(...) I thought that's why we included a guidelines sections. So we could differentiate between what is required and what isn't. This approach is more confusing, not less. Derek (19 years ago, 13-Jan-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

This is the answer I got: (...) Yes (...) No (...) Pick a colour for your walls that you have matching hinge bricks for, or reconfigure so the hinge is one stud behind the wall. Then it doesn't mater what colour the hinge is. Derek (19 years ago, 13-Jan-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

So a few questions for rtl20 I think Derek asked this one--the 4 stud width beside the opening--does ths mean it can be 4 studs until the next opening, or does each opening require it's own 4 stud walls with no overlap?

(...) I'm going through this too. I find I can build components studless reasonably well, but I can't figure out how to tie them together. I find I have to friction pin them to some studded beams and build the supporting structure that way. Derek (19 years ago, 12-Jan-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
