|
| Dang! You beat me - I'm working on a similar kind of window... (...) I'm using transclear 1x1 and 1x2 for the glasses, with studs out to make them look like crown glass, and I use two plates stacked on each other to improve the overall stability of (...)

| (...) Thanks :) Hum, I'm sure there is still a lot of building techniques. I made a presentation at BricMania about one, ToPLeSs, and I have to finish the traduction in english to post it. (...) That was an idea from Didier. It was just a fake. But (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)

|
| (...) Thanks :) Well, it depends maybe of our vision of what is SNIR. The 1x1 parts are not adjacent but in diagonal. And the alignment of the turned parts creates an offset. So we obtain a lign of studs, not in the standard way but in diagonal. (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, FTX)

However I would say that they have ended up in a (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, FTX)

In a first attempt, the idea was to make an hoax just for fun, as the one I made when I was studying chemistry at university (not LEGO related). Of course volume I doesn't exist. I can't tell (...)

I love that kind of window, there is a good chance to find it in a new (...) (20 years ago, 17-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)

There's been thought, but nothing conclusive... thus far my goal has been a game that can be taught and enjoyed easily at a gaming con like GenCon or Origins, and if I were to differentiate weapons, there would have to be a lot more work in (...)

| (...) Well, to be picky, it's not *exactly* the same thickness. A tile is 0.4 "stud-widths" thick, but the distance between 2 such windows is about 0.414 (square-root of 2 minus 1) stud-widths. Over a larger area you would start to notice the (...) (20 years ago, 16-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, FTX)
