| | Mini moonbase, anyone? Joe Strout
|
| | Hi guys, I know most of you are into space. I don't have very much space gear, but I did pick up a lunar baseplate at a garage sale the other day, and have been itching to find some use for it.

As to the mini-moonbase, I think it's cool but I'm not sure I'll have anything together by (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.loc.us.co)

| | | | | | (...) A lego display? I know we've had people show up informally and show such off, but we might. Let me email Rose and see what's possible. Which would you prefer: a) An area, like a hall table, where people would walk by and see it? b) An event on (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.loc.us.co)

I'm making the assumption that we're coming into this late in the game. Maybe next year we could be a (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.loc.us.co)

It has the advantage of not being something we've done recently, that I remember, which is always good. (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.loc.us.co)

| | | | | (...) Yep, the main thing that appeals to me about micro is that (I imagine) it requires less time and parts than building at minifig scale.
