(...) LOL! The video with the charging Strandbeest was funny! It reminded me of that battle scene in the movie Sparticus. That MOC is a good artistic representation of several soldiers running side-by-side with swords drawn. (19 years ago, 20-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic)

I am looking to trade all of my colored technic beams for black. Why, well I have a decent quantity of technic beams but they're so varied in color I can't build anything sizable. So far I have only gone through my sorted 1x16's but this could (...) (19 years ago, 18-Feb-06, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Great job! (URL) blade is the best part. It looks real yet would work. The slightly-bent joints that brace the plates on the side is an ingenius idea. This MOC should be added to the sidebar! (19 years ago, 17-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I would agree with leaving the tow truck together - and the dust should be easier to wipe off the studless beams! Looking at at the tractor set, my first impressions of it is that it has a very modern look. My first contact with Technic was (...) (19 years ago, 16-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) The fact that it only has one piston is not impressive but the truck itself is very impressive. However, if that one piston can lift a lego truck of the same scale then it is a good design. It is interesting that although TLC typically models (...) (19 years ago, 16-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

From what I've seen in the pics, the tow truck looks like it has only 1 pneumatic piston. That doesn't look very impressive. (19 years ago, 16-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

In order to build a new boom for a crane I am working on, I had to take apart this WWII plane MOC from 2001. It had numerous butchered parts but was still impressive to look at and worked reasonably well. I had to dust off 4-1/2 years of dust from (...) (19 years ago, 13-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I think what you need are two external arms, half the width of the door, top and bottom. Connect them from the door frame to a point half way along the door. This gives you four hinges. You then want to construct a mechanism that attaches to (...) (19 years ago, 13-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam, FTX)

There's a couple of downsides to multiple parts sheaves - first, it means at least twice as much string, and that can mean either larger spools or thinner string, which is much harder for small fingers to handle; and second, it's harder to (...)
