(...) it (...) to (...) <large ungainly snip> Thomas, you're right on. I can see eventually photos of _every_ part being at Peeron, but of course where an image exists at Partsref, that one's used instead, since mostly they're straightforward except (...)

  A (somewhat unhelpful) Suggestion
 
I have a suggestion. The main problem with it (at least that I see) is that it involves quite a bit of work which I have neither the tools, talent, or time to contribute. Recently I have come up with what I think is a Pretty Neat Idea. Motivating (...) (23 years ago, 7-Apr-01, to lugnet.db.brictionary)

(...) this piece? (URL) made up a name for it, since we couldn't find one either: "Spring 2 x 2 x 2 & 1/3" :) FUT: lugnet.db.brictionary Dan (23 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: Set inventory for 6094
 
(...) That's it! Didn't look hard enough. . . OK, I was confused because PartsRef naming conventions appear to have changed. I think it's a good change, but it would be more obvious if Castle Walls and Castle Wall Corners were moved from the Castle (...) (23 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.db.brictionary)

  Re: Part 6072
 
(...) Yeah, I'd rather do .6 or .7 or .67 or even b2p than & 2/3, but that's the existing standard, and I'm not prepared to tackle a re-do. Steve (23 years ago, 20-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: Part 6072
 
ok, we changed ours to match that (it won't appear on the web site until i update it there though, which will be later, i'm busying inventorying the 5571 right now, so whenever i finish that). not to be whatever, but i'm not a big fan of (...) (23 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: Part 6072
 
(...) I'll mostly agree with Clark and Heather. For LDraw-ish-ness, I'd go with "Castle Turret 7 x 7 x 2 & 1/3 Quarter". If this part is ever modeled in LDraw, it's likely the existing part, (URL), would be renamed to "Castle Turret 4 x 8 x 2 & 1/3 (...) (23 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: Part 6072
 
Well, the half-octagonal <part:6066> is "Castle Turret Top 4 x 8 x 2 & 1/3" according to LDRAW, so this one could be similar - perhaps "Castle Turret Corner 7 x 7 x 2 & 1/3". Should start with Castle, anyway, so as to sort with the other Castle (...) (23 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: Part 6072 Name suggestion
 
Castle Turret Quarter 7 x 7 x 2 & 1/3 Since it's one-fourth of a complete turret and similar to the Castle Turret Top. (23 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: Part 6072
 
(...) heh, good point - I had no idea what this part was, had to look up the instructions on brickshelf, then dig up the part to make sure it was indeed that number. Took a picture and will put it up in a few minutes... As for the name change, I'm (...) (23 years ago, 18-Mar-01, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Part 6072
 
I just noticed that part 6072 (according to Peeron) has a really bad name right now: Crenelations 7 x 7. Now, I really hate this piece, but it's been around for eight years now and I would have had no idea what it was if I didn't own set 6076. Does (...)

  Re: How to join Brictionary project?

There's a related project (ongoing) which right now (or recently was) taking a look at reorganizing names and categories for LDraw parts -- a great place to help with that out would be to check around in the lugnet.cad.dev group.

  How to join Brictionary project?
 
This group seems to be pretty quiet most of the time. I was wondering just what exactly the current status was of the Brictionary project and how someone who has not previously been involved with it (i.e., myself) could become a part of it. It's a (...)

  Re: Which sets had the following in them?
 
I remember the Pizza To Go set had a white window frame with white shutters on the back of the delivery van. Of course mine are sort of yellow now, its an old set. You probably won't find it in a store, but if you use auctions then you might be able (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jul-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.db.brictionary, lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.db.scans)

  Do brown 1x4 bricks exist?
 
I'm working on the 3rd story of my brown and tan building. Why have I never seen a 1x4 brown brick? Do they exist? Where? Just when we get some brick bulk paks, I develop a need for an unavailable color! (24 years ago, 4-Jul-00, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
