(...) Yes and no - a return to the Brick is a plus, but the drain on the wallet (especially with an addictive personality) is a negative. Bob (20 years ago, 28-Jun-04, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

(...) Here's an approximately stick-fig scale standard for the Moonbase: (URL) includes several different ways to build the connector. Each module should fit on a 16x16 baseplate (or some multiple thereof). --Bram (20 years ago, 28-Jun-04, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.space)

(...) The reason behind that is pretty simple. It's because I've entered many of the challenges. I've seen what other people out there can do, and I'm just lucky they haven't been entering. I was just looking over the rules, and (as usual) John's (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jun-04, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

(...) Thanks for the fast reply. I'll try to work out some scale that'll suit the bricks I intend to use best. Given the limitations of the method of transport (a suitcase) write me down for one baseplate 32*32. Color will be lightgrey. (20 years ago, 26-Jun-04, to lugnet.events.brickfest)
