|
| (...) Thanks all for the kind words! When John Gerlach brought his amazing new 3.3 megapixel digital camera (with 340 MB Microdrive!) to our weekly G.M.L.T.C. meeting he kindly agreed to take pictures of some of my MOC's. He even burned me a CD with (...) (26 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)

| (...) I figure that any scale is fine as long as you stick to it if you want to display your models together. For example, one of my semi's (the tanker) would work well with <set:2448>, but still dwarfs a four wide. My eight-wide (the trailer, not (...)

| (...) Hey, I'm a 6-8 wide fan myself! I would never build a 4-wide truck in "minifig-scale." I consider 6-wide to be a better minifig scale, especially for trucks. --Bram Bram Lambrecht / o o \ BramL@juno.com ---...---oooo-----(_...o---...--- WWW: (...)

I was taking a shot at TLC for making *minifig* vehicles 4 wide. In fact, I have tried modeling 4 wide (...) (26 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)

|
| (...) I stumbled upon this truck yesterday when the only pics on there were 3 of the Quint itself. Now I see there are pics of a school bus, U-Haul, and a medic unit also. Its a nice apparatus, with lots of detail, but its quite wide, a full 8 studs (...) (26 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)

| (...) Hey! I sure hope you have your bestest asbestos suit on :-) As an avid 4-wide microfig modeller (those oversized minifigs are just too big), I can assure you that building detail into a 4-wide model is often a good way to explore new uses for (...)

| (...) I agree; Bill's creations are even more spectacular in person. Those pics were taken by John Gerlach at our (GMLTC) meeting last week using his new digital camera. Although not a new MOC (I think Bill built it last fall), this might be its (...) (26 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)

I had a BLAST with the WAMALUG gang on Friday and again on tuesday. It's all about (...) (26 years ago, 14-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.mn, lugnet.trains)

Never mind that you have several years as a head start on BayLTC and the backing of the biggest privite LEGO brick collection in the world, we will make you work to keep that title - if you (...)

| Hi! Can't say that I've ever been to a GMLUG meeting, but the GMLTC is located primarily out of Minneapolis. We may not be the best way to get started into LEGO trains since our layout style requires an unrealistic amount of bricks to incorporate. (...)
