(...) I’m curious about the “studs-out” orientation as well. Either up-down or left-right (front-back). Each has their own particular spatial geometry, when talking about Lego brick. It would be help if you did something like the following (...) (20 years ago, 15-Feb-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)

(...) What do you mean by 'on top'? Are these butt-to-butt bricks supposed to form a flat surface, or upright walls with the studs facing out left and right, or a vertical wall with studs up and down? Can you handle sticking-out bits or studs on one (...) (20 years ago, 15-Feb-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)

(...) WHOOSH... this lower half just flew over my head. I'm not very clear on exactly what you want here. But I followed your question. Have you tried log (both 1 x 2 and 1 x 4) bricks with 2L technic rods shoved up and attached to each other (...) (20 years ago, 14-Feb-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)

I'm soliciting solutions to a not-unfamiliar SNOT-construction quandry: What's the best way to attach brown bricks butt-end to butt-end (the ends opposite the studs) securely, using only brown pieces that are readily available (i.e. available in (...)

(...) Thanks :-) I particularly like the fact that the effect is easier to achieve with Lego in 8mm scale than in HO or OO in 3.5mm or 4mm scale. Using SNOT with grille tiles gives a finer grille than just alternating plates, and there's some relief (...) (20 years ago, 11-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.schleim)

Anyway, what's odd about that picture is there's something missing from the thumbnail. If (...) (20 years ago, 10-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.schleim)

When I visit a Brickshelf gallery, I usually click on the "Up" menu, just to take a sneak pick on other projects, pictures, etc. I did it on your gallery, and I saw my train station floor in (...)
