There s a Znapp group down below your list.

These elements are usable for round structures, Im using the round elements
to create an round roof on a stadium.

But the elements can be used for bridges and so on, steel structures.

The best bargain in Znapp is box 3552, incl an technic engine and an battery
box.

| All- Since this post has elements of about ten different newsgroups in it, I'll just post it here in .general and see where it rolls. I just took advantage of the TRU BOGO-50 sale and picked up a heapin' helpin' of ZNAP. These are really nice (...) (25 years ago, 18-Apr-00, to lugnet.general)
