| | Broken Monorail Motor
|
|
Has anyone managed to take a monorail motor apart? I just received an auction lot which included a non-functioning motor (actually, the motor runs but something's wrong in the gearbox). FUT: lugnet.trains (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.space, lugnet.town)

(...) It's possible you needed to do a 'parts scan' in MLCAD, to see all the available parts. (...) Did you get a new version of MLCAD, or change any of the settings? It's been pointed out to me that some of the gears don't render well in MLCAD. I (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)

I have posted an animation that I made of a little switcher engine being built piece by piece. There are two versions, once 640x480 (4.5M) and the other at 320x240 (756KB). Both are at: (URL) engine was modeled using MLCAD. The DAT file was (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.ray)

What do you think LEGO would think of us selling such a poster at shows? I know they had a problem when some one was selling shirts with classic space minifigs, so I'd think they'd be a bit concerned about a poster with their train designs. jt (...)

(...) I'd want one personally and would pay that price although it is a LITTLE spendy. But i'm a fanatic. I think for clubs to have some to sell at shows, the sell point at the show would have to be closer to 5 USD meaning you'd need to sell them to (...)

Hi All, I printed the main train poster at 18"x24" and it is really cool. I even gave a couple away as Christmas gifts. But I don't believe many of you have access to large format printers, and bring this image on a CD to a copy center would cost a (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.publish)
