| | | | | Yeah, I'd be interested in instruction scans on a DVD. I never slogged through Brickshelf to build a DVD, because I didn't want to chew up KL's bandwidth. (...) -- Tom Stangl *(URL) Visual FAQ home *(URL) Visual FAQ Home (19 years ago, 28-May-05, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | | I started downloading the instructions back in 1999. Whenever something new became available, I would download it. Slow and steady. Easy like Sunday mornin'. I doubt this bothered Kevin :) Along the way, I would replace brickshelf scans with better (...) (19 years ago, 29-May-05, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | | Ok, Lego does its own job of hosting instructions at: (URL) TLG was funding BrickShelf, I can see why they would drop this duplicate expense. My questions are: What instructions on BrickShelf are not duplicates of the TLG ones? Is TLG committed to (...) (19 years ago, 2-Jun-05, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | | | (...) TLG's instruction database is pretty incomplete, though. For example, their themes list doesn't contain Pirates at all, and when I tested a particular Pirate set (6285, Black Seas Barracuda), they had no instructions for it. I think it's great (...)

But we didn't have many instructions books. My son and I figured out which sets (...) (19 years ago, 3-Jun-05, to lugnet.general)

These instructions compliment those hosted on Brickshelf because of Brickshelf's self imposed rule of not accepting instruction scans from current and recent (1-2 years (...)

Not that the instructions don't generate their own heaping swath, it's (...) (19 years ago, 2-Jun-05, to lugnet.general)
