Thanks.  That's high praise coming from a couple of guys whom I consider to
be truly amazing builders!  You make me laugh with the 5 finger hinge
question-- I am only aware of it in one set.  It took at least a half a year
of searching to collect that many, 1 and 2 at a time!  The actual bulk
bricks used were the 1x2, 2x4 tan bricks, and the 1x2x2 white windows.

Actually, I have already built 6 more buildings that are in that same design
motif -- I still need to get pics of them.
