Ben,

There are 2 standard heights for Legomodular now - 10 bricks and 22 bricks.
We have gotten all the particulars worked out, I believe.  I just fired off
a Word Doc to everyone for comments before it is posted.  I want to make
sure everyone understands what was agreed upon and that our intended plans
are stated correctly.

Mike

Chairs as skirting!! Wow is that cool. And using the LL928, what a great • touch.
Makes me want to go out and blow a hundred just to get a copy of that
sticker/brick (I forget which)

ben>> It's a brick.


We're starting to see a nice variety of "steamroller steamers", my newly • coined
term for steamers that use flangeless main drivers that extend back into • the
interior of the engine.

Anything that uses solid or boxpox drivers is a good candidate for this
approach.

ben>> Larry, would you please elaborate. I do not know what you mean by • boxpox
drivers?  Would those be drive wheels that do not have spokes?


Nice work, Ben.


ben>> Thanks Larry!  Is it save to say that I got the wheel arrangement • right
for this train?  For if it was wrong, I'd normally expect you to comment • as
such.


I guess plywooders DO know how to build (rolling stock, anyway). :-)

ben>> Was there any doubt?  No sersiously, thanks for the compliments. • And
when I finish my roundhouse/turntable, I expect to impress you with my • solid
LEGO creation (Legomodular as I think you termed it).  While it's only • five
bricks tall at the base (and not 16), it should still qualify.
