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 (...)   (20 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!    (20 years ago, 17-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic)

(...) 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 (...)   (20 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.    (20 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 (...)   (20 years ago, 13-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic)
