| (...) Kevin, First, I want to say its good to see you back and building. Then, I wanted to say I like your inchworm 3; only to see you posted an inchworm 4, and followed it up with Octomedius and something called Bovinius Minimus. I like them all, (...)

| (...) Thanks to Janey, I also got the bulldozer. MAN, its so cool. I think i might use my Dec 26 day off to play with it. Hey, janey, if you come by again soon, we could build them together and try a speed build. :) Chris (17 years ago, 26-Dec-07, to lugnet.technic)

| (...) I've decided to jack in building for tonight as it's getting late and I was starting to make mistakes. I finished book 2 and made a small start on three. I think I've done myself a mischief though as I now have a strange pain in my side, (...) (17 years ago, 26-Dec-07, to lugnet.technic)

| I was playing with pneumatic piston and switch linkages trying to improve on the geometries I've developed in the past. This lead to inchworm 4.

| So I got the technic Motorized Bulldozer 8275 for Christmas. Haven't finished yet but I have started instruction book 2, so I can't say too much about it yet, but the new tracks look pretty sturdy. Anyone else get Technic for Chrimbo? (17 years ago, 25-Dec-07, to lugnet.technic)
