Hi;

After six months of working on and off (mostly off) I am
now finished with the next version of my Technic site.
Well-pretty much finished. Not only has it been redesigned
but completely re-researched and reorganized. If my last
version was my Fountainhead, I'd like to think that this is
my Atlas Shrugged (although maybe w/o the long speech!).

The site has the beginnings of my Technic history, a fairly
complete set index and a part of a new, reorganized element
registry. There is much more information and I have tried
to integrate the sections more than in v2.

Your comments would be appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks Jim for providing such a valuable resource. I have to say I like the v2 site better for the big pictures of multiple parts. However, I did notice that half beams/lift arms parts were moved out of the plates category, which would be correct. I (...) (25 years ago, 9-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)

Please tell me you are going to get pictures for more of the technic elements (for example, the technic seat, the flexable axles, the forklift forks etc etc up in the near future -- Jonathan Wilson wilsonj@xoommail.com (URL) (25 years ago, 9-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)

I don't think the nine hole one bend rounded end beams have a 112.5° angle, I think the angle is 143.13°. See, eg., (URL) the angle connector #3 isn't 134.5°, but 157.5°. Further, there is a new angle connector #4 (eg. in 8446 in green) which is (...) (25 years ago, 9-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)

It looks great!!! I like the new conveniently layout and also the scans of old pieces. Eelco Kooiker (URL) (25 years ago, 9-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)
  Re: Technica v3
 
Jim, You site is beautiful. The layout is clean and and well designed. You need to check some of your image tags though. There were two broken on the Beams w/ Brackets page. Not sure about anywhere else. Question: I noticed that you have parts (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)

Looks great. Thank you for making this! The one thing that's missing from the element registry (from a design standpoint, not an actual element) is a way to navigate from one page to the others without going back. There should be next/previous (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)

Some more comments on the page: The small shock absorbers now (since 1998, eg. 8417) come in two versions. The older, softer version, and the newer, harder version. The newer version can be identified by the smaller number of coil windings in the (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)
