Personal: I've been interested in Lego only since last May, when my son
received set #4153 for his birthday. My creativity for designing constructions
is extremely limited, so I would very much wish to borrow, trade or otherwise
obtain copies of instructions for models I don't have (hint, hint).
Claim to Fame: Nothing I've got or have built is notable. I have posted to the
FTP archive on earthsea.stanford.edu listings with piece by piece inventory
information for fifteen of my sets and reviews for eleven of these sets. I am
compiling a list of Lego pieces by description and part number (where
available). I wrote the Lego folks in Enfield and Billund, asking if there's
an official set of names and numbers for all the pieces; they replied that this
information is for use inside the company only and is not to be made available
to customers. Anybody with more information is invited to contact me by email.
