    Re: New Train Window Ideas (old and copied) —John Gerlach
   (...) Huh? What do I know?? Which end are we talking about - the 'top' of the windows or the 'bottom'? For the bottom use Larry's favorite piece - the Technic 1.2 peg (or whatever it's called). For the 'top', use the same technique, but in reverse - (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

   (...) That it is! Love that piece! (...) Yes, and with the "bottom" having two attachment points, (1.2 and 1x1 w/side stud turned sideways) the top having only one should still be plenty to keep the windows securely held. (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: New Train Window Ideas (old and copied) —Mike Poindexter
   I thought that the 1x1 w/side stud was a recessed side stud. Wouldn't that leave a gap? I believe that we are going to be having these windows only get one stud on each side connecting this way. Even still, as long as they are staggered (one side on (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

   (...) Yes. HOWEVER, the trick is to turn this piece sideways (so that the normal "back" is on the bottom), then put a plate on top. If you do that, the height is one brick, there is a stud AT THE BOTTOM EDGE of the face, and the stud is flush with (...) (25 years ago, 28-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

   (...) Of course, to go along with it, what would be nice would be a full series of connectors. A brick with 2 opposing side studs would not be a POOP (unless there's some pieces I don't know about), nor would a brick with 2 studs on adjecent sides, (...)
