They have 8 studs of binding surfaces on the underside, and are shaped in a way that tiling the surface (...) (22 years ago, 12-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Building this was a deliberate ploy (...) (22 years ago, 11-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

When that happens, it's best to just start building something, and Classic Space, even after a 20 year dark age, is still something I can almost do blindfolded. Cheers, (...)
