| (...) I have two things to say: 1. hold on to all of your lego, you will regret it if you don't. You will hit an age when you don't feel 'embarrassed' about it. 2. best of luck Jonathan (25 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.space, lugnet.basic, lugnet.technic, lugnet.town, lugnet.underground, lugnet.western)

| (...) Sure! Sell me your stuff cheap (it has no REAL value to you anyhow :o) and then in 5 to 10 years lament the loss of all that lost ABS. Seriously, I am now 27 and lost my LEGO interest at about age 15 (at least in public) and only built one (...)

| Hi Sergio, Maybe you're going through dark ages... maybe it's just a "dim" age, though. Or perhaps you have a builder's block. I personally slightly lost interest in lego for awhile (around 14-15), but sparked the interest again actually when we (...)

| Hi Lugnet users, I am moving next week and like Lego fans always do, they pack up their Lego. I am 15 years old and I have been actively collecting Lego since December 1996 up to now. But, I haven't even looked inside my cabinet since this summer, (...)

| | | | | Re: Second Hand (Re: Original Clock Design)
|
| Yep, I see what you mean. You're already pushing the limits without the extra friction of th second hand. Also, attaching a hand to one end of the diff block wouldn't be trivial... And I think I may have got the spelling on Jennifer's name wrong ... (...) (25 years ago, 13-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)
| | | | | Second Hand (Re: Original Clock Design)
|
| I was thinking the same thing when I saw Issac Merkle's two-axles through a turntable. The second hand would have to be run off of the differential cage, because the minutes would be hard to sync since they would be advanced depending on what hour (...)

| | | | | Re: Pneumatic pressure measuring devices
|
| First we need to know the pressure range normally encountered in LEGO pneumatics. The hand pump ...measure the piston diameter and get the area. Then measure the force on the pump when adequate pressure has been reached. Then calculate pounds per (...) (25 years ago, 13-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)
| | | | | Re: Axle joiner angles
|
| (...) Yes. (...) No. There are 16 splines, and the axle joiners come in increments of 360/16=22.5 degrees. (...) If you mean the single angle beam ((URL) angle is related to a 3/4/5 triangle, so that the longer side becomes the 5-side of the (...) (25 years ago, 13-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
| | | | | Re: Original Clock Design
|
| That looks great, Amnon! You may also be able to get a second hand, using the "diff thru the large turntable" technique. Check out Jennifer Clarke's excavator for the details. Might look a bit cludgy, though... (URL) Silverstein <amnon@best.com> (...) (25 years ago, 13-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)

| After the November 6th "Workshop 3D LEGO RCX Challenge" in Seattle, Gus Jansson and I decided it was time to start a LEGO Robot specific group in this area. Well, it's about a month later, and we're through talking, time for some action! So this is (...)
