But if you're building things that aren't too big but too terribly small, there's the challenge. Coming up with ingenous ways to compensate for what you don't have. Sometimes just for fun I grab a few random pieces without looking from my collection (say ten maybe) and I try to build something out of the pieces I grabbed. This helps me learn new ways to use the pieces in my *real* creations because when you have a superlimited collection, you are constantly learning new ways to use pieces because maybe you don't have a part that goes with that piece traditionally so you have to find a way to incorporate or attach that piece without doing it the traditional way. This has definitely worked for me and taught me tons of new ways to use parts. > My collection: http://brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=28223 So Mladen, what are you not telling us here? What humongous 5 foot tall tower didn't make it into the photo by *accident* eh? What four or five mechs are sitting on your bed beside it eh? How much is under your bed? What is sitting *on* the dresser? Just kiddin'! BTW, did you get my e-mail about hosting prices? I really need the info soon. Thanks, -Geordan- > Mladen Pejic, over and out! > http://members.attcanada.ca/~milovan/index.htm > > > snippy
