(...) Aha, well, that looks very nice. Ross' approach was always assuming non-modification, using the RCX and available sensors. He might even use our new NXT if it helps him any over using the RCX. I don't pretend to understand all of this, but (...) (17 years ago, 23-May-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Tim, I was just drooling over a Kubota mini-digger the other day. Walking the girlfriend to work, and there was this little digger parked by the park... I want one. Not a Lego one, a real one. I'd build sand castles and stuff. Highlighted with (...) (17 years ago, 22-May-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) I am really liking this 5 wide van. I just love to look of the dk gray headlight bricks on their backs with the bleu-cheese slopes on them. It creates a cool grill look. Very nice. Best, Jonathan (17 years ago, 21-May-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) This one is just too cute! I like how you used the screwdrivers to represent the hydraulics that move the digger arm. The shaft and handle makes a nice representation and seems to fit in scale very nicely. This is a much better use of a (...) (17 years ago, 21-May-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) It sounds like a simple thing, but doing it is another thing entirely. Our solution at the NMRA wasn't ideal by any metric, and our ping-ponging effect at our last show was even more of a bust (different solution). Ross will be working on (...) (17 years ago, 21-May-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Thanks, John. Yes, I had the ping-pong scenario in mind for the surface trolley (at least) and was going to check out how you and Ross did it at NMRA. As for the subway, hmmm, we'll talk more the Detroit. The wheels are turning in my head. (...) (17 years ago, 21-May-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)
