First of all: yes, I totally agree! It's great not to be alone.... I own some early technic sets from when I was 10-14 and some I bought last year. Because the removal company (Maguire in Bray, Ireland, beware!) was particularly careless I lost a (...) (25 years ago, 29-Oct-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I don't have time to comment on much of your post now, but I just wanted to comment shortly on this passage. I've found the new style Technic parts to be hugely more versatile than the old ones, i.e. the ones we saw up until the middle of the (...) (25 years ago, 29-Oct-00, to lugnet.technic)
