One way to increase the friction on a single plate motion (like a swing-wing aircraft for example) is to use 2 of them...one on top and one on bottom with the plate sandwiched between. Surround the turntable on the bottom surface with tiles and the (...) (22 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.space)

It's funny you mention that because this is actually a narrower version of a much larger box that I just couldn't get to look right. In this case I wanted the ship to look like an oversized traditional brick :-) Thanks for the reply! (...) (22 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.space)

Grand Admiral, Hmm...I was referring to the sliding door format itself. After looking at hundreds of pictures of hundreds of models over the past two years it's hard to recall exactly where I got that idea from...but I wanted to give credit where (...) (22 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.space)

My latest MOC. Its inspired by the GI JOE vehicle of the same name. Except the driver in this case is not as good looking. The Wolverine is designed as mainly an anti-armour vehicle. The missles are guided which makes up for the lack of movement in (...) (22 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.space) !

I haven't tried this with Lego, so don't sue me if it doesn't work. But, you can add friction to moving parts of other materials by adding a tiny drop of cyanoacrylate (super) glue to the joint, and then working the parts until the glue dries. This (...) (22 years ago, 14-May-03, to lugnet.space)

is there a way to give a turn-table a little more friction - or even a friction turntable? I like using them, but they swing every which way every time you pick them up - i don't like it. thanks in advance -vive le krakhed (22 years ago, 14-May-03, to lugnet.space)
