(...) I'm out of my league here - SNOT is very not me and neither are trains :), but I figured this was too good to pass up. I don't know if Mike can do it, but I just did it in 2 2/3 bricks and 4 studs wide, opening sideways :) Here's the pics to (...)

(...) Indeed you did. But (and you're probably going to hate me for hurting your brain like this), can you make it open...sideways? (21 years ago, 21-Apr-04, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.space, lugnet.town)

Aha! I had an epiphany. When I posted this hack: (URL) question was raised if it could be done so the door opens up. The height is identical to the original. 3 bricks high. The first picture is a little fuzzy but the second has the guts of it any (...) (21 years ago, 21-Apr-04, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.space, lugnet.town)

(...) Hey, Ley, thanks for the response! Shopping carts? Well, I never thought about that. But yeah, thanks for the comment on color. I guess I'll try adding some in my next utilitarian MOC, although I was kinda going for a clean boring grey look. (...) (21 years ago, 21-Apr-04, to lugnet.space)

Kenn, I've studied the Oakland... I can't decide what the most exciting thing about it is. It's either your great creativity on display, or it's the fact you've proven space rocks so much it can use Pirate theme pieces without skippin a beat! Space (...) (21 years ago, 21-Apr-04, to lugnet.space)

(...) Well, JHK, this is a fun little utility craft. (It [must] still be fun, else Stinky would have upgraded by now, right?) Like the others, I like the asymmetry and the overall utilitarian feel, but also like the others, I think it could use a (...) (21 years ago, 20-Apr-04, to lugnet.space)
