Welcom to ang "Guude" from anither german AFOL living in the Taunus aera at Bad Camberg! Are you planning to visit the grand opening of the LEGO Store in Wiesbaden? Ciao Thomas

Hi there! I just updated Sets 123 and 125. Here are two more sets. 721 Steam Locomotive GIF XML 122 loco with tender GIF XML Could somebody pls. doublecheck the 122 files? It look's like my Bluebrick v1.6 installation ignores the SnapMargin section. The GIF will not fit in the middle of rails. Thanks! ciao Thomas

Hello again! I started planning a "LEGOLAND" Layout for "LEGO Fanwelt" in Cologne, november this year. We're going to display sets from 1958 to 1977. So I have to design the GIFs and XMLs for that area I want to share. Weetabix Castle GIF XML House w Miniwheel car GIF XML Swiss Villa GIF XML These are the first "shots". More GIFs will come. Regards! Thomas

Hi ALban! For me your Part Tracker works great! Excellent work! Greets! Thomas

Hi! Very surprising! I heard about that "design leak". I ran my Emerald with PF on a show in December two days, about 6 hours a day (as long as the rechargable battery lasted) without any problems. On which brick, point exactly the piston is jamming? Cheers and thanks! Thomas

As a child my biggest wish was a miniscale train layout. I never got it but what i got alternatively is still reflecting to my adult ages ;-)

Try here!

Hi! To get an idea how lager the regular AA bettery box would be in the Emerald Train tender, you may check out.Additionally try that! HTH greets Thomas

I got your PM. Thanks for all the information. I'm still working on the Toy Shop. Seems more complex as suggested :-(. I don't know if there is a similar phrase in english, but in Germany we like to say: "Hardly the chipmunk cherish itself!" Greets Thomas

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes and yes. Did I already say Yes? Pls. more HP Sets!

So, here ist the updated Service Station icluding car and motocycle. GIF XML remains as posted earlier! Enjoy! Cheers! Thomas

I'll try to update the Service Station until the weekend. Greets Thomas

The folder is public now! Enjoy!

O.K. Here we are: SET# 4996 Beach House First build option: GIF XML Second build option GIF XML Set# 675 Snack Bar (redesigned) GIF XML Set# 7993 Service Station GIF XML Car GIF XML Motorcycle GIF XML And a tribute to Harry Potter Series Set# 4728 Escape from the Pivet Drive Corner shape GIF XML Straight shape GIF XML An of course the flying car GIF XML Anybody working on 10199 Winter Toy Shop???? Cheers Thomas

Hi there! My first train moc. I tried to motorize the engine itself. Many of train MOCs with BBB Wheels are pushed by tender based motors. Mine not, a old fashioned geared 9V Motor does the job. I used the tender to put ther IR receiver and the rechargable battery pack. The 50ct !!! IMHO the boiler is still to small and the whole construction might be heavier. It will pull 3 Coaches (36studs long). So, any comments are welcome. Cheers! Thomas EDIT: Of course "a Hogwarts Express Engine" ;-)

Hi! I'll try the Snack Bar again. The Beach House was resized with Paint.net and I used the MLCad colour "Light Green" as the original basplate is brighter than the standard green. Cheers! Thomas

O.K. Brickshelf is up again and you'll find the original BMPs here here Cheers! Thomas

I tried that way! A little bit noisy :-( Any comments are welcome. Cheers! Thomas

Okay! My first finished GIFs. Any comments are welcome. Pls. check here. Maybe it'll take a while until published. 4996 Building option 3 and 7993 Service Station are in progress. Regards! Thomas

Hi! I'm interested in 4996 Beach House. What would shipping costs be to Germany? [thomas(minus)hess(at)online(dot)de] Regards! Thomas

Hello! I think, you don't have to be worried about heating up. The power consumption will not heat up any device. I equipped the Emerald Express with the recommended PF Elements and it runs about 4h at medium speed. From my point of view another rechargable battery is worth ist. Cheap R/C Tracks....mmmh... I think the best way is to look for sales or special offers. HTH Regards! Thomas

Hi Alex I got following response, when I tried to send you an PM: "You are not allowed to use the messenger feature on this board" ?????? Currently I finished 361 - Garage 675 - Snack Bar Nothing really in good quality:-( Maybe you can approve a little bit the pic quality? I'm still working on 7993 - Service Station 10199 - Winter Toy Shop Regards! Thomas

Hi Alex! Thanks for reply! I'm familar with MLCAD/LDVIEW and that kind of software. I also exported once a picture for test purposes from MLCad and resized it via MS Paint to hit the 1stud=8pixel scale. Is that an appropriate way? That means if I own a set which isn't already included I have to rebuildat least the bricks seen from the top. Right? Regards! Thomas
