| | | Currently, I am trying to find some Horse=related sets in LUGNET Marketplace. But, this post is not about that. Rather, I have a plan with those sets. I'm thinking of assembling the sets (or any open, loose, complete ones I can find) into a (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | I have a couple of potential ideas. I'm assuming that it is ok to "modify" the table top, but you'd prefer not to mess up the LEGO sets. If you have a large flat piece (like a base plate with a building, trees, or horses), then you can put screws in (...) (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | (...) A 1x1 round plate will fit in a 1/4" diameter hole nicely. This will allow trees and flowers to be placed on the board in various places for a more natural look. Just drill holes where you want to place your items. You could also use peg (...) (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.town)

| | | | | I have thought about the possibility of building such a table. Being an ex-model railroader myself, I would probably build the landscape out of plaster-coated mesh (adding paint and grass afterwards). I thought it would be a good idea to embed green (...)

Then, take a 2x4 plate, and attach it on top of the 1x6 (...) (25 years ago, 11-Mar-00, to lugnet.town)

My experence in gluing came from attaching _heavy_ bridges to my bookshelves, and I didn't want them to move...so, I glued a 1x8 to the top of my bookshelves, and then attached the bridge to that.
