    Elf. There is LEGO in the movie. LOL.

    You could make your own controller with an Arduino and some coding for a lot less than a Sbrick. You can also use different inputs than a touch screen for control. Using the 8879, pressing the red button will return the servo motor to center position.

    I lubricate my GBCs after storing over the winter and before the start of the new event/show season. Sometimes it helps. If it doesn't, then it's disassemble, clean, replace wornout parts and reassemble. There is no easy way to get around maintenance of mechanical stuff except, paying someone else to do the work.

    Maybe the silver colored magnet?

    Watch out for loose bit of carpet fibers getting on the tracks, they can get between the rubber tire and track. They could also get into the motor and axles. Most likely you need more weight over the train motor.

    3 car unit seems like it is not too big or too small and in a price range affordable by many. I guess you can blame CAF, Bombardier, Stadler, etc. for making their modern intercity passenger trains to pretty much all look alike. [img}/

    Welcome aboard Catalin. Have you tried using a grid over a picture of a building to size and scale it?

    It's a massacre.

    It's close but no cigar.

    Maybe her science experiment went wrong like in The Fly. Any official background explanation to the new Olivia?

    I think that may depend on the library. My local library doesn't. They probably want to keep things simple as most library staff aren't 3d printing experts. There can be a lot of tweaking to get a different brand filament to print correctly.

    Imperial Flagship and Black Pearl.

    It's probably going to be like $150 CAD in Canada. Hope I get cash for Christmas instead of presents.

    You could try LEGO Technic flexible axles to "spring" them back. How many studs are between your wheels? If they are less than 16, you might be able to get away using fixed bogie frame.

    You could also try to press them in with a press or vise. The opening could be enlarged with a drill so that the bearing doesn't put the plastic under more stress than necessary to hold the bearing in place.

    Yeah, those Canadian dollar coins are kind of loonie.

    I revoted.

    That's quite an enjoyable video.
