(...) Oh yes, I meant to point that out. I intentionally cut the board size/complexity in half, for a couple of reasons (beyond the obvious one of 1x1 plates being a bit too big for minifig-scale checkers!). First, it seems to me that objects in (...) (19 years ago, 20-May-05, to lugnet.build.vignette, lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) A Chevy Corvair would indeed be nice. It has a very uncluttered and sleek look, but I'm not sure whether I could get a LEGO version to look sleek enough. I used to have an F-4 Phantom, a US Navy F-4S. I demolished it about five years ago in (...) (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.town)
