   The footprint is 13' x 20".  That's the minimum platform space
   needed.  (Thus it might need a floor--the NELUG tables might not
   support it, given that it weighs around 200lb.)

   Oh!  Okay.  Now I'm with it.  Thanks for the pointer.

   Hmmm.  I might be able to build two, but that would be the
   most.  Any color standards I should bear in mind?  Preferences?
   Etc.?  (And, of course, ought I bring a squad, or are we using
   my Japanese sailors?)

   Susan?  If you're talking about my Susan, there's no way in Hell
   she'd come to BrikWars.  :)  She appreciates my obsession, but
   does not in any way wish to share it.

   I stay in Cambridge with my NLSO.  :)  I can theoretically set it
   up that night, depending on how much smacking around it takes in
   the process of moving.

   Will do.  The email LUGNET lists also works.  Are you in Boston
   proper?
