(...) Thanks Tim. I'm sure I've seen pneumatic hoses used in a similar way before, but I can't think where. I've seen so many great building ideas in the past year it's impossible to keep track of them all. Isn't Lugnet great? :) Cheers, Allister (21 years ago, 25-Jun-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.au, FTX)

Hi all, We've had a builder in over the last few weeks renovating our house. He did a fantastic job working around our crooked old house, and I knew he has a five y.o. son, so as a bonus 'payment' I made a version of his ute and trailer (complete (...)

Duane Hess has a nifty vault-style door here: (URL) scale-up of this might be the way to go. A few other spacers have come up with similar doors (sorry, no links), so poking around on Brickshelf should help too. Take care, Soren (21 years ago, 24-Jun-03, to lugnet.town)

Ladder 9-2 is that way cause the Fire Hall (#9) has 2 ladder trucks so obviously there can't be 2 Ladder 9's so, its ladder 9-1 & 9-2... Josh (9-1 is started) (21 years ago, 21-Jun-03, to lugnet.town)
