Geeze... all this because I mentioned popsicle sticks and rubber bands???
Actually, I've never had occasion to use a popsicle stick in any model, I was
just trying to make a point. I have used rubber bands, though... and I have
used pens or pencils for models that are intended to draw something on paper
("intended" being the operative word, more times than not... <sheepish grin>)
Hmmm.... now that I think of it, what would be involved in making a unit that
used an inkjet cartridge to draw with...? (ponder, ponder, ponder...)
Anyways... "am I mad?" as Linc put it? Well, perhaps. In all honesty though,
the *only* reason that I don't bother with Megablox is that they don't have any
Technic-like pieces. (I'm such a heathen... I know. :)

| "Excusatio non petita, acusatio manifesta" (A not requested 'sorry' is like a true 'my fault'). We are not speaking about use pecils (in a Lego structure) or cartridge (in another Lego structure). This is much more religious stuff than that. Join (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
