Welcome! Good to see you’ve decided to join us! 🙂
No school for me today! ^.^
Did you contact PennLUG about participating in the summer trolley event? This is the email address I have for Cale: “Cale” <[email protected]>
Thanks Greg, I will look into that.
The engine is this video has those custom wheels and the moving bar thingy, whatever it is called.
They’re “Side rods” or “Drive rods”
The original intent we to attempt to put 9v rails in the clear tracks shown below and run a 9v Ice planet space train. It looks like I will have no trouble running an RC train on it instead.
Okay gotcha. Those are sweet, where did they come from?
Okay, I’m confused, I can’t fathom why you would need metal rails if you are using batteries? Anyway, I would strongly recommend against removing metal from the rails. It’s basically folded and crimped around the plastic, as I’ve pointed out in the picture below, it would not be easy to reattach and if you did it would not have quite the same affect. RC/Power Functions trains will run on anything, including the floor, because the battery is going to turn the wheels to matter what, I’ve seen people make troughs out of wood to run PF trains on.
I would be willing to help out if it meant they’d be open to coming to the trolley museum to display for our summer “Trolley Fair” event as I posted about in the other “2018 events” thread.
I would consider 2:1, 3:1 is a bit steep.
There is a big glut at the moment. Many old timers that collected trains are passing away and/or thier collections are being liquidated. The trolley museum has been getting many donations from families recently because it is a difficult market to be a seller in at this time.
That’s great! North Hills, Washington PA, where?
It’s at Burgettstown as the STEAM instructor.
I am planning to buy and ship a new box,
If you’re still looking for a box, I have one that’s been folded flat.
Woot, job opening!
Welcome! Us ladies will take over yet! >:)
Very cool!
But Laura, how do you feel about motion capture? #freeAndySerkis!
Andy Serkis’s saliva can be seen on screen coming from the CG Gollum’s mouth. He ran around in the dirt to not only voice, but capture the spirit of the character. He deserves the credit.
Chris Pratt has Owen Raptor-Whisperer now… so depending on whether you think he gets credit for Emmet, he may be right up there with Davis and Molina… what say ye?
I would give him credit for 3 IMO I say voice acting counts.
Also, did they ever make a Jane Foster (Thor) fig? Cause if so Natalie Portman would have credit for her and Padme.
I was not aware of this thread either, subscribing now…
lol lamp post anyone?
I bought 8 of these at the bethel TRU on Monday (taking advantage of the $30 for a free JPW polybag.
Lacquer thinner is not surprising, that shit’s evil (but it’s awesome, I use it all the time).
When I was little I accidentally sandblasted the print off my aquanauts when playing with them in a sand-pile. I wouldn’t recommend that though as it scratches the shit out of them. Although I agree with Josh, you’re “barbarians.” >=DPay wasn’t amazing, hours weren’t always guaranteed and they made me to go to some weird places. I had fun doing the summer programs, which were pretty steady hours, but as far as after school things I would say unless you live in or close to Monroeville it’s probably not worth it.
When you have a Tech Ed opening let me know 🙂
If we put it up as SCLUG we will squeeze in as the last on page 1.
Aww, well it’s good to know that with LEGO children can aspire to be whatever they want to be without being judged 😀
