Hi all, I know I sort of disappeared there for a while. I was out of town for a week. I guess I should have left a note or something ;^) Anyhoo, on the 23rd I went to Wayne Hussey's house to help him work on his latest mega-spaceship. Allow me to (...) (24 years ago, 1-Jan-01, to lugnet.space) !

(...) Wayne, this red rocketship is stunning. Does she have a name yet? Any other info on her would be greatly appreciated... such as... width of base, diameter of widest section of main body, approximate weight (are you going to be able to move it (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.space)

(...) Label me "Surprised" :-] I have tentatively named it "V-6" as in V-2 from the 40's, but bigger. The diameter of the hull at the widest is 40 studs. All of the hull is 2 studs thick. So far, excluding the deck design, there are only regular (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.space)
