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 anything.

IRL name and logo plates are often welded onto the rib bulges so

clearance reasons. If you're not going to be stacking your sebulba
container next to other containers and not going to be gripping it, let
the tile stick out 1/2, it's not that bad. IMHO.

I may end up doing that, though I would like for the containers to be
able to be stacked beside each other. Of course I haven't seen a
solution yet which I have all the necessary orange parts, my solution so
far comes the closest (since I could use the grille tiles), though Rob's
solution wouldn't look to bad, there would just be a thin gap above the
tile (or it would be a thin stripe in another color), which could look
like some sort of vent.

(...) It's a great idea. If you're impure. :-) Purists (and I'm mostly in this camp) like to see what they can do without using non LEGO things. But there's nothing wrong with your suggestion. (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
