  Re: Hobby Show--huh??
 
(...) Hey guys, This is insane. If Hobby Show wants us there, they can pay for tables and electricity. If they can't, I guess they can take any mention of Lego off their website, and pictures of anything we've done. I'm sick of these cheapskates (...)

  Re: Hobby Show--huh??
 
(...) I totally agree on both points. My understanding of the previous years was that the display booths were there to draw in the crowds and the vendors then paid to have their booths and sell to the people attending. The deal was (and we stuck to (...) (19 years ago, 26-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca.on)
 
  Re: Hobby Show--huh??
 
(...) I've done lots of conventions and having to pay for electricity isn't that uncommon, but having to pay for tables and chairs is unheard of! That sucks. I was going to suggest the train tables, but Derek beat me to it. Convention centres (...) (19 years ago, 26-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca.on)

  Re: Hobby Show--huh??
 
(...) My first impulse is we're out. I don't think we should have to pay money to put on a show for them. On second though I don't want to miss out on seeing everyones work. So I guess the big question is, how much? For tables, I can bring my train (...) (19 years ago, 26-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca.on)
 
  Hobby Show--huh??
 
So I just received a phone call from Christine--she's helping organize the clubs who are attending the hobby show. so bottom line--we have to bring our own tables and chairs (or rent them) AND if we want electicity, we have to rent that from the (...)

Hello to everyone & GBC addicts! I went To Breakfast Television on Tuesday, sept 13, to present the now VERY famous Great Ball Contraption (GBC).

(...) I still think it's a neat idea. And there's nothing wrong with a facade. (...) I'm building it horizontal, so that: a) It won't run the risk of falling (a la my CN Tower) b) I can build more detail into the top and bottom of each stage, (...)

  Re: Where do we go from here...
 
(...) Well I'm not sure. I'm hoping not to put too much effort into the train show. My area is more or less complete. I just want to add more details. By the way, what are the dates for the Train Show? Dave? If this is the case, it would be (...) (19 years ago, 13-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca.on)
 
  Re: A familiar uniform on a minifig MOC
 
Excellent work! I've never thought of using epoxy putty to build up a custom lego element, but it seems perfectly suited to the job - I do use it for all sorts of other household repairs. Love that stuff. When painting that small, do you use (...) (19 years ago, 12-Sep-05, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.parts.custom, lugnet.parts.mod, lugnet.town)
