Here I present Billy Bob, with his 3002 BricksWagon™ Scarab outfitted for
crystal prospecting:

When Billy Bob received his
inheritance, he decided to use it to move to New Seattle and try his hand at
some prospecting. He purchased the stylish and economical Scarab, and has
had good fortune in mining in the past year.
I’ve finally gotten around to
using those curvy windshields that have been gathering sawdust. I like the
way they look, but they sure aren’t the easiest parts to use if you want a
canopy that opens up. I did this ship a couple of weeks ago, and it was my
first experience with the frustration of using these things. I’ve done a
couple more ships using these parts since then, and I’m still annoyed at the
design of this part. Anyway, I’ll post the others as soon as I can- though it
will likely be after BrickFest PDX.

Well done Tony. It’s so buggy (in a good way) that I almost swatted it ;-) That
cargo bay is ingenious. Way to solve that canopy ‘problem’. Great details, play
value and a refreshing colour scheme.
Peace and bugs,
Professor Whateverly

| (...) Good thing you didn't swat it- it isn't the sturdiest thing I've ever built! And as for the canopy, you got it under control too. Your hinging mechanism is similar to what I used on a racer that I hope to post soon. (2 URLs) AndroDan>> Tony (...) (20 years ago, 11-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
