(...) No problem, as for parts modding. I'm well down that slope. I've been known to cut a brick or plate to get a needed smaller version, I.E. a 1x1 brick in dark orange, and making custom 9v train track. My first mod was drilling holes to wire up (...)

(...) You probably dont' even need jumper plates, as the 1x3 roof bricks can just be placed at 1/2 stuf offset on standard placed studs. ROSCO (20 years ago, 7-Mar-06, to lugnet.parts.custom, FTX)

(...) I apologize for leading this thread into yet another width debate; I was kidding around, but there is a portion of seriousness there that may merit consideration.

(...) While a response is appreciated, I was looking for feedback on part ideas, not dogma regarding how wide I build my trains. 8) I am considering have custom parts made, or at least some prototypes. Mat (20 years ago, 7-Mar-06, to lugnet.parts.custom, FTX)

I really like the newer element, (2 URLs) But it'ts difficault to use in a 6wide train roof if you want roof detail. So I was doodling with a view other part ideas. And I wanted to get some feedback. (URL) And of course these could be made in parts (...) (20 years ago, 7-Mar-06, to lugnet.parts.custom, lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) You jokestah! Well, just in case you are serious: Nothing for the airpacks, but I was fortunate - my first couple of space sets had torso stickers rather than printing, so I just peeled the stickers off and - hey presto - plain torsos!!

(...) Excellent idea Richie. I plan on opening my MISB 6702 and modding all the helmets in there. Do you by any chance have a mod to do something useful with the original airpacks and classic space torsos? Tim (20 years ago, 24-Feb-06, to lugnet.parts.mod, FTX)
