A heads-up for anyone who has bookmarked my web site (Dilbert sculptures, mathematical Lego sculptures and a few Technic odds and ends): I've just moved from the US to the UK and consequently changed ISP. My email address is also changing, though (...) (23 years ago, 19-Sep-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.sculpture) !

So, here are some images of this little thing I made, which I am so proud of, while not as terribly (...) (23 years ago, 17-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.sculpture)
