In my role as a self-appointed Brick Detective, I have made up a webpage to
help identify sets in which a certain "special" baseplate or boat hull is used.
If you have a raised baseplate, one with paint, or a singe or multi-piece boat
hull, for example, you can look through a page of pictures of pieces like that
to determine to what set it belongs.  (It's easier to use than to explain.)
This started as a collection of Brickshelf pages for my own use, and I've
finally got it cleaned up enough for public consumption.  Please have a look
and tell me what I've missed (I'm sure there are some things) or any other
comments you may have.  Hope it's found to be useful!

(...) Nice job, although some lugnet links are not working right, like 481. You missed 928 and plate only sets like 300 and 815. (24 years ago, 22-Aug-00, to lugnet.db.inv)

6199 also has a "canyon with raised corner" plate. It's light blue with dark gray and black deco. ~Mark (24 years ago, 22-Aug-00, to lugnet.db.inv)
  Re: Announcing: The Baseplate Finder
 
Well, I had a nice large list of about 30 or more sets, unfortunately my stupid system crashed because of running out of memory. One thing which would be good is to sub-divide things more, and perhaps try and make smaller pictures. The road plates (...) (24 years ago, 23-Aug-00, to lugnet.db.inv)

(...) Could it be that the useful of a resource is directly proportional to the number of nits that people immediately post about it? If so, I'm about to add to the usefulness-index of the Baseplate Finder... You might want to change the verbiage at (...) (24 years ago, 23-Aug-00, to lugnet.db.inv)
