This looks great sir...almost like a display at a science pavillion. That telescope is just spot on. Well done! Cheers, -Gil (...) (22 years ago, 12-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.space)

(...) Great stuff Lars! Works like a charm. Thank a mill. (22 years ago, 10-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Observatory
 
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)

  Re: Observatory
 
(...) 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)

  Re: Observatory
 
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.

  Re: Observatory
 
Wow! That is cool. It looks perfectly like an observatory, and the moving dome is just great. So much realism in that! Very cool. And the CAD files are nice, too. -JHK (...) (22 years ago, 9-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.space)
