    Re: BF 2003 Container Swap —Larry Pieniazek
   (...) IIRC, you're a member of the nascent M>LTC, right? The containers are the standard 4x8 containers that LEGO uses. (1) These are somewhat on the small side, especially for clubs that work in 8 wide, but it's sort of tradition at this point. (...)

      (...) At BrickFest 2003 in DC we did an "incremental swap". Search for posts by Rob Hendrix around that time, he posted some very good explanations.

      (...) I'm thinking about going to the brickfest in Portland. I just have to see what a plane ticket costs. And the other expences. Do we make one container for each LTC ?

     (...) Ditto for MichLTC and myself. As to stickers/containers (J2's post elsewhere in the thread), I have to say that I find actual containers a lot niftier. Much more tangible memento of the actual event. (21 years ago, 3-Dec-03, to lugnet.trains.org)
