I still like my fire hydrants better. Who ever heard of a rectangular fire hydrant? Round is the way to go. Well, I guess it really doesn't matter since I don't even have a Fire Department yet. In the event of a fire, sour grapes. On another note, I (...) (25 years ago, 23-Oct-99, to lugnet.town)

(...) I would say the 1x1 round goes on only three sides, hydrants usually only have three connections. See Jeff C's page for an alternate hydrant design: (URL) Foster (URL) (25 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.town)

I came up with my own makeshift fire hydrants last night. Here's my way of doing it - Take a 1x2 plate (the one with only one stud on top, in the center) and place a 1x1 plate on top of it. Then place a 1x1 cylinder and top it off with a 1x1 dot (or (...) (25 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.town)
