 | | Hover Sleds
|
| My girlfriend found a Bionicle mask on the floor where she works, so she stuffed it in her pocket and brought it home for me. I sat looking at it for a while, trying to figure out what to do with it, when I remembered all of the cool hover cars I'd (...) (22 years ago, 29-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Hey, great stuff! I like the shape of the whole thing in general. Someone remind me again where those huge white 1/4 dome pieces come from? I think you nailed the overall shape right on the head. It looks exactly like something NASA would (...) (22 years ago, 29-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

|
| So, we've purchased our cool new servers, from Cambridge, MA vendor "PCs for Everyone". Todd and I and several other friends have gotten systems from them before, and have been extremely pleased -- they know their stuff, including Linux, which is (...)

I'll echo Lenny though and say if you could get slightly larger pics that would allow us all to see the details even better. (Not (...) (22 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
| | |  | | Re: First Permanent Settlement on Mars!!!
|
| (...) John, Wow, this eerily echoes what I wanted to build for a Mars mission, the winged shuttles, the pressure building for a base, the lander, the vehicles. I would love to see more, clear and lighter. I'd love to know how you made the big dome, (...) (22 years ago, 27-Feb-04, to lugnet.space)

If I remember correctly, I read something about the episode I design philosophy that stated something along the lines that technological evolution in the starwars universe has been at a plateau for several hundred/thousand years??

| (...) Thanks to Lenny and others who have answered some questions on this. Within the next week I plan on updating all the broken images on the moonbase site and adding some of the new standards we've put together. I'll also make a quick recap post (...)

| (...) From what I remember, the two huge modules had monorail, train and racer track built in and the rest of the track was built up over the days after most of the moonbase modules had been setup. Some stantions were literally stuck on top of (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.space)

I haven't spotted him before. But then maybe I've slept (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| Sometimes it takes a while to notice things. I hope that this problem affects others too. But, being slow on the uptake can be interesting. Like when I saw Graviton's Brickshelf gallery, nice ship by the way, and the guy on the right caught my eye. (...) (22 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.space)
| | |  | | Re: Moonbase at Brickfest... how was it planned?
