| Snippage (...) I agree. Why not make Lugnet the single point of contact for the LEGO fan base. We all come here any way. LEGOfan.net sounds redundant or am I missing something?

| Hmm, another thought for the latice... Are there any tubes the diameter of a stud? If so, you could use a latice fence with tubes stucking through. I think that might get the idea across pretty well. Frank (21 years ago, 11-Feb-04, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, lugnet.town)
