  EGAD! (pneumatics)
 
Does anyone know if these (URL) actually connect LEGO pneumatics with regular aquarium hoses? >> Mark (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: YAPNQ
 
(...) Know where I can find those adapters? That would certainly be helpful. (...) Yeah... there's only a handful of used ones left though. I'd like to find a place where I can get a ongoing supply of check valves. I have more than a few ideas that (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: YAPNQ
 
(...) Actually, I have used aquarium tubing and one way valves before. There is 'miniature' airline tubing for aquariums that I think fits with Lego pneumatics. It is much stiffer than the official silicone tubing though. But this miniature airline (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Toa Nuva Posters
 
(...) I find it more frustrating than funny, but that's because any time I mention stuff like this on MaskofDestiny, I get a bunch of e-mails from people telling me that I'm wrong. BTW, I'd love to see a closeup of your version of the Infected Miru (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, FTX)
 
  Re: Blacktronicle
 
(...) What's wrong with Bionicle? Those sets have some essential parts. (...) Indeed. <thumbs up> Allister (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Toa Nuva Posters
 
(...) Yes I agree, but make a neat way to display the masks anyway. (...) Oh, I know of the joke, found it funny that people always go nuts. I was just following what is on the Lego Bionicle Site itself. Joke or no it's listed in the little color (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, FTX)
 
  Re: YAPNQ
 
(...) Ah, nuts. I was hoping I might have a cheap source for lots of tubing, T connectors, and what I was *really* hoping for... those one-way valves that are only like $2 a piece. >> Mark (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Blacktronicle
 
(...) Because it's equally as Bionicle-ish. There's not a lot of love here for that theme, though I aim to change that. How? By doing stuff like this. :) (...) Can't help you there, unless you send me a Space Police lock up. Anways, I've done a (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Blacktronicle
 
(...) Heh. I figured there'd be a few people who fell in this category. The truth is, I believe it's possible to do just about anything with Bionicle. I've made a 24" oriental dragon, a dragonfly with an 18" wingspan, a purple gorilla, an Alien (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Blacktronicle
 
(...) Um, firstly, all of the Bionicle characters are measured in "Bio", which looks to be a direct conversion to the metric system. If it is, the actual Toa should be about the same size as standard minifigs,. If it's not, then, well, the Toa have (...)

  Re: Blacktronicle
 
(...) Yup. I only ever got the Invader, the Battrax, and whichever Space minifig set included a B1 minifig (fortunately for me, it included two black visors, since I'd crushed the one from my Invader by stepping on it *sniff*), so I was a bit peeved (...)

  Re: Toa Nuva Posters
 
(...) Nope. None for the Bohrok groups either. Probably not for the Rahkshi either. The big point of the Kanohi poster, as I see it, was to get kids interested in collecting all the Kanohi. That's pretty much a given now, and the little nudge is no (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, FTX)
 
  Re: YAPNQ
 
(...) No. It's a little too big. There is commercially available tubing that is compatible with LEGO pneumatics, but I cannot recal the name of it. Do a search through the newsgroups here (.technic and .robotics) and perhaps you'll find some info. (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Technic 9V motor comparison update
 
(...) Cool. I'll look forward to seeing that when you're done. I'm pretty much finished with the "first draft" building now. I just need to wire everything up and hit it with some juice. It will be interesting to see how it performs. I'll let y'all (...) (21 years ago, 13-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Technic 9V motor comparison update
 
Philippe Hurbain's utterance expressed in news:HGEzoD.DLD@lugnet.com: (...) the motor against the 71427. But now I don't need to :) I thought of using it with the RCX, but I can see it will be a quite limited performance. But the other way round (...)

  Re: 8454 Rescue Truck available from Shop@Home + 8455 Back-Hoe
 
Are items typically quick to come arrive in retail stores? I haven't seen any of the smaller ($20) Technic sets yet and they seem to have been available from S@H for a while. "Steve Moldovanu" <wolf_hunter_03@hotmail.com> wrote in message (...) (21 years ago, 13-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)

  Toa Nuva Posters
 
Hello All, I thought I'd share with you a few images of a bunch of posters I've been mish mashing together. These final sized, print at 20 X 30 and I'll mount the masks directly to the board. I took the design from the 2001 TRU mask poster. I don't (...) (21 years ago, 13-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)
 
  Re: Blacktronicle
 
(...) How could anyone hate something so BT-ish? Seriously, wonderful job of smooshing the two unlikely themes together. It's a pretty frightening visage, actually. Love to see one of them smashing thru a Space Police lock up. Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 13-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
