(...) [snip] (...) Hi Stephane, Several sets use this technique on the winch, you can wind up without unlatching, but you must un-latch to un-wind. It's just another way of making sure the winch doesn't unwind when you let go! Two sets I've seen (...) (22 years ago, 24-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic)

It is nice to see, that with LEGO you can make a sportscar in any scale you want. It looks like your car has the same features as my GTcar.. (I saw in the topic of the 'unknown instruction book' you already noticed it. ;)) I think the result of your (...) (22 years ago, 23-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Thanks (...) I think there is a place behind the engine, in the trunk, but I'm not sure. I just figured it out today... and I've got no motors. Luis (comments, instructions, death threats, etc. please remove all the X's) (22 years ago, 23-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Now that I would like to see! Twirp is a wonderful little creation. There are a few details as to its construction that I was not able to determine. If you get some time, posting the instructions would be nice. Steven (22 years ago, 23-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic)

Hi all, I just built my 8854 power crane. Bought it used, although all the parts were perfect. Now, of course I'm gonna compare it to 8431 since it's the first technic crane I ever built. If you build it properly, 8431's winch is extremely smooth, (...) (22 years ago, 23-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic)

Very nice car. Since it's small, it must be pretty fast when motorized. Is there a place to add a motor? Or it's already there and I haven't noticed it? (22 years ago, 23-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic)

Well, my little sports car has reached a "leave it that way, I'm happy enough with it" status... sorry if the car is too ugly... I don't have enough pieces (just 1000 in total) As promised some months ago, it's only 9 studs longer and 4 studs wider (...) (22 years ago, 22-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.announce.moc) !

(...) Thanks. I actually hadn't heard the origami term before I read your post, but I understand what you mean. While I was building, I was just trying to make it as small as possible, but the design ended up having a personality of its own. -jrl (22 years ago, 22-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic)
