| | | | | (...) Dude I love it! I wanna make a little probish grabby space thing now. And can anyone point out where that half cylinder has ever been used in a posted MOC before in that configuration? I'm thinkin' no. Awesome. (URL) [ j o n ] (URL) zemi.net> (...)

| | | | | | (...) Hey, thanks! I've had that idea floating around for a while and I've made some unpublished MOCs using it, but for this idea I thought it would work well and used it. It can be a neat piece if used right. Yeah, little probish grabby space (...) (20 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) Thanks. I've always wanted to make a space tug for a while, and even though this is too small to be a dedicated space tug I think it fits neatly into the 'shipyard assistance' idea.

NO fricking fair is what I think. you're only fourteen and building better than i do now. no fricking fair. the good side is, that im close enough geographically to actually be able to see this thing. my next big ship might need something like (...)

| | | | | | | Re: Small moc- the SHRIMP —John Henry Kruer
|
| | | | | | (...) I might try adding one later today- although my image display script doesn't like having new stuff added. I'll figure it out, though. But its not very roomy. Barely enough space for the pilot to lay down on his stomach and manipulate the two (...) (20 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | | (...) That seems like it's the way it should be. You would expect a craft like this to be bare-bones, it's not like it's a long-range craft or anything. It's not as if crane or forklift cabs are luxurious either. -Dan Rubin (20 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.space)

|
| | | | | (...) Nice work, John! I would prefer a version with a couple of 1x4 hazard tiles on top, though, just to liven it up a bit. Other than that I don't think I'd change a thing. Except the tiles in the hatch underside in the last image need (...) (20 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | | | Re: Small moc- the SHRIMP —John Henry Kruer

| | | | | | (...) Yeah, the tiles probably do need straightening- I always chide myself for having unaligned tiles and small gaps and stuff overlooked in my hurry to photograph. I thought about adding a danger tile, but I only have one and there wasn't any (...) (20 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
