  Re: My latest cathedral.
 
(...) Thanks :-) (...) I call it the "curl" problem, and yes, I have it in spades. The GATS Church actually takes advantage of it in the curved walls. All the other glass walls that are more than a few panels in size are supported somehow. In the (...) (23 years ago, 31-Jul-01, to lugnet.build.arch)

Brad-- Another masterpiece, for sure. You've got a really unique style. Have you turned your interest in architecture to non-Lego applications? One small note of criticism I would have is the front entrance--that staircase seems very small compared (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jul-01, to lugnet.build.arch)

  My Latest Cathedral
 
Its been a while since I've done something in CAD, but I found an old flying buttress concept I did a while back and decided to make a cathedral out of it. The result is a bit smaller than previous efforts, but decidedly more unusual. Here is the (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jul-01, to lugnet.build.arch)
