James Jesiman Memorial Park, and the watertower behind it. (URL) my Colonial (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.build)
 
  RE: Building habits
 
(...) I agree, although I usually try to put that phase off as long as possible now that I have a digital camera.

(...) yes, it would... Once the base database is larger, I could interface it with the public set lists from lugnet (why keep the data twice?), and you'd be able to type in your member number, and total up your pieces... or even do a limited search, (...)
