(...) I have one "screw" axle from my <set:8851> set. I think it's #8, but I'm not sure - I'll have to check once I get home. What are the lengths & quantities of this kind of axle in the <set:8094> and <set:8862> sets? I'd like to build them some (...) (25 years ago, 25-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Oh okay; yeah, that piece could have some interesting applications since it seems that it can be connected easily to an axle. I think it's used as a crank handle on this model though... (...) Yeah I know what you mean; the old turntable is (...) (25 years ago, 25-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Yeah...this set comes with TONS of various generic pegs. I'm not sure of the exact numbers, but there are 70+ friction pegs, 20 or so extended friction pegs (the ones that can go through 3 holes) and about 12 (I think?) of the "bushing pegs" (...) (25 years ago, 25-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)

It certainly does!! It's fairly rare, 8094 is the only set I know of that came with this pen - maybe other sets have had it since, but I haven't seen any which have a plotter in it. -- Cheers ... Geoffrey Hyde Gaurav Thakur <cp5670@supermail.com> (...) (25 years ago, 24-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)

Just had a question about this set; the pen-plotter model, which draws lines on a piece of paper, seems to include a pen with the word "Technic" marked on the side. Does this set actually come with this pen? Thanks, -Gaurav (25 years ago, 24-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I dont think its a case of main and alternate, they are just 2 models that can be made from the same set. Its like the 8448 with the convertable and the gull wing doors mode. (25 years ago, 24-Dec-00, to lugnet.technic)
