Building LEGO

Here is a direct link to the Flickr group so you can check out all the microbuilds of this incredible project.

I decided to start taking down some sets I have built and displayed. I already had several pieces break just by separating the bricks. I have been using the brick separator too. This is very frustrating considering how much we pay for these fricking sets. Now I have to put in an order for bricklink where the shipping and handling will cost 10x what bricks I need replaced. I think I am going to end up just leaving some of the bigger sets intact.

I have posted several models I have built here on this site. Those that have read them know that one of my interests is pushing the limits of Lego Technic and even supplementing Lego elements with others at times to increase functionality. I understand that Lego is primarily for kids, but its versatility is unmatched for those interested in building things on their own and therefore I have no problem using it for more adult-like purposes (increasing its functionality). Here is my latest creation showing the strength and reliability of Lego Technic if built correctly. Check out my mocpages for the whole write-up; I will not repost the whole thing here. It is a litt…

When building a set do you apply the stickers if the set has them? Curious as to what others do.

New house has a pretty substantial office space that is dedicated to my built displays, etc. But what I don't have currently is a table to actually build on... Anyone have any pictures of what they use or any cool ideas?

Hey everyone, I posted a version of my Unimog recently.. here are more pictures and another video. For full details of this project check out my mocpages http://mocpages.com/moc.php/407959 I am too lazy to put it all here I had lots of fun with this project, and I think it raises some "firsts" or at least breaks some ground in Technic building in new areas. First, I have no idea for certain, and will probably be proved wrong (which is fine by me) but this model may have the largest third party tires used for Technic models. They are nearly 6 inches tall! I have not seen any taller. Second, I haven't really seen any models being used for muddin'. We hav…

Hi. There is again a good telerobotics app for android called RoboCam. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.proghouse.robocam&hl=en_US You build a Mindstorm's EV3 robot and tape on an android mobile. The mobile connects with Bluetooth to EV3 and then with wifi to the internet. It can then be remotely controlled from other countries from a mobile or computer in a browser. Here is some collected info from their website about their app development. http://www.proghouse.ru/tags/robocam Translate it with Google translate. https://translate.google.com It is not in open source as CellBots was released in 2009. www.cellbots.com …

Hi Fellows , this one is also part of my collection ! just wanted to share it ! The Hangar 327 Escape (Collectors Edition) is a Diorama recreation made in LEGO pieces of the scene of the original movie: Star Wars, Episode IV,

Lego has updated their minisite for The Lego Movie with a section called Create & Combine. Basically, it is an area for builds Lego has come up with that only use pieces from two different sets to make something new meaning it is quite easy to do these yourself. So far there is a total of six different designs, one of which is just instructions and a parts list. Anyway, you can see what the two sets needed for the combination are after downloading the instructions or just check out the attached images here. Via The Brick Fan

After seeing a post on The Brother's Brick, I got inspired and decided to create my own small scale THE LEGO MOVIE logo. Because of my lack of pieces, I had to construct a cube and build the words over it. I know that grey is not the ideal color, but that is what I had. I still want to buy some pieces on Pick-A-Brick to finish off the texture on the front. Here's the back: Comments, criticisms, and suggestions welcome!

Hello! I want to introduce my build - The Mirror of Galadriel. The set is dedicated to the iconic scene from "The Lord of the Rings" where Lorien queen Galadriel shows hobbits their future, using the magic elven mirror. The set consists of approximately 100 pieces and includes 2 minifigures. I also posted my work on LEGO Ideas, so if anyone like it, he may support it. After acquiring 10000 supports, my work can be released as official LEGO set. The link on my project page: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/85110

I am not even going to bother trying to explain this one. Just click, be amazed, and laugh your butt off!

You may have heard of Pepa Quin before if you can recall the huge city of New New York from Futurama he did a year or so ago. Anyway, his next challenge was the city of Springfield from The Simpsons. via The Brick Fan

Well y'all wouldn't shut the heck up about it so here you go; The Simpsons Monorail.

In the endless fires at the center of the dark world by the rocks of despair sounds a voice. It is a black, evil Voice that creates and controls vile powers harvested through toxic energies. Winding wings catch the dark air while unyielding bones march trough flames. Even the one from above cannot hide from it. Some say the castle lives, some say the Voice is dead. Someone could be a fool. The Voice of Evil (Not related but somehow the tune fits and just makes this MOC that more awesome. )

This should be good for a laugh.

It would seem the Hot Wheels/Matchbox sized LEGO sets of 2005-2011 inspired a style of small sleek street rods across the community. Some pretty good usage with so few parts in my opinion.
