Thank you for the nice comments. I have included the newsletter here for anyone
who missed it.

I didn't get this sent to me. I have my settings set to receive emails from
Bricklink.

Is there somewhere this can be accessed so we can clock the links in it?

I just checked my emails from May 28 and I did NOT receive the Catalog Newsletter.

Hello,
I have adding quite a few parts over the last few days, and it seems to take
too long.
Any tips on sorting these parts and cataloging them?
I currently am just adding them into brickstore and mass upload-ing.
Thanks,
The Brick llama

If they are plain bricks try parting out a classic set that has a whole lot of
them. If they are special pieces, see if you can figure out a set that has a
bunch of them.

I've never done this because I don't do that, but it seems like it could
help.

thanks that is a good idea

That's a lot of moths!

I wouldn't necessarily assume this to be indicative of long-term trends,
though. Summer is always slow, and with many countries relaxing COVID-19 restrictions,
I expect this summer to be even slower.

certainly is

With just over a couple of weeks to go until 1st July, it would be useful to
know Bricklink's IOSS VOEC, ABN numbers etc in advance, so sellers can set
up electronic customs/CN22 values in advance, rather than leaving it to the last
minute.

$1.43 per fig, but considering the dollar amount you're looking to spend
it's not bad

Re: TrixBrix r24 circle size in studs?

Topic:

The track indicates a radius of 24 studs (it’s in the name) so the outer perimeter
of the circle is 2 x pi x r, which gives 150.80 studs. Inner perimeter
use 8 studs less for the radius, so the inner perimeter length is 100.50 studs.

Hi

Does anyone know the TrixBrix r24 circle size in studs?

I understand it’s 3rd party bricks but can’t find any Lego alternative to try
and fit a turn on a smaller footprint., if there is a Lego alternative then please
let me know.

Thanks

also i dont want to spend alot on it
so idk what imma do
but if anyone has alot of these pieces i might be interested

Yeah, well, I thought you already had some of the parts but if you haven’t any,
and if you don’t want to build or complete an old set, I wouldn’t buy them just
to use on a MOC. Not only this system has been discontinued, it didn’t last
very long.

So, a 2x8 plate with contacts, two 1x2 light brick on top, on the long side (2
studs occupied by a light brick, 4 empty studs, 2 studs for the other light brick
= 8 studs long), then the 1x8 prisms brick on top of the lights.

Nope, it’s a brick with prisms, there’s no light. But there’s two holes on the
bottom in which you can put the light of a light brick (and the prisms then redirect
the light to the front).

So you need two 1x2 light bricks (with light on top) between the plate and the
1x8 prisms brick.

So, a 2x8 plate with contacts, two 1x2 light brick on top, on the long side (2
studs occupied by a light brick, 4 empty studs, 2 studs for the other light brick
= 8 studs long), then the 1x8 prisms brick on top of the lights.

Read that it is no longer being supported, so figured it was time to upgrade.
Downloaded brickstore, but when I try to open it, I just get a blank white screen.
Anyone else have that issue (Win10 X86)?

I haven't received any bug-reports for such a problem.
There are however three things to check:

1) In the case the BrickStore installer told you to restart your system, you
really should do it. This is not my idea of aggravating users, but Microsoft
decided to distribute mini-Windows updates with their C/C++ runtime packages
that I have to install alongside BrickStore.

2) Disable your anti-virus (all of them) and see if BrickStore starts now

3) Update the drivers of your graphics card (especially if you don't have
a dedicated one and you are using the integrated Intel graphics)

See also here for currently known problems and workarounds (also has a link to
the Intel drivers):

PS: Use the x64 version if possible - the 32bit x86 one is constantly running
out of memory with the high-resolution item images in use nowadays.
