(...) The baseplates are 10" each, so they would overhang by 2" on a 48" sheet. I have ply on the floor of my lego room. The major portion of my city is on the floor, with a shelf hung on the walls at about 48" high, with a opening for the door. (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.town)

Hi Brad! Glad you finally came to your senses <grin, duck, run> and realized the potential in the BV sets. I really don't think many of the Belville 'fans' that post here actually buy BV to work in a BV scale. (note - I said many, not all :) I don't (...)

How much city are you going to build? I decided last year that my town would be long and skinny. That way it could be parked out of the way atop a bookshelf. Talk about Main Street! For now, I am trying to keep baseplates separable. One of my ideas (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.town)

I think that LEGO's point is to reduce the piece count to make it easier for children to put together. Actually, I have a love/hate relationship with the juniorized pieces. On the one hand, they do reduce the complexity (bad), but on the other hand, (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.town)
