  Re: Mech grammar
 
Hey Rosco! I would say the the terms "Mech" and Mecha" are the same except for the sytle of the Robot in question. Mark Nuemann put it best by saying : Mechs are lumbering giant war machines with grease and oil stains. Mecha are beautiful sculpted (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Question, opinion, help - Claw Hands
 
Nice! I used the same worm gear set up in my hand design I settled on. Co-inky-dink. Thanks for the input! Eric (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Mech grammar
 
Mark Neumann has a very good explanation on his page: (URL) = anything here: (URL) = (URL) a mech is more like Battletech, with a large, bulky profile while mecha are usually more sleek in comparison. I'm guessing that the plural form of "mech" (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Han Solo's blaster
 
Yeah, that blaster is amazing. =^) Stuart has been posting at LUGNET for I think a year and a half or so. Mostly in the mecha section though. He's tied up with non-lego stuff currently so he doesn't have the time to post, but lucky for us, he's (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Question, opinion, help - Claw Hands
 
Sorry for the slow reply, but here's a 2 claw hand I built a while back. It's worm gear driven so it's fairly strong. There's an LDRAW DAT file that show how it went together HTH, JSM (URL) Sophie <mylegomaster@cs.com> wrote in message (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Mech grammar
 
(...) My understanding they mean the same thing, the usage depends on the story context. In Patlabor, the mechs are actually called 'labors' (Patlabor is short for 'Patrol Labor'). Since there are so many mech universes, I think just about anything (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Mech grammar
 
OK, you builders of mecha. I'm the first to admit I know nothing about them, but I was just wanting to appease my enquiring mind. After reading quite a few posts here, I've seen "mech" and "mecha" used almost interchangeably. I always thought "mech" (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Slow day, huh?
 
(...) Vent away, Jacob! Want proof that it happens to other people? Witness this BricksWest 2002 picture (URL)- I had just turned my back after adjusting my mecha so it would be ready to show off during day two of the mecha sessions. I heard a 'pop' (...)

  Re: Announcing 'Nyaneo' - The first ever Land Of Bricks MOCM!!
 
Great Job to both of you! Eric, I love the model and keep pouring over the pictures on Brickshelf. Mark, I've loved the site since the day you put it up and now you're featuring models on it! Very Cool! -Dave (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: MoTW
 
(...) Eric, you can thank your adoring public for the honor. I recieved more requests for the Skittles Squad to be MotW than any other mecha creation. Two of the emails said they wanted to nominate you because of the 'build-a-bot' gallery you set (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
