| (...) Yes, they do still do door-to-door knife sharpening (well, it's not strictly door-to-door, it's more housecall). I saw it on an episode of Good Eats a while ago. This guy pulls up to your house with a van full of sharpening gear and goes (...) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Dean, You have a nice creation there. I like a number of the details you included, the rubber band for a measuring tape, the shirts along the wall, the dragon plume for a quill, all very good. As you work on your next one, some ideas that (...) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Broom maker is the right name so far as I know - it's the other two I'd question. Weaver, or perhaps just basket merchant if he didn't make them himself.

| (...) I am very suprised at how small these buildings turned out. They seem plenty big next to the minifigs, but I compare them to my town creations and they seem puny. Still I will probably continue in the same scale... it makes my bricks go (...) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.us.michlug, lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Doing a corner building was a treat. The bricks really make a nice roof, now if we could only get those pieces straight from LEGO instead of Bricklink, we do lots more of those. (...) Those houses were indeed part of a little village this past (...) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.us.michlug, lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Thanks. I lucked out with that stepped roof line. It just sorta happened while I was building and I thought it looked pretty good, so I just went with it. I'm sorry to say that the buildings do not have interiors. I had very little time to (...) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.us.michlug, lugnet.castle, FTX)
