  Simu-track
 
Ok since I don't have any track I made this simulated one for sizing on a baseplate. The reason is so I can size an overhead gantry prototype for Arcane Co.'s building which I (we) are still working on. What I need to know is the size (LxW) a (...)

  Re: Layout samples
 
(...) Easy enough to add a second loop to achieve what you're commenting on. You're right - I drew these up fron a single sided viewpoint, I think. I've added a couple more designs on Brickshelf - one is a separate disjointed loop and the other is (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

  Re: Layout samples
 
I guess I'm not very "up" on train displays, the only Lego ones I've seen up close were at BrickFest and BricksWest. What I notice about your layouts is they all feature only one continuously circulating track as far as I can see. I understand a lot (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)
 
  Layout samples
 
Hi All - I started generating some layout samples that use 5 of the 30x60 tables. See: (URL) also the puny single table (30x72, I think) layout I used at a show some years ago. With that as a scale, I think the 5 table design is easily attended to (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

*snip* (...) Tables have arrived! I took a brief opportunity to unpack one of them last night and set up 18 road plates on the top surface. My sons swarmed the table soon thereafter and started building on it. It's a very comfortable height, and (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)
 
  Meetings By-Laws (All members need your vote)
 
Someone must have been reading my mind last night. I've been trying to think of a better way to handle the meetings and what everyone will be required to do in order to (Leap of Faith) make more meetings. Here's what I'm thinking... Below is how I (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

  Lego Parts Draft
 
So far the few meetings that LUCNY has had have been a lot of fun for everyone and we have even managed to get some serious discussion done. Taking care of business should only be a small part of our get-togethers. This leaves more time for fun (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)
