How to build bridge using 4.5/12v train rails from 1969 Lego brochure Are you mainly interested in reconstructing the bridge exactly as it was in the photo, or constructing one that looks like it using the old rail pieces? Based on the parts available at the time (at least to the public) it does not appear the bridge in the photo is fully connected. Instead, it seems the "supports" are fitted around the railbed as decoration. Using modern pieces, though, it would not be hard to duplicate the appearance of the bridge and also make it structurally sound. |

What is the most compact way to make a flat six pointed star in LEGO? The screwdriver handles are textured, so that might help. I don't have enough of them to try it out, though. They do not fit snugly inside the pin hole, so you would need to use the tension from the band to hold them in place. Kind of a tricky operation in such a small area, but if you're a micro builder, probably nothing new! |

What is the most compact way to make a flat six pointed star in LEGO? A possible variation on the pulley would be to use some small element like a screwdriver or light saber blade inside the pins and then use two elastic bands to form triangles by stretching them around the pins. The gearshift solution looks OK head-on, but it is kind of messy from the sides. |

How to minimise or remove sun-stains/fading from blocks? A quick wash in a dilute bleach solution is not likely to harm the integrity of the plastic. A prolonged soak in a strong bleach solution, however, can leave pits in the surface of the ABS plastic and make it brittle. |

What is the difference between train motors 88002 and 10153? I'm not familiar enough with the specific 9V trains to know how well this would work. I think the main issue would be accommodating the battery box. |
