(...) I understand and accept that viewpoint but I guess my goal is a little different in that I want to have the best display possible, one that wows the crowd, not necessarily one that includes only work of members, or one that is geared to be as (...)

(...) I agree. Just having baseplates affixed to plywood modular tables doesn't save much time at all. However (and let me be clear that I'm not advocating that we switch to the GMLTC modular system, not by any means at all) that's not what GMLTC (...)

(...) My point when we discussed it was that first and foremost, we do this for fun. We do it because we love building with LEGO. For that reason, our priority should be to give space to our members to display their own handiwork. If we've got stuff (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jun-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

On the other hand, our tear-down would be a lot quicker with a modular (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jun-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

Peter & All, Boy, I knew I should have waited before replying. I was too tired last night. I apologize for the last message here, it sounded really bad.

(...) We *can* do that, you know. Just takes time and money. GMLTC layout is modular and loads onto a custom trailer. Takes a bit more than 5 min to set up but not much more. Just time (a lot of it) and money (a lot of it). That's all we need. (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jun-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)
