(...) Wow, those are all brilliant! Thanks! I was originally thinking of using these simply as big "demo" pieces for the students' digital models.. I have them do a brick in AutoCAD solids the first day, and my mock-up needed to be big so I could (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jun-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) Thanks Niels, I agree that the last time Lego made a 1x3x2 window in white (in a set) was in 1970. However, I have 2 examples of this window in white that have no window "sills". This means that they were produced after 1972. I just found the (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jun-04, to lugnet.general)

Yesterday I was looking at a Lego Shop At Home catalog, and I noticed that the 2x2 windows were still available in white in bulk packs of 25. I was wondering why these were still here. And then I realized that this window is still used in Legoland (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jun-04, to lugnet.general)
