Due to a family death, I will be unable to attend this Sunday's build session. I want to let everyone know the project is completed, so I will present it on the 5th of October. I know it's cutting it close, but if need be, I can arrange a meeting (...) (21 years ago, 27-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)

The sky wheel (Ferris wheel-type thing) is finished. Since I won't be at any build sessions, I want to give you dimensions so you can allocate room. The front and back are 52 studs wide and the sides are 36 studs long. It's not mounted on base (...) (21 years ago, 26-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)

Hi Brian, The plans are perfect. I'm going to make 5 for you to motorize some of the switches on your DCC loop. I know I have a few more motors but I just can't seem to get my hands on them with a more extensive search. Are you going to be at any of (...) (21 years ago, 19-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)
