  Re: BrikThulhu Rising
 
First the abomination of the nega bloktrix, then the fearsome two by two, now, as if in answer to the signs of the apocalypse, BrikThulhu. I am trying to figure out if BrikThulhu emerged from the illuminated portal on the left face of the pyramid. I (...) (21 years ago, 23-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Definitely. In fact, LEGO is essentially the ONLY toy I buy as gifts for children. (...) It is a great toy. It teaches creativity and should be part of everyone's childhood.

I've added (URL) The Shipyard> to Zemi.net. The gallery submission process is now automated with many thanks to Bram Lambrecht.

  BrikThulhu Rising
 
Every day seems to bring new evidence of conspiracies within conspiracies in the upper echelons of Lego - but it was only recently that I noticed what should have been obvious all along: any common brick, studs-out and with one corner pointing (...)

All, my colleague Jeff James has had some problems posting to LUGNET and asked me to forward this note along: === Hi All! This is my first post on LUGNET, so a quick introduction may be in order.

  Re: If you could wish for any single Lego element, what would it be?
 
The old robot head: (URL) - it is now known as "1x1 Brick With Studs on Four Sides". Your cad diagram does help conjure up what you meant. Perhaps another couple of rotated view might aid the process. Basing a concept on the (URL) may yet yeild a (...) (21 years ago, 22-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic)

(...) 1X2 triple convex slope at 33° in black. I don't need a bunch of them, but I do need them. I suspect many other builders need them too, from what I've seen as far as roof peak modifications with 33° roofs. (21 years ago, 21-Apr-05, to lugnet.general)  
 
  Re: Does it exist?
 
(...) Good call! That wasn't quite what I was envisioning, but I guess it qualifies. For that matter, one might make a half-hearted case that the "Space Positioning Rockets" might sort of partially qualify, with the one-stud-plate overhang. (...)
