I think someone is showing some of my work at BrickShelf. Other folk have this
happen, too?
My original work with the graphic assistance of Jeroen de Haan:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=74304
And a re-use and organization of the same images (I think) by Train417:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=260822
It's a nice re-organaization of the instructions. I guess I have some concern
that the pics were taken, but I'm not that bothered by it. Maybe it will call
attention to the design again, and get others inspired to build it or build
their own versions...again...as the B-Unit is a bit of an aging project-- old to
many, but still fresh to newcomers.
Just wondering what you all think?
Thanks.
later,
James Mathis
