Great. There's a complex simplicity about it. By that I mean I want to build one now but I know it's not that easy. Well done. H -

Serious piracy problem and its consequences
Lakop replied to Sariel's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I agree that you should maybe contact Lego and see if they can help. In a way you are promoting their products and I would expect it to be in their interests to protect your lego related work (but I could be wrong). As for those copying, they have nothing better to do. In the end it won't work as true lego builders will always go for the official books. Good luck (PS: I have one of your books. Interesting). H -

Pneumatic cranes question
Lakop replied to DarkShadow73's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Not sure. Could be the valve or where the tubing joins a T connector. I've experienced it myself many years ago. if you're displaying the model you could always work out another way to keep the boom up. H -

Not posted much on the forum recently but have kept one eye on the entries for this contest. All are great, in particular the forklifts and the trucks (Note to Jim: Maybe a forklift only competition in future) caught my attention. Well done and good luck to all. H

Considering what you can do with Lego I'll say it's no more expensive than anything else. Buy a video game for £50 complete it in three weeks and it's over. You can't make something else out of it. However, there are the smaller sets for kids and like many of us, they can dream about buying the bigger sets when they are older and earning. I'm sure the box size is all part of that dream. Taking that big box home and seeing all the other kids stare knowing what it is. It's all part of Lego marketing. I say buy what you can afford and if you want more then work hard, earn the money and treat yourself. I've set myself a goal and if I hit it i'll be having that Mercedes Truck. H
