOC's. He even burned me a CD with (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)

| (...) I do have to agree that the Quint is not bad. I do like the new additions to the page, using the ResQ sets. I am especially impressed with the snow mobile and Snozzel. I too, have been building the 6 wide apparatus for sometime, but until (...) (24 years ago, 2-May-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn, lugnet.loc.us.va)
