  More train work this week...
 
I cleaned off the kitchen table this week, in order to sort some LEGO bought over the past few months, and to *finally* build something! I worked on a couple new iterations of the multi-bed 'well-car' designs. I'd made a new page ((URL) to document (...)

I see this is a pretty high traffic group :-) I figured I should post something, just so Edmonton gets some representation during the year 2001 :-) I don't know if I count though, seeing as I don't actually own any Lego yet.

  Re: Paypal, X.com, etc...
 
(...) www.iescrow.com is worldwide. The downside, however, is that there is a service fee ($2.50 under $100, 4% surcharge on $100 to $25,000 or some other big number like that).
