(...) OK--I'd wondered if you were using the soft-plastic-rod stiffening technique in this somehow. Is there no way to use the 4x4 round brick, which also has a center axle groove? It might hold the guns better, though I don't know what effect it (...) (19 years ago, 24-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Mladen, you never fail to bring the heat. Everyone has already hit on the great details, all I'm going to add is that it is highly arousing. No Brickfest will ever be complete until you bring one of these things to devastate the train/town layout. (...) (19 years ago, 24-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
