(...) Have you ever thought that maybe you need to get a house with a bigger basement? <gdr> In totally non-related news, I noticed in Sunday's GR Press that the Big White Cube at the end of your street has gone up for sale.

I'm building ZNAP choo-choo bridges as well. One is 6 feet long and carries two levels of trains, so I have some feel for how ZNAP would extend to large-scale construction frames. ZNAP is softer than TECHNIC beams; it flexes a lot more, which has (...) (25 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.znap)

Hi, Znap came to a nearby TRU so I bought the 3510 polybag to check it out. I wonder about using Znap for a skyscraper skeleton. Does anybody have a working scheme for this? Below are some of my thoughts so far. Why do it? Load-bearing brick walls (...) (25 years ago, 14-May-00, to lugnet.znap, lugnet.town, lugnet.build)
