| | | | | Sword'd!
|
| Even though (I think) Space > Castle, Castle is still a good theme, and I like to induldge myself in it every so often. The other day in French class, my teacher said our big project for this term (counting for 50% of the term's mark) will be to (...)

| (...) Hahah! Good one, but I like my hair the way it is. Actually, I'd like to grow it a bit longer, and if I could, grow a beard to go with it. (...) Indeed, but I practically ran out of plates on this, so a sheild is right out of the question. But (...) (20 years ago, 6-Feb-05, to lugnet.castle)

| Hey, Matt! Very cool! I particularly like your choice of the 8x8 grille plates for the scabbard! Sweet touch. How long did it take you? I built a sword myself awhile ago, check it out if you like: (URL) Sklar" <matthew.sklar@gmail.com> wrote in (...) (20 years ago, 6-Feb-05, to lugnet.castle)
| | | | | Re: Sword'd!
|
| (...) Hey, thanks! The 8x8 grille plates were added mainly because I ran out of regular black plates, but I do like the way it came out. The whole thing, scabbard and sword, probably took about 5 to 10 hours, but that's including prototypes and (...) (20 years ago, 7-Feb-05, to lugnet.castle)

| (...) Indeed, as I've often suspected. If you examine a castler closely you're likely to find a spacer hidden or locked within. (Or, perhaps, bricked in...) That's an excellent use of parts, Bruce. Concept proved. Engreebled as it is, there's not a (...) (20 years ago, 7-Feb-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| Hi, Now this isn't my first castle posted online, but it is one of my first I built. I just never got around to the finishing touches and taking pictures of it until yesterday.

| "And in that very moment, away behind in some courtyard of the City, a cock crowed. Shrill and clear he crowed, recking nothing of wizardry or war, welcoming only the morning that in the sky far above the shadows of death was coming with the dawn." (...)

| | | | | Spiral Staircase
|
| Here's a spiral staircase for those of you who do stately homes or castles. You might like to make a mirror image pair of them for a mansion. (URL) To get plates to stack at angles I had to use tiles, so unfortunately the minifigure can't stand on (...) (20 years ago, 9-Feb-05, to lugnet.town, lugnet.castle, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !!

| | | | | Re: Happy Year of the Rooster
|
| (...) Sorry no. But you can repost to announce.moc and request cancels. If you request a cancel for both the prior posts in the thread (By URL specifically, a vague request will not do) I'll make this post go away too. As long as no one else posts, (...)
