(...) Just don't shell them all the way through like an LDraw part - the whole peak and a good part of the surrounding area could eiter be solid ABS (or some kind of rib or enclosure structure) for strength. Send me the STL file and I'll run one on (...) (21 years ago, 28-Apr-05, to lugnet.parts, FTX)

I was looking thru a bunch of old 1950's macaroni bricks I purchased recently from a Danish collector. The macaroni bricks were first introduced in 1955. From 1955-57 they came in 4 different types, after 1957 only the type we know today continued (...) (21 years ago, 27-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts)

(...) Thanks! Yeap, there are a lot of us Michiganians. (...) After my post yesterday I got to thinking that I'd left the gothic arch system incomplete. So below I'll give you a 1x8x4 & a 1x5x5 half arch. The regular half arch, has that 1x2 plate (...) (21 years ago, 22-Apr-05, to lugnet.parts, FTX)

Also dont forget the standard Lego power connectors - they are a 2/3 2x2 brick. If you really wanted (already cringing at this) you could snip off the cable - and you have the brick. Danny -- (URL) - Build Robots (...) (21 years ago, 22-Apr-05, to lugnet.parts)

(...) Nice diagrams Jason (and fellow Michiganian)! I mentioned a 1x6x2 Gothic arch, but I guess it would be too narrow in the middle, a 1x6x3 arch makes much more sense. Maybe even a 1x5x5 half Gothic arch would be nice. One other thing about (...) (21 years ago, 22-Apr-05, to lugnet.parts, FTX)

(...) Sure (URL) actually a bit taller than 2/3 brick height, because of that funky rim on the top, but if you were to slice that whole end with the rim off it would be 1x1x2/3 (ignoring that stud on the side). Not a basic brick, but I have several (...) (21 years ago, 22-Apr-05, to lugnet.parts, FTX)

Curved Parts: (2 URLs) Gothic Arches: (2 URLs) Personally, I'm rather fond of the gothic arches, so I'd have to pick the 1x6x3 arch as (...)

(...) Good call! That wasn't quite what I was envisioning, but I guess it qualifies. For that matter, one might make a half-hearted case that the "Space Positioning Rockets" might sort of partially qualify, with the one-stud-plate overhang. (...)
