| Well, since the pool works in a vacuum, the water must be contantly boiling out into space, and with an astonishingly fast rate too. You've modelled this effect nicly with the studs on the trans dark blue plates :-) With friendly greetings, M. (...) (21 years ago, 21-Mar-04, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

Cartoon physics applies, so the water doesn't boil away, exposed skin isn't desicated (though I did originally plan to have (...)

For this NBLTC display I just used a single layer of plates of various colours under them: (URL) photograph seems to have picked up the underlying colours a bit too clearly. In reality, you can (...)

And if located on the edge of a display, it can result in a self-replenishing "foam" effect, courtesy of jealous (...)

Bricksland Free S&H (the store I bought mine from) currently has 7613 of them in stock, and there aren't any sets that come with more than two of them (best value is the SW mini MF). (...)

This is clearly evident from how the swimmer is fully suspended, even though he hardly breaks the surface. If you (...)
