  Re: Town Hall - Micro Scale for Lego Factory Contest
 
(...) Thanks Marc! (cool name, btw). The grey windowsill 1x2 center-stud plates (my favorite piece) are sitting on top of another red 1x2 center stud plate to get the 1/2 stud offset. One other useful trick is to put them on top of technic bricks. (...) (20 years ago, 30-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.town, FTX)

  Re: Town Hall - Micro Scale for Lego Factory Contest
 
(...) Very nice! And I hope that's dark red in the building - I'd love to be able to get that much dark red in one set. Looks like you're in the lead at the moment! A question: what are the 1x2 center-stud plates (the windowsills) sitting on? Marc (...) (20 years ago, 30-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.town, FTX)

  Re: Baltimore Battle Monument
 
Snip. Very nice work, Mark. I have in general been impressed with the number and quality of AFOL entries in this, they're all very incredible! I'd consider giving it a try myself but I cannot get LDD to run on any of the computers in my house. (20 years ago, 28-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

Bruce: (...) The cement truck is actually my favorite :) I was thinking of the newer-style trucks, (or is it just a different design?), where the mixer is reversed and hangs over the cab. I see a lot more of them nowadays - either it's the "latest (...) (20 years ago, 24-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: 2 Micro MOCs : Heavy Haulers & Shell gas station
 
Hey Sean, Nice MOCs. I'm not as big a fan of the cement truck (it looks a bit like a mobile missile launcer to me) (perhaps the cement part should be angled the opposite direction?), but I really like the other two trucks in that setup. I actually (...) (20 years ago, 24-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: 2 Micro MOCs : Heavy Haulers & Shell gas station
 
(...) Alternately, you can use the 3 and 9 keys on the numpad, which is really useful considering all the viewpoint controls are there as well. All this is detailed in the manual (Program FilesLEGO Digital Designerdocumentatio...eng.html). I hope (...) (20 years ago, 24-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

(...) Switch to a top-down view and place the cars where you want them. Then switch back to a side view and press Page Down to set them down on the road. Nice trucks! Marc Nelson Jr. (20 years ago, 23-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
