 | | ISD build records
|
| I'm looking to compile a list of all the ISD build attempts. The first timed build that I remember occurred at BricksWest in Feb. 2002. Does anyone know who was on that team and how long it took them to build it? For each attempt I am hoping to find (...)

This means that the PDX record is even longer, as an 11th member of the team was added (the seal) without anyone noticing! (...)
