  Re: BAYLUG meeting in Sunnyvale?

  BAYLUG meeting in Sunnyvale?
 
At the present time, we still can't get into the Fremont Library for a few months, due to the room still being booked out in advance. So, Mark Benz is willing to pursue asking his son's school (in Mountain View) if we could use the lunch room for a (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

I just discovered Lugnet and Baylug on the web a few weeks ago, and haven't had a chance to meet any of you yet. I'm currently working on a few Lego projects and will be putting up some web pages soon to highlight them. And I'm kicking myself for (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

  Re: The Limacion track design is BUILT!
 
That's really nice. I've made attempts at train bridges before, but never been very successful. Out of curiosity, did you copy a real bridge design, or did you design it yourself? I'm especially interested in the double-spiral on the one side of the (...) (24 years ago, 27-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sd, lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.trains)

Hi Adrian, that all is great!! I needed a while to sort out which way the trains go in the spiral! It's very compact build to reach an enourmous hight!
