  Re: Containers
 
(...) Hmmm, we may be running into the limit of lego tolerances here. When I tried the assembly, it was clearly just the letters on top of the studs that kept it from working perfectly.

  Re: What do you do with multiple Blue Hoppers?

Has anybody recommend that this guy should go out, buy some decal paper or sticker paper, make the design on the comp, print it out, and paste it on? Last I saw, decal paper was about a dollar per sheet. Just a suggestion...nothing personal or (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
