(...) built (...) Steve, You may be referring to some of my models... which are all rendered images... I have built physically enough of each of the models (some are 100% physically built) that I post on Pallas Spaceworks to make sure that they work (...)

  Re: A Question for all you CAD Mech builders...
 
How soon? What does it look like? How big is it? Man, I have this awesome arm and gun built but don't have a clue how to use them! Maybe your new model will give me some inspiration! (...) real, (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) As soon as I can get some spare time to set up the renders and compile them. It was designed in response to someone's (maybe yours??) request for more medium-sized mecha at Pallas Spaceworks... It is about the same height as the Mustang (UMA (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: A Question for all you CAD Mech builders...
 
Yeah, I asked you to make more smaller mecha. While were're on the subject of mecha: a) I have just completed 80% of my new Rapid Response Mecha that is about twice the size of my current mecha, it's going to have a white and red paint scheme, b) (...)

  Re: A Question for all you CAD Mech builders...
 
(...) Sounds cool... Yes you are right about the difficulty of building smaller mecha... with larger mecha, you know in the back of your mind that you can always get a *little* bit larger... and technic joints get easier to build the bigger they (...)

  Re: A Question for all you CAD Mech builders...
 
Can you send me the .dat file of the mecha, it's okay if you can't or don't want to? I just wanna have a sneak peek! BTW The pilot of my new mecha can actually pop his head up underneath the mecha's head, ala _Patlabor_! (...) about (...) a (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: A Question for all you CAD Mech builders...
 
Actually I have built the "Ryu" mech from the LCad instructions on Karim's site, it is about 95% complete and will stand on it's own (with some careful balancing) as long as the booster "backpack" is not attached.I have made some changes to the (...)

  Re: A Question for all you CAD Mech builders...
 
(...) Ahem... Yes, well, I can see that that might be a problem... I did actually build about 60% of that "booster pack", and it stands up just fine... but It kinda grew a little bit due to aesthetic considerations during the LCADing process... (...)

  Re: A Question for all you CAD Mech builders...
 
Perhaps one day I will take pictures of it and post them somewhere or create an updated DAT file,which may be better since there is a lot of black pieces (and we all know how well black shows up in pictures). Later -Skyler (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) can (...) Yes, indeed. Colin Gutierrez' Nodatchi mecha has such a good design for small mecha w/pilot... I use variations on that. Anyone have a different good design for small mecha cockpits? Technic joints get easier as they grow larger, but (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) the (...) I haven't settled on one yet... I'm still trying to get it right. But I am happier with the Panther cockpit than with the previous mecha I've designed... It's still pretty boxy from the outside, but what I like about it is that the (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
