Apologies for not being clearer, and for not reading /schleim/ more often. A
'+lugnet/building -mecha' summary option would be nice. I'll add that to my
wish list under a '+recent -bionicle' browse option on brickshelf.
Anyway, I'll try to take some pictures. But, the general idea is to have the
top half of your roof built in the normal way, studs-upward. But, the lower
half of the slope is made of chunks stuck on sideways, studs-outward. One chunk
either side and one at the end.
The clever thing is it lets you do strange things when you place roof corners in
a SNOT orientation. That really can't be described.
The tricky bit is lining up the edges of the SNOT sections and the normal top
part of the roof.
I tried taking pictures of this windmill with my old camera, but they didn't
come out very well. I'll try with my more recent one.
It's also made from an interesting half-stud conical structure that took ages to
perfect.
