Hi Adam!
Welcome to Knoxville! Sorry for the delay, I am not used to newgroups and
have difficulty navigating all the spots. I used to work in copiers and printer
repair and its only since my disability that I have been involved very much
with computing. I had a bref glimmer in my dark ages around 81/82 when my mom
bought me the technic auto chassis 8860 for christmas. I immediately had to get
another to build the four wheel drive/independant suspension, flat 6 indy racer
for my stuffed raccoon :). Alas, I only have a blurred polaroid of it.My
brother gave me some of his sets ,all technic, and, until about two years ago,
was able to contain them in a fairly compact fishing tackle box. With the
introduction of the adventurers sets, I discovered the joys of mini figs. since
then my collection has expanded to two full four shelf units and about a
hundred plano 3700 storage boxes. I seem to spend more time sorting than
building anything. I got plans , buts plans mean nothing till you do something
with them. Anyway, here is the info !
