  [rtlToronto] 2002 Demo Reel
 
Hi folks, This is the rtlToronto 2002 Demo Reel (Been Caught Stealing) that was presented at Brickfest 2002 this weekend: (URL) MPEG1 352x240 It was done for the Building Competition Robots talk to give folks an idea of the stuff we do in our group, (...)

  The Zen of Brickfest....
 
(...) Talk about Laughing out Loud!!!! Actually I had a pretty good time, I just felt more at "home" in the castle room. ;) The trains were very nice, and the robots were just breathtaking. Lots of pictures will be posted on Brickshelf in the next (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Webcams
 
(...) It was a good presentation. But I was baffled why no rtlToronto folks were in the scree runner mechanical competition... it was pretty exciting! Not that many serious contestants though... lots of interesting mechanisms used (this is sort of a (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jul-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) (URL) !!!rtlToronto!!! ¯¯¯...¯¯¯ I believe I just saw Ben, Calum and Jeff VW sittin’ together on Cam 4. And Frank Filz is a few rows ahead of them. Couldn’t make out anyone else though… =) Looks like fun, --==Richard==-- (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Re: Stop doing that Ben!
 
(...) I believe it's some sort of a demo/contest involving a rover crossing 9747-sized box filled with Lego pieces. I caught the 'back pack cam' as it was looking down on the game field. I think it's back in the mindstorms room again - hurry! the (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Stop doing that Ben!
 
(...) YEP, that's Ben all right...... I saw the web cam, and I'm curious to know what's going on in the mindstorms room. Chris (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Stop doing that Ben!
 
Stop hanging out and playing in the castle room! Go to the Train room or the Mindstorms room! Get out! Get out now!! Ah, go have yer fun... ;) Dave -who thinks it's pretty neat to see his friends on-line at BrickFest. (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

I could be wrong, but I see a blue shirt, with a fuzzy logo on it--could be rtlToronto Oh I wish I could have made it! Yeah, if we could move the camera a (...)

(...) many (...) Well if you have to order them just so I won't have to, then don't worry about it I already got that sorted out. But thanks for the offer though. Ivan (22 years ago, 18-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Re: "Core" layout features for rtlTrainN
 
(...) Was going to mention this a while ago actually – my apartment building has a “party hall” that can be rented out for about $60. It’s pretty spacious, at least as big as the Library spot, if not larger. And the sweet thing is that it’s ours (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: "Core" layout features for rtlTrainN
 
(...) I don't think this is a requirement, but it is nice to have. Doesn't have to be very large. I think everything on the layout should be reachable within the width of one module. For example a 3x3 square with a module in the middle would be bad (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  "Core" layout features for rtlTrainN
 
I've captured one of my deisgns that I think is fairly good: (URL) 10 & 2/2 modules * 2 full loops for added engineer time * "Hightown" area raised 18 bricks encompassing 2 modules * Tunnel under Hightown for the lower loop * Either loop could be (...)

  "Core" layout features for rtlTrainN
 
I've been creating dozens of layouts in TrackDesigner. I see some things recurring, and I wanted to know how people felt about the importance of including certain features in a layout: (A) An "inside" centre space. _Description_: The modules, in at (...)

  Re: Some figure-8 layouts (was: Re: Yes I am nuts)
 
(...) I have one module and two half modules. As I've mentioned before, my apartment is very small so I don't have enough room to store modules. However I do have the capacity to build for more then just two full modules if needed. I'd just need (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Some figure-8 layouts (was: Re: Yes I am nuts)
 
So I've done a little more thinking. First, it occurs to me that this layout is sort of the minimum sized big-8 layout: (URL) requires 7 modules. It has no "inside" space It is too small to add any significant height change It has two separate (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Have a safe drive..... Do us proud. Find room to bring ALL the T-shirts to sell. THEN the profit can be used to pay for the rental of the library. ;) Oh, and Bring me back a present. :) Chris DO (22 years ago, 18-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
