MOC: The Spare Partman Bridge

The Spare Partman Bridge by SavaTheAggie, on Flickr

I had a few light grey 2x4s left over from building my Cathedral, so I decided to throw together this tablescrap bridge for the upcoming TexLUG train show this weekend. It's designed to sit on the floor and span the gap between two tables.

It's 96 studs long and a whole, whopping, 8 studs wide, flaring to 10 studs at the base. :) It would actually be relatively simple (but a little time consuming) to calculate just how many 2x4s are in there, but I have not taken the time to do so.

Just a few spare pieces, huh? I'd beg for your table scraps...

Seriously, though, nice work. It will be cool to see it in a train set up to give it some added dimension.

Very impressive MOC, SavaTheAggie!

You had 'just a few brick left over' there has got be at least 1000 light grey 2 x 4s in there. The size and scale of it is very impressive.

Very well done.

7 columns, 8 bricks a row, 80+ rows approx four and a half thousand 2x4s just sitting around spare.

And I'll bet he still has some left over after that.
