  Re: OT - One red paperclip
 
But it is small town Saskatchewan... In some similar communities there the town will sell you a property if you just pay off the taxes owing on it. It probably has a value of <$20k. (cube van probably had a higher real word value :) The big question (...) (18 years ago, 10-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  R21 - Robot Status
 
So, just cause I miss the old days of R20 and the sharing: so, what kind of robots are you going to bring so that my robot can tug them to the floor? anyone? anyone? bueller? Chris (18 years ago, 9-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: LEGO.com instructions
 
(...) Well thanks Chris, I'm glad people find it useful. And don't forget you can keep abreast of updates by watching this page (URL) or just reading the BLOG regularly (I usually do an update every few weeks). ROSCO PS: So when do I get my RTL (...)

  LEGO.com instructions

I think its a nice resource and want to send (...) (18 years ago, 6-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto) !! 
 
  Re: New Battery Box
 
(...) I haven't. But you can pick up a copy of 4895 which should be everywhere by now. It got this new battery box. I'm sure you can stick a Technic brick 1x2 with hole on the switch and hook a (pneumatic?) mechanism to it. If that's too (...) (18 years ago, 5-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  New Battery Box
 
Anyone actually seen one of these in person? (URL) looks like the switch would be quite a bit harder to "automate" mechanically than the current two pushbuttons... (Is is time for a Lego relay?) -Rob A> (18 years ago, 5-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Re: I need to start paying more attention.
 
(...) Once in a while Lego puts out something REALLY bad. The last few years they've been designing some really fantastic sets...straight across the board. The Creator/Designer stuff is great...so...I guess once in a while something might slip by :) (...) (18 years ago, 5-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: July 22, RTL21 -- date
 
(...) Oops. I later realised I'd booked vacation around that weekend. Either Jon will head up our team that day or if I can pass off the robot to some responsible individual earlier in the week who can press "run" that would be super. :) Iain (18 years ago, 4-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: I need to start paying more attention.
 
(...) Well I don't knock it for it piece selection. Looks to be a lot of simple/basic brick, but it doesn't look like much. I also dislike the rendered product shots. I really prefer the photos of the real thing. The rendered image just makes it (...) (18 years ago, 4-Jul-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

The GOOD news, is that I will get to work my fireworks show on the 22, and keep little Abby accustomed to the life style she thinks she deserves. The BAD news (...)
