    Re: Do you need plates or/and 1x? bricks? —Larry Pieniazek
   (...) I'm interested in buying these, my wants page has my prices. But it's not economical for me to buy them at auction, too much time spent on it, as the quantities I want are large, and managing 20 lots of 10 pieces each isn't worth the bother. (...)

     (...) I agree with this. I was able to come up with around $80 of stuff without too much trouble. (And it's nice to know the pieces are going into the custom hoppers!) Larry's wants page is at: (URL) McCarthy/ (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

   Larry, Are the magnet assemblies that come with some of the Insectoids sets useful in train work ? I've noticed that 'Cosmic Creeper' has dropped to about $3 at some WMs. Ray (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

   They are useful to some but not to me. I use the stock buffer and magnet holder in most all of my designs. The few places where I don't (the nose of big red, for example), I have enough. John Neal might be interested in them, though. (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

   (...) Were you going to mount that turntable sideways? I'm taking about flexing around a horizontal axis of rotation (that is, in a vertical plane)... so I don't see how the turntable helps matters. (25 years ago, 28-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: New Couplers (was Re: Do you need plates or/and 1x? bricks? —Mike Poindexter
   Larry, the turntable will add a little bit of flex. Considering that John's trains are really long, the angle is substantially less than one would get with 6 wide trains. Also, I would be willing to bet that John is limited to slopes of 1 (...) (25 years ago, 28-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)
