     (...) Well, The axles don't have to range freely across the board, so if you're willing to GLUE them to axle connectors, you could make them any length you want, but the range would be limited by the longest axle. (12 LU I think) But how are you (...) (24 years ago, 5-Oct-00, to lugnet.sports, lugnet.build, lugnet.gaming)

      (...) any case, nice work!!! (...) LOL! I guess you've shown that it wouldn't be necessary. Cool! (Notwithstanding, I wouldn't mind drilling Timmies and Jar-Jars.) --Todd (24 years ago, 5-Oct-00, to lugnet.sports, lugnet.build, lugnet.gaming)

           Re: LEGO Foosball table —Alex Farlie
       (...) Not me, but avery good suggestion. Does the RCX have enough outputs? I assume by a football table you mean the ones with the players on bars across it that rotate or slide across laterally? Of course if you were designing a robot to play in (...)
