Let me propose a set of commandments for "Lego Good Style Construction"
(blames and riots are allowed):
1.- "You should love your Lego's in the same way you Love your life"
2.- "Any damage to a Lego part is completely forbidden. The home-brew
sensors will be buildd using MEGA BLOCKS bricks"
3.- All constructions must be build with Lego bricks at least in a 95% of
the componets. The main structure has to be 100% Lego.
4.- Mega Blocks are allowed only for furnishing and allways that non Lego
parts will be available.
5.- Rubber bands have to be Lego or Lego-like rubber bands.
6.- The use of glue to keep parts together has to be avoided. Other
technical solutions should be selected. This will prevent the damage of any
Lego part.
7.- Canibalize parts from different sets is a "bad-manners" policy. This
will be done always that the Legos sets will be returned at their original
status.
