  Re: New Mech Hand
 
(...) one of the first things I messed around with using the LoM hinges was a very similar hand! That and some birdlike 'talons' - both worked out OK but I didn't have any mecha to put them on so I never did much with them. J (24 years ago, 26-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New Mech Hand
 
(...) I originally made a hand like this for Unit03 with parts from a couple of AT ST sets, and another using just SW click hinges for the fingers. The beefier SW hinge hand seemed more in character with a gundam so I went with that. The thin (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: New Model - "Bear" Hard Suit
 
(...) Yes the color scheme is very well done. I really like all the power suits that have been coming out lately. Bryce (24 years ago, 26-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  New Mech Hand
 
This is the hand to the new mecha I'm building. It's a cop out way to use the new LOM click hinge pieces, but somebody had to do it. (URL) (24 years ago, 26-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  RE: New Model - "Bear" Hard Suit
 
(...) Ontario there's a guy who has spent most of his life making a bear-proof suit. CBC did a documentary on him some time ago. The best scene is the guy standing in the suit being hit by a large poleaxe and not being hurt at all. The idea is that (...)

  Re: New Model - "Bear" Hard Suit
 
Thanks Mark! The colour scheme was very much accidental, like the MSP. BTW I might make a Transport for a bunch of these suits, since they seem to be quite "economical", in terms of parts needed to build each one. (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  RE: New wolf mecha @ Moonbase Io
 
(...) Very cool! It's nice to see completely original mecha every once in a while. What's the inside of the cockpt look like? It looks like you have enough room to do a nice detailed interior. --Bram Bram Lambrecht bram@cwru.edu (URL) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  My first Mech. (unfinished)
 
This is the first mech that I have built. I had tried earlier but my earlier attempts never got past feet and stick like legs that would colapse when I touched them. I am very happy with the legs of this mech. But I am waiting for more LEGO to (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: How to build Mechs
 
Not only bulky, but extremely loose fitting. You said you aren't into technic but do you have any aqua zone or arctic stuff? You can use the jointed peices with a techinic peg on one end and either two or three fingers on the other. That joint (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

I think that it might work because there are ball joints at both ends of the throwbot piece, but that can still be done (and fairly easily, really) with the new ball-with-axle-hole piece, although it begins to require a shocking amount of (...)
