The following is a link to a story that appears on our website. The one omission to the story was the fact that we consistantly had about 80% more folks around our layout than any other at the show.

Eric Strand brought this to my attention.... I have never seen these before in yellow...

Here's a few Christmas ornaments I built this year for our first Christmas tree. (URL) This one is a simple wrapped package, using my modest collection of gold bricks.

(...) Besides what Eric already explained, the classic Lego scale (Lego 1x2x3 classic door is 3 bricks tall) is 1:87. That scale was phased out between 1973-80, when first the 1x3x4 door came out (produced 1973-80). The minifig scale 1x4x5 door came (...) (19 years ago, 18-Dec-05, to lugnet.general)

Too bad the linked pages use a non "lugnet" amazon.com affiliate link, thereby driving a bunch of traffic from lugnet to a page that doesn't support lugnet. I wonder, is "bricksolutions-20" your amazon affilite code? (19 years ago, 16-Dec-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)
