  Re: Challenge: Technic Model of the Month!
 
(...) Great idea Tobbe! A couple of questions / clarifications: 1. 100% pure lego is quite a restriction. The problems I'd have with that is string, rubber bands, and possibly weights and stickers (though I've never used stickers yet). Are such (...) (23 years ago, 14-Feb-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Thanks! (...) Sounds like someone wants to enter with a crane of some sort .) This is something I did look by, let's see. String should be OK as long as it's not used to tie the pieces togheter, e.g. string from a spool to a crane hook for (...) (23 years ago, 15-Feb-02, to lugnet.technic)
