Hello !

The second thing I presented at BricMania (Grenoble, France, July 2004) after
the moo-torized cows ( <http://news.lugnet.com/announce/moc/?n=2177> ) is a
presentation about a building technique : TOPLESs.

TOPLESs is the acronyme of Tile Or Plate Located between Enough Studs.

Very, very nice Erik!

I thought to start with when I saw your post... "oh, everyone knows how to
do that"... but when I looked at the pics and saw what you had done with it
I was impressed! Very creative! The ladders are great and the footbridge is
impressive. How strong is it?

Everyone knows about this technique ? Not sure, and I think a very few people
explore it widely, and only one guy has done a presentation about it :).

As you've seen, Erik has combined all these "non classical" techniques (SNOT,
AZMEP and TOPLESs) in a very creative way. Pages #22 and #23  are the most
instructive.

Another point I want to underline is the great idea that represents ILTCO
library http://www.iltco.org/library/ with such presentation as "Advanced Train
Building" by Steve Barile or "SNOT Constructions Techniques" by James Mathis.
Thanks to the ILTCO team. Could we imagine such a library for space
(SPAAAAAAACE) or castle theme ??
