(...) That sounds a lot more like a gong than a bell. ;P The closest I can figure out is to put a 1x1 round brick, 1x1 cone, minifig head, or micro-motor pulley on top of the 2x2 radar dish, but that pretty much rules out using the chrome radar. (...) (20 years ago, 1-May-04, to lugnet.pirates)

It occured to me recently that, while Lego has given many ships a lovely compass, they've neglected one of the most symbolic pieces of a ship, which every [large] ship ought to have: the ship's bell. I'd like to hear you guys' ideas on how we might (...) (20 years ago, 1-May-04, to lugnet.pirates)
