(...) Couldn't you make a micro-motor drive a cam with a beam resting against it, so the beam is tapping a small bell? =) (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

Ok, we are getting things rolling and my Train Duel crossing is going to kick. Wait until you see the lights. The only thing missing is the 'ding' sound... I'm going to need aprox 20 more 1by8 gray tiles to make the second track and middle stretch. (...) (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

(...) I've got a crap load of Gray straights and curves myself. (With path) I'll use a gray road plate. That's a pretty good idea. Dean -- Coin-Op's For Sale!: (URL) Lego Workshop: (URL) Lego Club: (URL) (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

(...) I think we've got a plethora of straight grey road plates, so that's what I would suggest. We still may need to do a inventory count of all our different plates to ensure that our current layout will work. Robin (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc, lugnet.loc.ca.bc.van)

(...) I picked up two tubs from TRU. Full price though. Sigh... Anyway I can do the second Tank. Not bad. One thing. What colour base Plate should it be? Maybe a straight plate so the trucks can drive up to it? Gray or green? Or if half plates, (...) (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc, lugnet.loc.ca.bc.van)

(...) I'm always thinking of the aesthetic before the function, I suppose. I think we should be able to do it the same way we did the rest of the layout, the baseplates especially. Once the layout is finalized with track and baseplates, we have very (...) (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

(...) I actually don't like this change. It removes 2 baseplates worth of building room and I don't think we have much to spare. I know it means we don't have a road crossing the curved tracks, but myself I don't care much about that, I wouldn't try (...) (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)
