  Re: Peeron inventories
 
(...) Dan:I sent the corrections to you and they are still going to the person that was doing them before. I can send them all to you if you want. I do not know how you can veryify these as I do from the actual sets. At most the wrong ones were (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron inventories
 
(...) I did not think that there was a problem because I would go with the inventory on Peeron, not building all the sets. But once I started building them and checking the problem appeared. I was doing this because I wanted to make sure that my (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron inventories
 
(...) John, I got your email 2 days ago, and was trying to find out more details before replying to you. These 1000 emails you sent? Where did you send them to? When? In the past month, I see you sent something like 6 emails to inv@peeron.com? You (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron inventories
 
(...) I have inventoried about 900 sets so far. What I do is to print the inventory on Peeron. Check it against what is in my set (most of which I bought and kept myself since 1974), compare the pieces against peeron and then built the item. I think (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron inventories
 
(...) Agreed, Orion. I've never submitted an inventory, but I've had occasion to double-check sets against what's listed on Peeron, and haven't had anywhere near the results stated above. The only inconsistency I've found have been in the "extra (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron inventories
 
(...) Is that 95% of the total? I must say, I'm entirely satisfied with the accuracy of the Peeron inventories, but then, I'm only referencing a very small selection. If your claim isn't about 95% of the total, could you clarify what your sample is? (...) (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: Peeron inventories
 
(...) This is a pretty strong statement. Being someone who has submitted an inventory in the past, I'm curious to know exactly what is wrong with them. -Orion (18 years ago, 8-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Peeron inventories
 
I still have not heard from Dan, but I am finding that 95% of the inventories are incorrect. I would suggest not to go by the inventories on Peeron as I have now sent in 1000 emails with corrections and pictures and most are just sitting there not (...) (18 years ago, 7-Mar-07, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: Interesting technic piece, possible town use
 
(...) That's a ZNAP part. It is LEGO. (URL) (18 years ago, 28-Feb-07, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.inv, lugnet.town)
 
  Interesting technic piece, possible town use
 
While wandering around Bricklink, I found this auction. (URL) Does anyone recognize the curved part in the lower left of the 3rd photo down? I am not nearly up to speed on technic parts as I should be. The curve appears to be made around a 3 stud (...) (18 years ago, 28-Feb-07, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.inv, lugnet.town)
 
  Re: peeron inventory corrections
 
Hi John-- Tim is correct, this probably belongs in a different Lugnet group such as lugnet.db.inv or lugnet.inv. Personally, I guess I'd recommend lugnet.inv, since I believe "lugnet.db" was generally more intended for database discussions rather (...) (18 years ago, 12-Feb-07, to lugnet.general, lugnet.inv)
 
  Updated my Photo-Inventory Page
 
There are now over 80 sets broken out by their full contents in an easy to view listing. (dialup warning, it's a big one) (URL) all the photos can be browsed in my Brickshelf folder here. (slightly more dialup friendly) (URL) note: Almost 25 (...) (18 years ago, 13-Nov-06, to lugnet.inv)
 
  peeron inventories
 
I wrote awhile back complaining about the inventories at Peeron. I am happy to say that Clark has been taking my emails and correctingthe inventories and adding the pictures of sets and parts that I have been sending. I feel rather sorry for him as (...) (18 years ago, 6-Nov-06, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: Extra parts no longer consistent?
 
(...) Probably bad to reply to myself, but I've had a change in thought on the last comment I made above. I'm now thinking the sensitivity/tolerence of the scales (and other counting devices/methods) has been increased. The change in thought came (...) (18 years ago, 17-Oct-06, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Extra parts no longer consistent?
 
Lately, I've been noticing that the extra parts included with sets is no longer consistent. The extra parts in the set I have can be a lot dfferent than those listed in the inventories at Peeron or BrickLink. (I've also noticed differences in what (...) (18 years ago, 17-Oct-06, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: part weight inventory
 
(...) That was my guess too, but yeah, no way to verify. Unless of course someone wants to take a high-precision scale to every Lego element out there and post the results. Or, if the Lego Company wants to tell us all what the weights are! (...) I (...) (18 years ago, 18-Sep-06, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: part weight inventory
 
(...) We assume, but cannot verify, that the weight submissions we get on BrickLink have actually been weighed on a scale. Some submitters add notes with their submissions such as "100 white bricks weighed on a +/- .01g scale" or something like (...) (18 years ago, 18-Sep-06, to lugnet.inv, FTX)
 
  Re: part weight inventory
 
(...) We discussed average piece weight in a recent thread: (URL) actually collected a lot of BrickLink's data in mid august. IIRC, I found in general that the BL weight was a little bit too heavy on average, when comparing to a few other sources of (...) (18 years ago, 17-Sep-06, to lugnet.inv)
 
  Re: part weight inventory
 
(...) Bricklink records the weight of many LEGO parts, however it's only approximate because two items of the same part can have different weights. ROSCO (18 years ago, 16-Sep-06, to lugnet.inv)
 
  part weight inventory
 
Hi, Is there alreddy a list with the weight of each LEGO part? Could be interesting for some purpose. Ludo (18 years ago, 16-Sep-06, to lugnet.inv)
