@Abbey Warner, Thanks I had a copy already but others might be interested in it. It’s a great work for sure.

@Strangebird, Glad I could help! Hope you enjoy the set as much as I did, and hope more importantly you find yourself between jobs for a shorter period of time then long.

I’m a Lego fan, have been since the tender age of two, and I’ve been considering this set for awhile. I haven’t bought any legos in about a year now and I’m currently “in-between” jobs and looking for a set that’s a nice balance of cost and piece count and variety. This is one I’ve been considering awhile.

Your review has helped me alot, I’ve decided to go with this set over the others I was considering. The dwarves mine and a lego creator set.

P.S. The Reaver comment pushed me over the edge, anything a Firefly fan enjoys is worth it in my book.

Oh and no worries about your imagination, the pics prove that the coding didn’t kill it. If that can’t, nothing will.

[...] In February I am giving a talk on photography to the NH Adobe User’s Group. As part of that, I’m roughing up some graphics to use in my brief explanation of photography terms. Hopefully I will find time to do this on an ongoing basis before the talk, so I can get my reader’s feedback. Please let me know if the graphics, and explanations make sense. Thanks! brickblog.net/2008/11/25/macro-photography-explained [...]

Looks like 55mm by 89mm if I’m using my architectural scale correctly…

Don’t worry about the name thing, no biggy.

Hi, thanks for the photos. Looks like they are compatible! I posted some photos of the Manfrotto 577 Quick Release Assembly at http://www.flickr.com/photos/69688300@N00/sets/72157606552051453/ Look at how similar are the key features in the two different QR systems.

Would you mind measure the width of the base of the plate for me please? The width of the base of my plate is 50mm.

If you like, you can post my photos on your blog. They may help other people comparing these different QR systems.
