Q's & A's on instructions, tutorials, scans, book reviews

[pr0visorak]

Thanks for putting up all these great instruction kimT, I never knew these instructions existed till now.

[KimT]

I'll move this to the instructions Q's and A's

Thanks for sharing

Moving this to the Instructions Q's and A's.

I never understood how they manage to let mistakes like these slip through quality control

You kinda expect when buying an expensive set that the manual is right.

Nobody wants to buy a beautiful car that doesn't have an engine, do they?

EDIT: UCS Scale Ties by Walter Kovacs

KimT

I have instructions for most of my UCS scale TIE variants, in their respective folders. Here's a link to my TIE Variants:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=305481

I can easily add instructions for my MINI TIE variants, as well. I'll post in this topic again when I get them uploaded.

[KimT]

Great.

I'll add your link to the first post

EDIT: UCS AT-AT Instructions

Hey Kim,

If you want to add them, I did some for an UCS AT-AT a few months back.

I still haven't had the time or money to build it, but, plan to some day!!

When I click the link I seem to be getting a server error. The web address of it doesn't seem to link to your gallery though? It says "http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=310047&n=47" I thought there is usually the name of the gallery's owner somewhere in that.

EDIT: it probably works but I just found our Brickshelf isn't working right now for me.

It works fine for me.

[Skipper 24]

It works fine now. Maybe when I went on they were doing some maintenance or something. That's a pretty sweet AT-AT by the way.

[jamie75]

Thanks KimT,

If you get it built before me. LMK, I would like to see it built in real bricks!!

I plan on starting it a couple months after I get my new house done. Kids, wife, 2 houses. No time or money for Lego!!

1. I'm afraid you're too late. This was already posted in the 2008-2009 sets topic(or was it the Death Star topic?).

2. Don't post new threads for new news you think is new news.

A lot gets lost in the mega-threads. I actually thought this seemed familiar, but a normal search didn't turn it up, though I am sure it exists. It won't hurt to have it here, for now, then it could be merged if we really want to.

2. Don't post new threads for new news you think is new news.

Post old threads for new news? Er... new threads for old news? How about ...

3. Don't play moderator unless you have the badge.

Thanks!

[snake1992]

Sorry if this is old news guys I apolagise.

I tried a search but I couldn't find anything concrete so I thought I'd go ahead and post it for anyone that may have missed out.

[meschepers]

It's really not a big deal. I have had this happen myself. I found something that I hadn't seen on here before so I did a search of the site and found nothing. After I made my post I got several comments about how it had already been posted.

I just don't get why members feel they need to be so rude about things, especially when they are not mods.

It's no problem.

It's good that you posted this.

I'll just move it to the Instructions Q's & A's topic - so that we have instruction topics gathered in one space.

Thanks for sharing your find with us

(Who's playing moderator in my forum? )

[Medievalego]

Hi guys, I bought this used sans instructions ... I only need to figure out the center construction ... have the wings completed ... if anyone could message me, that'd be great.

I know the peeron policy and all, but I did buy it, just in a lot and minus instructions. Thanks!!!

I'm a bit late, but you could also use Brickfactory almost every set ever.

[KimT]

I've just added this: "Advanced Building Techniques Manual click >here< " to the 1st post. Take a look people, it holds a great deal of cool techniques usable when building.

It was mentioned in another topic somewhere on EB and I thought it might be useful for us Star Wars fans

[Skipper 24]

That's pretty neat Kim T are there any more section to it?

Dunno.

Hopefully someone will come along and read this, followed by a posting of more unofficial manuals for us

[KimT]

Or you could have looked in the topic on Instructions.

I'll merge this into the proper topic.
