Another software upgrade, this time to v2.1, codenamed “Ella”. Probably no major differences on the outside, but as usual, let me know if there’s any problems.

Another small update to my LEGO instructions cross-reference, find them here. No new instructions, just a few updates. Highlights include:

Technic: 8288 (Second book no longer corrupt)

And a few other goodies 😉

Thanks for corrections to:

• Peeron.com

Administrators of other websites are now able to link to my instruction cross-reference page. There are several ways to do this. The main link to the page is http://www.br-eng.info/words/?page_id=29, all other variations are linked by adding parameters to the end of that URL. The options are:

• Instruction query – &ins_qry=xxx

  You can query the database via a link, by adding the ins_qry parameter. The search string must be numeric, between 3 and 7 digits. For example:
  http://www.br-eng.info/words/?page_id=29&ins_qry=10030

• LEGO Instruction code – &ins_code=4xxxxxx

  If you know the 7 digit LEGO code, you can link to it by adding the ins_code parameter. The search string must be numeric, 7 digits long, and start with “4”. For example:
  http://www.br-eng.info/words/?page_id=29&ins_code=4187320

• Peeron set code – &ins_set=xxx-x

  If you know the Peeron set number, you can link to it by adding the ins_set parameter. The search string must be numeric, between 3 and 7 digits, and contain a hyphen followed by the Peeron suffix. For example:
  http://www.br-eng.info/words/?page_id=29&ins_set=10030-1

I hope others find these new features useful.

Well, I just finished moving to my new place, and I am now getting ready to head to Sydney for the “Bridging Sydney” exhibition. Nice busy start to the new year. Thanks to Teunis, Paul, and Trav for helping out heaps on the move.

I hope to be able to take regular progress pics as I re-build the bridge, and will post the results here. I am also informed there will be official photos taken, which I should be able to get copies of. But there’s nothing like being there – I’d urge anybody who can make it to the exhibition to try to get there and check out all the exhibits.

It is at the Museum of Sydney, and runs until 29th of April, and although I will only be there building until 27th of January, my completed bridge will be on display until the end of the exhibition.
