(...) That's funny... my inspiration for this was from a magnetic-based ice skating rink that my father has on his LGB model railroad. It works basically the same way. I had to try to get the minifig's center-of-gravity towards the back of the (...) (20 years ago, 16-Feb-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Well, actually, my fiancee has been away in Finland for a month on business, so since we are 8 hours off, I kept her up-to-date with my work with little videos and photos. This is the first time in a really long time that I haven't had her (...) (20 years ago, 16-Feb-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Very nice work, Sean! I reeeeaaaalllly loved the 12 minute video clip. It was agonizing hilarious and familiar, remembering some of my recent building marathon periods preparing my latest creations (which I have yet to document online). I (...) (20 years ago, 16-Feb-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Hey Sean, This is way cool! The figs actually look to me like they're ice skating, which suggests an ice rink as a possible MOC. Perhaps the Brick Apple could use a Rockefeller Plaza creation? I'm curious, when a work like this is commissioned for (...) (20 years ago, 16-Feb-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Well, way too much -- but still not enough! :) In retrospect, there were a few things that I could have planned better to make it much less of a pain: For example, the paths of the minifigs cross each other.

Just make sure you won't get into TOO much trouble when you bust up. Seriously (...) (20 years ago, 16-Feb-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)
