    Gonna build a mountain in my living room. —Fred Jones
   I am trying to build a greenhouse and I want to have a mountain in the middle. I haven't figured out any good ways to make one though, so I was wondering if anyone would build one for me, please? I would request that it is about 50 studs wide (at (...) (25 years ago, 25-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
   
        Re: Gonna build a mountain in my living room. —Chris Maddison
     (...) I can't do it for you; I don't have the resources nor the time. But, I can give a suggestion. BURPS. Lots and lots of BURPS. They're ugly, yes, but they'll make the mountain look good and keep it light. Plus, they stack in various patterns (...) (25 years ago, 25-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

     Pardon me for being stupid; I didn't look at the category before I replied. With CAD, you don't have to worry about weight. But, I still can't do it. Sorry. -Chris (25 years ago, 25-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

     (...) Hey, it's the thought that counts. Actually, I was planning on using the BURPS, but I can't seem to put them together in any good organization. When trying to make something that big, I get a little flustered. Besides, I have been very busy (...) (25 years ago, 26-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
    
         Re: Gonna build a mountain in my living room. —Bram Lambrecht
     (...) Funny, I'm in the process of building the exact same thing! So far, I've collected a bunch of images off the web and started trying to make wheels that fold under. I'd really like the model to be motorized and have steering, too, which makes (...) (25 years ago, 26-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
    
         Re: Gonna build a mountain in my living room. —Fred Jones
      (...) I was planning on making mine for Minifigs, but I gave up because I could'nt build it right. It started looking like a truck and things only got worse from there. The hardest part that I could not figure out was how to fold the wheels under (...) (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
    
         Re: Gonna build a mountain in my living room. —Fred Jones
     (...) I was planning on making mine about 8 studs wide. I think that I can do it, even though I wasn't so sure earlier, but you reinspired me. I have been able to create doors that fold up, and don't look to bad, and wheels that fold down. (...) (25 years ago, 28-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

        Re: Gonna build a mountain in my living room. —Fred Jones
   Hey, thanks for the file, but it isn't quite what I was looking for. It does impress me though. How did you build it, did you just use a program? If yes, what one? What I'm seeing is just a bunch of BURPS with the spaces filled in, basically. But (...) (25 years ago, 26-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

If you have more constraints on the mountain - like at ground level at the edges or a 32*32 flat top - please tell me, and I will see what I can do about (...)
