|
|
(...) Ben, Thanks for the info, The trebuchet I built is much bigger than the one that you sent me a link to. I had to make it bigger to get enough weight to toss a 2x2 brick more than three feet. I think I can modify it with some ideas I got from (...) (16 years ago, 24-Jul-08, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

Hi Happy Builders, Long time not been showing (off) some building ideas. Now that I've cleaned my Lego corner I came around my Owl Tower. Just an idea I wanted to picture: an tower formed with owl-heads. Structure is like Hagrid's Hut (1st one). (...) (16 years ago, 24-Jul-08, to lugnet.castle)

Folks, Does anyone have any recommendations for how to build a functioning trebuchet that is minifig scale? I have tried it several times and it always comes out too large. The other issue I have is making a trigger that doesn't snag when it goes (...) (16 years ago, 20-Jul-08, to lugnet.castle)

BrickFair is right around the corner, this labor day weekend in DC. I'll be coordinating the Castle display this year- so who's coming? What are you bringing? I'd like to get an idea of whether we'll have enough mocs to produce a castle city as has (...) (16 years ago, 20-Jul-08, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.events)

I just received the July-August Brickmaster magazine today, and on page 23 it tells of a LEGO Castle Adventure that's a touring exhibit. It starts on January 31, and guess where it starts... The Children's Museum of Indianapolis!!! (Really nice for (...) (16 years ago, 1-Jul-08, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.announce, lugnet.events, lugnet.loc.us.in.ind, FTX)

(...) Hi Mike, Yes, I considered this possibility in the beginning, but I was not convinced by the vectorization process. One key issue is that silk-screened parts are far from perfect (misprints, color registration problems...). I found that (...)

Reading your tutorial made me wonder whether scans of the orignal parts could be vectorized using Inkscape (Inkscape includes an automatic raster-to-vector converter). The resultant SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) file could then maybe be converted (...) (16 years ago, 10-Jun-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.vikings, lugnet.castle, FTX)

My intent was as someone stated, a "cautionary tale" and a request for others to keep a lookout ... admittedly a desperate request because the person possessing the lost set could also read the post and remove the identifying sticker. I hoped that (...) (16 years ago, 3-Jun-08, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

The content, while probably off-topic for castle, is not off-topic per se, in my view. I've set the FUT to (...)

In my opinion, it is definitely not honest to make public his full name, member name (...) (16 years ago, 1-Jun-08, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
