  Re: Iron Mecha 2nd Update
 
Third update: I switched themes from a construction type mecha to a military one simply because I'm running out of time and think a crane is harder to build than a big gun. Also I couldn't figure out a good use for the "missle pods". So here's the (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) -snip- (...) Here's a corrected link: (URL) I really like the small changes you made, Zac. The AA guns are awesome, and look like they can depress to engage ground targets, which is what AA guns do most of the time when they're not firing (...)

  Re: Type M-24B Support Walking Tank
 
Hey Zac, this is a fantastic little mech. The greebling keeps it plenty busy and looks like a tank. The roundness of the legs sold me. The body looks a bit boxy for the size of it, but again, as a tank isn't too much of a hit. I like your variations (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Type M-24B Support Walking Tank
 
Hi builders and buildettes, After being stuck at home for days with a partially collapsed lung (spontaneous pneumothorax for those in the know) for with the doctor says just 'rest' I had a good build session and finally got a mech done. It's been a (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Never built a robot before - but I think I did a pretty good job with this one. (URL) a lot of fun building this, so no matter what the contest results are, I have already won, so to speak. (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)  
 
  Re: Iron Mecha Official Entry
 
(...) That Red with the Dark Grey will never go out of style! Looks good. I like the way you did the feet. They are classic, yet nicely emulate the drawing. (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: New MOC: L-21 Mobile Multi-Role Platform (MMP)
 
(...) That's one of the techniques I picked up from Chris Snead. Unfortunately, that combo is still not strong enough to hold the guns up. Believe me, I tried it. :-) (URL) Mladen Pejic> (...) (19 years ago, 24-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: New MOC: L-21 Mobile Multi-Role Platform (MMP)
 
snip (...) snip why not use the 3l axle with stud (with the stud part) sandwiched between two 1x2 technic bricks. very stiff and gives you a 2l worth of axle to attach to. Mark (19 years ago, 24-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

  Re: New MOC: L-21 Mobile Multi-Role Platform (MMP)
 
(...) Actually, sometimes the whole turret, including the 2x2 round brick, slips off the axle peg. So, I don't know if the 4x4 round brick would work any better. But it's a good suggestion nonetheless, and I regret not trying it out. The real (...) (19 years ago, 24-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

  Re: New MOC: L-21 Mobile Multi-Role Platform (MMP)
 
(...) 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)
