      (...) Don't forget to download the speaker's notes, they add a lot. Very nice work, TJ! (21 years ago, 14-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)
     
          Re: Brickfest '03 Presentation: "Building Big" —Thomas Avery
      (...) Thanks, Lar. Yes, the notes delayed my release of this presentation. I had not written them prior to Brickfest but should have. When writing them, I realized I had forgotten to say many things I'd meant to during the presentation. Thanks, TJ (21 years ago, 14-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)
    
         Re: Brickfest '03 Presentation: "Building Big" —Thomas Avery
     (...) You're welcome! I'm glad you liked it. I hope it gives some inspiration to fellow builders, not just in the Technic area, but other themes as well. TJ (21 years ago, 14-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)

     (...) I like the idea of giving presentations on modelshows. This is unknown in Holland. I don't now if people will give 'PowerPoint' presentations during LEGOWORLD this month, actually I don't think so when the visitors mostly are parents with (...)

         Re: Brickfest '03 Presentation: "Building Big" —Thomas Avery
     (...) If you can have a period of time at your shows where the model builders are by themselves (no public), then it makes a lot of sense to give presentations and seminars. I attended many other presentations at Brickfest and really enjoyed them. I (...) (21 years ago, 14-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
   
        Re: Brickfest '03 Presentation: "Building Big" —Beat Felber
     Hi TJ It definitely was worth to wait! Thanks for this great piece of work. I really enjoyed studying it - not only because my Mountaineer is featured. By watching the pictures and reading your notes your profession becomes obvious. I do agree with (...) (21 years ago, 14-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)
    
         Re: Brickfest '03 Presentation: "Building Big" —Thomas Avery
     (...) Thanks again for letting me feature your new creation. It was quite a surprize to the crowd when they first saw it. I thought it was a great slide to show at the beginning so that the audience would understand what I considered "building big". (...) (21 years ago, 14-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)

         Re: Brickfest '03 Presentation: "Building Big" —Thomas Avery
     (...) Thanks! I appreciate the comments. I had to put in Big Muskie as an example of inspiration for building big ;-) A LEGO model of that would be tremendous! :-) -TJ (21 years ago, 15-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)

        Re: Brickfest '03 Presentation: "Building Big" —Damien Guichard
     (...) The best lego building tutorial i ever read. Nice building tricks, many are equally useful in smaller models. When you build you have to wrap bricks around space, and this tutorial simply explains how to do that. A masterpiece of lego (...) (21 years ago, 16-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)
    
         Re: Brickfest '03 Presentation: "Building Big" —Thomas Avery
     (...) Thanks! (...) That's a good way to describe it. Many large structures are just that- mostly space inside. "Wrapping bricks" is a term I'll have to remember! (...) Thanks again! -TJ (21 years ago, 16-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)

     (...) TJ, you'll be glad to kow HP is back in the calculator business with they new and improved HP49. The supplier of the Saturn CPU end-of-lifed it, so HP did a very smart thing. They wrote an emulator for the ARM and then moved all the code they (...) (21 years ago, 16-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.build, lugnet.events.brickfest)
