    Announcing: The Baseplate Finder —Heather Patey
   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 (...) (24 years ago, 22-Aug-00, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.announce) !

     (...) 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 —Frank Filz
     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)

I thought about smaller images, but since it's a visual index, one needs to be able to examine the (...) (24 years ago, 23-Aug-00, to lugnet.db.inv)

     (...) That would help some, though I was trying to have all the windows open so I could just run down the town list and checking it against your list. I suppose the better way to to it is to just run down the list, and then check for dupes later. (...) (24 years ago, 23-Aug-00, to lugnet.db.inv)
    
         Re: Announcing: The Baseplate Finder —Heather Patey
     (...) I knew there was something about the baseplates in 6332, but I don't own it and it's too new for Brickshelf, as are the others you list. I'm making a list of scans I need, and will call for volunteers soon. (snip) (...) Pre-minifig stuff I (...) (24 years ago, 24-Aug-00, to lugnet.db.inv)
   
        Re: Announcing: The Baseplate Finder —Steve Bliss

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)

     (...) Well, off the top of my head, I didn't see this one: (URL) Precinct HQ) Also 6584 Extreme Team Challenge has a different baseplate (too recent for brickshelf scans though) And I've also seen another corner raised baseplate that you didn't (...)

      (...) I (...) I think you mean 6079. If you look carefully at the lake, it's actually raised to be just above the level of the inside raised part on the 6079 baseplate. Of course the 4291 doesn't have that raised section. Frank (24 years ago, 24-Aug-00, to lugnet.db.inv)
    
         Re: Announcing: The Baseplate Finder —David Eaton
     (...) Huh! I've never seen set 4291 in stores or anything-- I actually knew the other two (from 6079) but the ones with the tan painting were the ones I was curious about...

     (...) several (...) 6079 I meant, yes. But what happened to the little hill in the centre of the curve - shouldn't it stick out of the pond? The 4291's are indeed nice, and I do believe they were a Canada-only, perhaps even a Zellers-only, release, (...) (24 years ago, 24-Aug-00, to lugnet.general)
    
         Re: Announcing: The Baseplate Finder —Frank Filz
     (...) That's why I was saying, look carefully at how the pond is built. The centre hill is shorter than the outside hill, and the pond is just built at the elevation of the top of the center hill. This is really apparent where the waterfall exits (...)
