Yeah, that's what those LEGOLAND places are like, from the pictures I have seen. Some people have actually built smaller version of those lego cities (smaller, but still a good 6m by 6m ) right in their homes.

I think the Star Wars sets include minifig versions of all the characters from the movies. I have mostly been following the progress of Technic and Mindstorms for the last several years.

Well Denmark is a small Country.

While still standing in Denmark, two people could only be maximum 400 kms from each other.

I've got Lego from back when the mens legs didn't move and the most advanced piece was a slanty roof tile.

[Killfrenzy]

Thanks, Fozzy!

BTW - how do you rotate a piece so it lies at 45 degrees to the horizontal?

Does anyone else here have the lego mindstorms?  I got it last year and they are really awesome  

Look at these things:

A fully functional coke machine:


A walking robot:

A walking robot, that was my ultimate lego dream...

[CP5670]

One guy made a robot that could climb up smooth surfaces, such as windows, using the old one-way pneumatics and suction cups.

I played around with one of those kits a while back...


Friggin' awesome. I built something unrecongizable and completely useless that worked in about half an hour flat- that's only a little longer than it takes me on a computer!:D

[Bishop Gantry]

Where can I get MLCad?

I would be easy to break into that coke machine. Mmmmmm Coke. (said like Homer Simpson) Yum.

I'll bet that's exactly what the six americans killed by coke machines every year think

You mean I might die from Coke!? Say it ain't so! BTW how would you keep the drinks cold?

Basically they try to tip it over to get free coke but forget how heavy the machine is and get squashed!
 I suppose a lego machine might be lighter (then again maybe not!)

You know, I keep hearing all this garbage about Americans who get drunk stupid and act like idiots, and I'm getting sick of it. Beer for a good number of the people I meet here is completely unnecessary.

[Bishop Gantry]

well for the most parts americans tends to rubb their "We are better than you and your stenkin country" attitude way to often even if they dont do it on purpouse or mena to rub it in it happens and it happens , I dont blame americans for this but this is what the US goverment tell the americna people troughout their entire years of school edjucation...

aswell is the tendancy to keep foreingers point of view as far away from american as possible...

example  Sept 11... most Americans where shocked to relize that people hated americans enough to ram planes into their buildings...

Do they prefer spirits?

Great thing aobut living in the UK is that u dont have to be 18 (or even 21) to drink.  You just need to be 18 to buy alchohol.
This has gone OT.  Get back to Lego.

after some days of practice with MLCad...

[Killfrenzy]

Here's my initial entry:



And I STILL want to know how to get something to lie at 45 degrees to the horizontal.

[Corhellion]

Your answer Killfrenzy:

somewhere on one of the tool bars are three (3) "grid" icons, one is big, one is medium, the other is small. click the medium or middle icon.

there is a rotation icon somewhere else on the tool bars, click the one you want, and it will rotate 45' only.

problem solved.

oh, and go here if you wanna join the www.lugnet.com lego forums (yes lego has forums)

anyway
