|
|
Soooo, the next model: a Dornier DO-228. I wanted to build an airplane, and the DO-228 is well suited to build a Lego model of: It has straight lines, not a 'round' fusilage etc. Also, I wanted to build something larger than a Pipercup or something (...)

Wow!! That is a fantastic model, it's a shame they're not produced anymore - I wonder if TLG would be capable of manufacturing parts which function the same way as the old ones did? If it were possible to obtain new parts that performed the same (...) (23 years ago, 2-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Hello pneumatics fans, I have been working a lot with pneumatics lately, and have made some interesting discoveries. I think the most notable is a method of using the old style red cylinders with the new pneumatics system. I came across this as I (...) (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

1. The Gold Kanohi- How did the Toa get them? According to Bionicle # 3, gold masks combine the energies of all 6 masks. But the Toa didn't have all of the regular masks before Bionicle #4- Tahu has no mask of levitation, for example. Were the gold (...) (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

Steve, I like the design you used to control the height of the blade. You may need to beef up the upper portion of the support of the gear rack. It will probably derail if you do not support both sides of the rack. Cool design all around. Very (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-02, to lugnet.technic)
