First time I saw this 'system' used as key bricks has been with 1x1x0.33
rectangle plates. My friend Frank 'Pudie' Abel (last years ISCC winner) did
that more than 2 years before.

(See the red building. Those have not been finished, when he displayes them in
2000 at our FGLTC train show.)
Although I bought a used and built up breezeway cafe once, I was not aware TLC
used that trick. I only broke that set down without caring about the lamp
idea. So I am really surprised now.
Kind Regards,
Ben

| (...) I'd call it "one and a half" :-) (...) But I would posit that those were done for the lighting effect rather than for the keystone arch simulation as John did (which, by the way, is REALLY neat.... gonna have to crib it.) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains)
