Can anyone tell what is the size (in Lego) of the elements used to make the two loop? I would especially like to know the size of the arc.

Use Stud.io. If you can't figure it out, I could possibly help you in MLCAD. There are a couple ways to do it.

What are you trying to do? What software do you use? Tell us more, Please. Are you trying to build two instances of something in the same step?

Bricksafe link?

Great for America!!!!!!! It's about time.

Racing Brick has this suggestion for step 240, should this be done also? Or, is this fixing the same thing in step 241 above? Step 240 (Racing Brick) A minor error, if the knob gear is in this position forming an X then the axle cannot be inserted in this position forming a +. Both the axle and the knob gear will have the + orientation when inserted in place.

Erik Leppen you are right. Yes, I think part names ought to be more appropriate, too. I mean if the part has a pin, pinhole, axle or axlehole, it's name ought to start with Technic (whether it's a brick, plate or tile), Bricklink's nameing evolved over time as new parts came along. So, it's not even their fault! It would be much easier to find parts too.

This is great! Do you have a picture of what the tip looks like that actually picks up the marble?

Ditto!!!

I use Plano type boxes, 3700 series which come in several configurations. They are dust free and easily stack like drawers in "modular utility box wire racks". Unfortunately, because of Covid19, they are harder than hens teeth to find these days. I also use Lego education bins for larger items. I stack them in shelves or on roller bases which can go under a table. I also use plastic cabinets with clear drawers on rollers. They are not so dust free.

Stud.io parts are LDRAW, .dat files. I don't know if Stud.io can use STL files but MLCAD will convert STL files to .dat.

McAfee Flagged it "Suspicious" before I downloaded it. Microsoft Defender prevented this from running upon ordering the set-up installation. I am not going to run this copy on my PC. I just shredded it. Sorry Erik, I was trying to see what would happen on my PC in order to maybe help. I'm going no further. Maybe corruption is the prolem?

I think you are right. Check this out: https://www.lego.com/cdn/cs/set/assets/bltc0add98c97e35d0e/02.06.21_LEGO_PickaBrick_v2.mp4 TLG is still working on it. Probably don't have every warehouse conpletely stocked yet. Hopefully this will mean a better selection and shorter wait times.

This happened over a month ago. I don't appreciate the new charges either. But TLG did not consult AFOLs about this. TLG does what is necessary for them. At least they didn't take it away entirely.

The guide for TCC II was definitely worth the scanning, the two guides are different. Thanks again lcvisser!!!

Well, I'm in the USA. So, I'll try to help. Ebay and Amazon are big here. We also have a free site called Craigslist that you can buy/sell almost anything. There are also Lego reseller stores. Personally, I can't stand the thought of parting with any Legos. You never know what you're gonna need. But, I too, am at the point of having too much. Who owns what anyway? Do you own the Legos or do they own you? Maybe just get rid of a few things to make room for some new stuff.

What continent are you on?

You're right, that spring isn't the correct one for this shockabsorber.

That #108 spring will assemble properly with the plastic parts, no problem. My stud.io updated yesterday.

I'm not much of a Stud.io user, so bear with me. Under where it says Master on the left, select BL Categories, I typed in the search box "shock", and up came a buch of the individual pieces to assemble a whole shock absorber. Give it a whirl.

You can assemble the shock absorber as three parts in Stud.io, coloring each part as you want. I just did this making the spring "chrome silver" and the plastic parts a different color. I rendered it using photoreal. It looks very chromey to me.

I need a digital copy of the guide for Technic Control Center II. Does anyone have one or can anyone direct me to a copy of it? I don't mean building instructions. I need to know how it operates.

THANK YOU for the video and all the great know how. Thanks for sharing!!!! I have some wire that is like that. I used liquid electrical tape. But, that is only a short term fix.

Maybe, you've found these already: 1. Lego Dacta Control Lab 1.0 for Windows 95 : LEGO Group : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive 2.

I have some Lego Educatrion catalogs, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2015, 2016, 2017.Also, I have Robotics booklets from 2006, 2007, 2008,2008, and STEM with Robotics 2010. I'll keep looking, I have a whole metal file drawer of Lego catalogs and magazines. Let me know if you want anything from these. I just found Lego Dacta catalogs, etc. from 1991 through 1995.
