(...) Club members built the first 6 rows by working on top of a pattern (a mirror image of a stripe, turned upside down so it would not stick). The shape gets locked in as soon as there are two rows of bricks in place. We used 6 rows to increase (...) (19 years ago, 19-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc, FTX)

(...) What about the curve? How did you maintain structural integrity with many people building the moc (as in the shape of the curve)? From my experience with 2x2 bricks and curves they do not have a lot of clutch power. So your building technique (...) (19 years ago, 19-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc, FTX)

(...) I am soooo jealous. Just looking at those pictures makes my heart pound. Great Job. I hope you post a picture or two about the structural make-up of the rows, etc. Brian (19 years ago, 19-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc, FTX)

(...) John- In fact, it's over 95% 2x2 bricks. They were the cheapest per stud of any brick we could find on BrickLink (in large volumes, of course). David prototyped the construction concept, which is 8 bricks (yup, it's an 8 wide) thick. Aside (...) (19 years ago, 19-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc, FTX)
