 | | Observatory - revised teaser pic
|
| Hi all, Since this teasing with pics is popular, I thought I'd put one up too! Look at (URL) wait for more!!! Jaco (22 years ago, 17-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.space)

| (...) I apologize: due to Lycos-Multimania the previous direct link does not work. So give it another try, the download only works from the site main page: (URL) left click on "download LDraw files". Damien (22 years ago, 16-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

| (...) That's terrific! What a great idea. In your revised version, do you plan on adding doors to the dome, and giving the telescope a greater range in declination? Jeff J (22 years ago, 13-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.space)

| Unfortunenatly the only motors I own are these (I have 2) and an older 4.5V one. Another LEGO friend is busy making me some gearing to give the motor more power. Since I am rebuilding an revising the whole model, expect it! Jaco "Ross Crawford" (...) (22 years ago, 10-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.space)

| (...) That motor you're using is the old-style technic motor thats not geared down, so it has much less torque - you may have more luck with a new-style one (URL) however that may rotate it too fast. Another possibility is the micro-motor (URL) (...) (22 years ago, 9-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.space)

| Inspiration was more of doing something with a dome using the sphere generator. It was part of Steendam at LEGOWORLD 2002! I am rebuilding it now, and adding more detail. Jaco "M.
