Post: Re: REQ: baseplate (a nice easy one!)

That was quick :) Indeed probably the most difficult part was deciding whether to call it 367a or u1193... I don't know the rules, but I had thought you might have gone for 367a, given the exist...

Baseplate 24 x 24 http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=367a#T=C http://peeron.com/inv/parts/x1193 Was a little surprised not to find this one, unless it's cunningly hidden un...

If I understand you correctly, it seems that 3 studs intersect the inside curved wall, and part 6003 is also affected the same way.

Can the pins from these electric connectors be removed and used directly into a light brick, as shown on the right two lights? It certainly looks like there is no necessity to have the grey connec...

Why can't you just use the Browse button (on the Open With dialog) to locate MLCad.exe ?

Post: Re: 42048 - Race Kart

There seems to be something wrong with the seat - the white beam and tan axles under the seat are clashing with the grey beams. Looks like it might just be the tilt angle of the seat.

Out of curiosity, your Canada Post Mail Truck is stuffed full of 0 !COLOUR statements, but your UNICEF Truck isn't. Is there a particular reason for that on this model, or is it just that the latter w...

Post: Re: 106 - Unicef Truck

Maybe this is UNICEF's version of the truck without the logo after Snowden revealed the NSA were spying on them ;p On a slightly more serious note, the clips/accessories are slightly misplaced.

Post: Re: 610 - Rescue Helicopter

Yes, I'm happier without the 0.5, because with it then technically the top of the pin is left under compression from the propblade, and you can clearly see that from a seamless ldview cutaway.

Post: Re: 610 - Rescue Helicopter

Looks correct rotor position to me now. I note the extra 0.5 you added to ensure it clears the lego logo on the stud ;) (I seriously doubt anyone would ever have quibbled on that score)

Not sure we'll ever find out if its 5 or 6 unless someone owns one of these. But, you're probably going to hate me for this, but the "repaired" mpd still has the main rotors at the wrong height. I ...

Mmm. What's interesting is that I've now found the same parts list on 3 sites, where the tail plates are 2x2, 2x3, 2x4, 2x4, 2x6 and matching the box-advertised 35 parts, but the only way I can see to...

Actually, looking at it again, I'm not entirely convinced :) It looks to me from the box photo there are 5 studs between the body and the tail. You (and my ebay link image) have 6. The parts lis...
