(...) Bingo. Especially common part numbers which run in a sequence along with the size of related parts (like the 2x4, 2x3, 2x2, 2x1, 1x1 bricks are numbered in order from 3001 to 3005). I think Patrick's file has common, basic parts organized into (...) (26 years ago, 1-Mar-99, to lugnet.faq)

(...) A link would be cool, but then again is size really an issue in a FAQ? For me, anyway, the bigger the FAQ the better, 'cause it gives me something to read on those long car trips. :-, Cheers, - jsproat (26 years ago, 26-Feb-99, to lugnet.faq)

SW is Star Wars (except to a train nut like me in which case it's a prefix for a series of EMD switchers... SW-1, SW-9, SW-1500 and others) The FAQ is actually a group effort, rather than something that Todd is doing all by himself. I believe there (...) (26 years ago, 23-Feb-99, to lugnet.faq)
