  Basic Block Raygun
 
(URL) I have been sorting basic bricks lately and as a result have been playing with basic blocks while watching television. This is one of the random things I assembled. Calum (20 years ago, 18-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: [rtlToronto] rtlToronto20 Near Final Ruleset
 
(...) mmmm nope. Don't know why. I tried it in an offline copy. Printing from FireFox, I only get one page. The rest doesn't render :( Guess I'll have to keep using IE, or cut and paste... -Rob A> (20 years ago, 16-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Re: Got balls? Heads up.
 
(...) there is some new kind of harry potter "ball" that has a magnet in it. some version of Jeff Elliots train car detector could probably pick it out for this. Anyone played with harrys ball? Chris (20 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Got balls? Heads up.
 
(...) Oh, that would be a cool module, in addition to a ball counter. How would you display the time? Is there a way to do it besides using the RCX display? You could use the Red ball that always got stuck in your ball sorter at BrickFest... Steve (20 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Got balls? Heads up.
 
(...) That was my intention. Since the Horta eggs are slightly bigger, droping the balls onto twoproperly spaced parallel rails should work: soccer balls fall between the rails, while the horta eggs roll down the rails and back into the module.

  Re: Got balls? Heads up.
 
(...) Actually, it would be kind of cool to have a module that just circulates the eggs & balls, but only passes the balls forward. No one else has to deal with them, as long as you don't let them out. Sort of like this module (from Brian Davis): (...) (20 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Got balls? Heads up.
 
(...) Janey, thanks for playing with these new balls and telling us all about them. Brian, if you wanted to make a module that passes soccer, but retains horta eggs, then you would need to make EVERY module be able to deal with both sized balls. (...)

(...) If you don't like the black and white color scheme, just wait - we're finding the black is wearing off fairly fast :-) (...) Wild. They look like the LEGO version of Horta eggs. (...) Thanks for the heads-up, but now I'm interested in them as (...) (20 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)
 
  Re: Got balls? Heads up.
 
(...) ... (...) Janey, I know what you mean about soccer balls moving around. At the last train show, a few people were talking about the "soccer ball factory". We may go that direction next time. I'm sure painting them won't work. I think LEGO did (...) (20 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
