I couldn't get my dinosaurs to stand securely to the box lid. ("http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/fwcain/fx/dino-lid-island/just_the_dino_lid .jpg") So, I came up with an idea on how to make an insert into the top of the box lid, to make a more secure base for the dinosaurs to stand atop. (Incidentally, this makes a good island, however small, for "Evil Stevie's Pirate Game".) Here's how: "http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/fwcain/fx/dino-lid-island/island_step1.jpg" "http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/fwcain/fx/dino-lid-island/island_step2.jpg" "http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/fwcain/fx/dino-lid-island/island_step3.jpg" "http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/fwcain/fx/dino-lid-island/island_step4.jpg" (BTW: After creating the images, I found an improvement. In "Step 4", substitute two 2x6 plates for the two 2x4 plates, using four extra round 1x1 plates in the "corners", and then add four more round 1x1 plates. This actually connects the insert to the lid more securely! ;-) And here's the result: "http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/fwcain/fx/dino-lid-island/000.jpg" Please LMKWYT! ;-) Thanks, Franklin

[sigh]... I hate line-wraps! >:-( I've uploaded a (shorter) filename for the image of the Dinosaur box lid by itself: "(URL) (22 years ago, 26-May-02, to lugnet.general)
