(...) I'd say that's a really good start. Many of the modules I've seen have places where the balls get stuck. Considering the number of balls running through the contraption, it's not really a big deal. Steve (20 years ago, 27-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic)

All you need to do now is figure out how to stop those balls from collecting in the two places they do in the video and you're all set! ;) Good luck with it! Cheers ... Geoffrey Hyde "Gustavo Brinck" <gustav@mi.cl> wrote in message (...) (20 years ago, 26-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic)

I forget; did you say you were going to try to make a rotary engine out of legos? I assume it has a rotary engine because the RX-7 had dual rotors. You might have already answered that question in a previous email, but I can't find it. (20 years ago, 25-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I think there's a couple of reasons.

Visoraks are out already in the UK, with no sign of the Toa Hordika, which I find a bit surprising given they came out before xmas in the USA. Does anyone know why? Are they being skipped here? Maybe they will be released in the fall, when (...) (20 years ago, 24-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

I am not sure exactly how many pieces are in this model. I know that there were about 2000 before I detailed the engine. Each valve cover consists of 36 pieces. I added about 150 pieces to the engine. While it may not be exactly 2500, the count is (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.technic)
