martinsuper Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 I am finishing with my new fort MOC, and I am in the design phase on my next MOC Can someone answer me a simple question? If you were to put the rope bridge on a baseplate, how much area would it cover? I know its four studs wide, but how many studs long is it? Thank in advance! -Super It looks like 17 or 18 in this picture? I'm assuming 18? Might be a dumb question, but better safe than sorry, right?! Quote
martinsuper Posted June 11, 2009 Author Posted June 11, 2009 Its 16 studs long Is it really? I was WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Off. Well, let the new MOC begin! Quote
The Cobra Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 From that pic, it looks like it's 16 inside (the arched part), but 18 if you count the "outside bricks". Quote
Admiral Croissant Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 I believe it's 16 too, but I have one of my own and he has a very strange lenght, he is always a little bit too long or too short, I always had a fight with that thing well, just try 16 Quote
Captain Green Hair Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 From that pic, it looks like it's 16 inside (the arched part), but 18 if you count the "outside bricks". That is the correct answer. Quote
martinsuper Posted June 11, 2009 Author Posted June 11, 2009 That is the correct answer. So from end to end it is 18? Quote
Hound Knight Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 So from end to end it is 18? It's 16 studs from one end t'other. Quote
Captain Green Hair Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 So from end to end it is 18? Yes that is correct iincluding the bricks on ends. Quote
Hound Knight Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 Yes that is correct iincluding the bricks on ends. No, It's 16. I just went and measured it. Quote
General Armendariz Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 So from end to end it is 18? Yes that is correct iincluding the bricks on ends. What? I counted three times, end to end its 16 Quote
Tom Bricks Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 I also got 16 heres a pic on a 2 x 16 plate: Quote
General Armendariz Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 I also got 16 heres a pic on a 2 x 16 plate: In your face CGH! Jk thanks for showing that Quote
martinsuper Posted June 12, 2009 Author Posted June 12, 2009 THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I ASKED! I mean, I thought this was a simple question, I didn't know it could start such debate! Thanks for the info guys, 16 helps me out a lot more actually than 18. If it was 18, I would have been in a pickle! Quote
Captain Green Hair Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 Yes but that is in the metric system....crap i should have gotten my calculator. Quote
martinsuper Posted June 12, 2009 Author Posted June 12, 2009 Yes but that is in the metric system....crap i should have gotten my calculator. I think you forgot to carry the two! Quote
lego fox Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 (edited) um can someone let me in on what the metric sistem has to do with this if we are just conting studs hear I would think that unless Lego demnshens chang depending on wich side of the planet your on 16 or 18 studs would be the same wether in metric or English System? Or is this argument about wether the pece is measured from the outside of the brick wich for me commes to 18 studs from what I'm seeing and from the ends of the span is 16 studs, not incloding the brics on the ends. Or did I miss somthing intierly? Wich for me is very commen. Edited June 12, 2009 by lego fox Quote
Stauder Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 Lego Fox, it was a joke. CGH, maybe there are two versions of the rope bridge? One 16 studs and one 18? Stauder. Quote

Hay Stauder wered you go? And if enybodey is wondering don't werry about a thang I diden't mind Stauder's misunderstanding. I got a litel laf out of it.
