FUT: lugnet.technic (...) There's a lot of talk and little workshop here. I know nothing about gear streangth, I have never broken a gear - unitl today.

(...) William, you are of couse completely right that it shoud be a graphic. Now Prince's squiggle is a strange & useless contorted device. Therefore we should of course use a silouette of more or less any piece of bionicle :) Steve (23 years ago, 5-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

If you would just put your bricks in the kitchen oven you would make rapid progress with this question. Better yet, obtain a laboratory hot plate with fine temperature control and put a brick between two slides with a weight on top. Do this at (...) (23 years ago, 5-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)
