|
| | | Hi guys I was inspired by this flying island: (URL) ...to make one of my own. I haven't built it yet due to space constraints, but I do have a few ideas floating around. ;-) Then I got to thinking I might want to try an airship to go along with it. (...)

| | | | | (...) Wait... someone posted in .pirates? (Checks temperature of hell) (...) That's cool, I hadn't seen that before (...) I doubt you'd be able to get pirates sets from Lego in these dark times. If you're just after a few pieces you could try (URL), (...) (20 years ago, 14-Jul-04, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)

I'd recommend ebay, and keep your eye out for sets missing a few parts, without boxes and without instructions (which you can get on brickshelf). It's those little things that (...)

| | | | | | | | | (...) Ugh! I don't want to hear any more whining! No matter where it's posted! "I don't like the new colors!" "I want space Legends!" Sure, it'd be nice, but all I want to hear about is the latest mind-blowing MOC. Fans do better models than TLG (...) (20 years ago, 14-Jul-04, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | | | | | | (...) I think you missed Tom's point. I'm wondering why you felt the need to bash .space? In my experience, given that .space has many participants and .pirate has few, sometimes things can be difficult to hear/get buried. Given that: specific (...)

P.S.S. Here is an idea, however unhelpful: go with what those other (...) (20 years ago, 14-Jul-04, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.space, FTX)

I'm not bashing .space, I was simply referring to the tendancy for messages to get drowned out by the sheer volume of posts, and I thought I (...)

I'm not sure if they will be the "flying" type or the ordinary, "water" types, though :) If you're building the "flying" type, I wouldn't bother building hulls out of (...)
