(...) Its a nice "ray" gun. The CADing is fantastic. How did you CAD that white turtle neck sweater that the MOC is sitting on? It's almost so real and life like. Good job. we're seeing more and more realistic CAD's on LUGNET. ;) Chris (19 years ago, 18-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) 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 (19 years ago, 15-Dec-05, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) 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?

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.
