    Brilliant! Thank you very much.

    Thank you. Would downloading the Education version firmware also address the datalogging functionality?

    Hello. I have 31313, but would like to access the curriculum material for 45544 that is provided by LEGO Education. Identifyying and obtaining the missing parts is straightforward enough, but it is not clear to me whether the "Intelligent Brick" that comes with 31313 can be repurposed for use with 45544. My apologies if I have not described the problem very well - I lack the necessary technical knowledge/uderstanding to describe it better. Thanks, Darryl

    I agree, especially about including Boost and WeDo - I am new to all three platforms, but am needing to learn about them for a club at school, and would find this helpful.

    Thank you - another one to add to the list. I have now built both the Lifting Cup Miniloop and Cardan Lift Miniloop, but have yet to get either to work as consistently as yours do. The LEGO GBC club that I started at school is now up and running, so perhaps the students can help me figure it out. Regards, Darryl

    Thank you for going to the trouble of arranging and making this - good advice, although at this stage in my life, time is in short supply. Regards, Darryl

    Many thanks. Darryl

    Again, many thanks for such a neat and accessible module - I shall look forward to the LDD file. By the way, I have built the Lifting Cup Miniloop (I have a couple of questions about this, which I will ask when I have time), and am hoping to build the Cardan Lift Miniloop today. Darryl

    I echo these thanks - between the two of you, this almost certainly means that the Mini Invisible Lift will be in the Speech Day display. Darryl

    Thank you, this is neat and quite hypnotic. Regards, Darryl
  11. dtoerien
    Thank you. I might hang on for that, then, if it happens - I was going to try it from the video instructions, but as I'm fairly certain that I don't have all the parts it is likely to be more difficult still.
  12. dtoerien
    Thank you. Is there any chance that you will remake your simplified Invisible Lift in LDD? I fully understand if not. Thank you for this advice - I will investigate Stud.io as time is too limited for LDraw, I fear.
  13. dtoerien
    As before, many thanks - I will add this to our build list for Speech Day. The parts for your Lifting Cup Miniloop and Cardan Lift Miniloop have arrived (I haven't yet been able to source the string), and I am hoping to build them over the course of the week. Unfortunately, producing PDF instructions from LDD is two orders of magnitude beyond my current level of ability. Regards, Darryl

    That's a clever use of space - thanks for sharing. Regards, Darryl

    Bobcat springs to mind. Thank you for sharing as you go along - I always learn so much. Regards, Darryl
  16. dtoerien
    Thank you for pointing to them. I will have a go in a couple of weeks when this very busy term ends.
  17. dtoerien
    Thank you so much for your effort and generosity. I am starting a LUG at school, and our initial focus will be GBCs for a display on Speech Day. Your mini loop modules will form the backbone of the display, and I was beginning to despair of finding an invisible lift that we might actually be able to build as a centrepiece. Your timing is perfect - let's hope ours is. Regards, Darryl P.S. Do you by any chance have a list of parts for this?
  18. dtoerien
    Thank you to all of you who gave me such helpful advice, and to Milan for relocating me. As it is turning out to be rather busy weekend, it will take me a couple of days to respond thoughtfully. Regards, Darryl
  19. dtoerien
    In your case, a thousand well-chosen words.
  20. dtoerien
    Thank you, it does - it is very helpful to be able to see how you have organised your elements. Thank you also for taking the trouble to post photographs.
  21. dtoerien
    Thank you, that will help me once I have sorted out the bulk storage.
  22. dtoerien
    Hello, and my apologies if this should go elsewhere - it relates to both storage and workplace, I guess, but isn't strictly either. I have a modest but growing collection of elements (type and number), and I would like to arrange them as best I can before the task gets out of hand. The question is how to group them most logically/usefully. I seem to recall Technica being helpful in this regard before, but as far as I can tell it no longer exists (LUGNET also lists Lutz Uhlmann's Part Reference, which sounds promising but also doesn't seem to exist). One approach would be starting with individual elements (e.g., LUGNET's Technic Elements, which seems to be strictly alphabetical) and then grouping them. The opposite approach would be to start with groupings of elements (such as BrickLink's Category Tree) and then working towards individual elements. I would also like to learn about the various Technic Elements, especially their proper names, and how they are related (in "families") in the process. While I appreciate that there is unlikely to be a definitive or 'cananonical' point of reference for this, I would be grateful for any advice on how best to proceed or to be redirected. Thanks, Darryl. P.S. I am a librarian by training and profession (and by nature, I suspect), so there are are powerful forces at work here.

    For #4, "Iced" springs to mind, as in "die" or "to be killed" (Urban Dictionary). Kind of like "the final word" - it has that look. Darryl.
  24. dtoerien
    No, England, which is now a profound step further away from Germany (and the rest of Europe for that matter). Odd that your other videos work. Oh, well, great opening shot of it perched on the rock!
  25. dtoerien
    Thank you. This is next on my To Do list. I finally finished JJ2's Super Crawler 2, but work has been hectic. I get a message saying that the video is not available. Your other videos appear to work, though.
