(...) you see, all the different renditions is what i find so interesting, the very point of this project! i think sometimes people look at something amazing like jassim's Dragonstar, and think he just built it. i imagine that he must have worked (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Yep, but to get the joint strength, you'll need to re-inforce the sides of the cylinder brick. Solution: switch to an r2-d2 body instead like so: (2 URLs) This way, not only do you have your joint, but you have SNOT wherever you need it. It's (...)

(...) Jeff, that's pretty cool. I wonder what would happen if you put a 2x2 cylinder brick: [LDrawPart 3941:15] inside of a couple 1x4x1 arches: [LDrawPart 3659:15:2] Is that possible with some SNOT to hold the arches together? --Todd (21 years ago, 5-Jun-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) We used that standard at NWBrickCon and it worked great. The example picture he gaved essentially used a 8-stud grid that has track lying along borders between bases. But that particular example aimed to keep most straight lines on the 16-stud (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jun-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.space)

(...) -I was wondering about that ship too, and especially the 'U.S.S. Preview' :). The Explorien 'Tub' is also very cool. Paul does some great work. I guess we'll just have to wait for more pics. You here that Paul? More pics, damn it! -Keith (21 years ago, 5-Jun-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) At NW BrickCon we had monorail track at +0, +10, and +20 (and even a small amount at +30 I think). +20 was necessary to clear most modules since it turns out it's easiest to just run the track whereever. However, if a station is actually built (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jun-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.space)
