(...) I would personally use the round, 2x2 'disc tiles' or whatever they are called. Slightly curved bottom, 4 studs on top, so they can attach to the bottom of your drawbridge plate. They're often used on small boats to keep them from 'sticking' (...) (25 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Ooooh, very nice. I loved the beach especially, and the door leading to the beach. I make my docks a little differently: I use one height of 1x2 and 1x4 brown "wood" sections (what Fort Legoredo is built with) above and below the rightmost and (...) (25 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.castle)
