    Tiles are the obvious solution

    Bricks of all kinds exposed to lots of sunlight absolutely become brittle over time

    it seems like it is working. just cover the corner up with a long trim piece connected with hinges so the fit and finish looks good

    The fence is fantastic! So smart.

    Is there a "fake" version of that set? I haven't seen it before if it is out there. Ebay and Paypal really stand behind the consumer so there is no risk of being scammed without recourse by whatever means. That being said, Bricklink is a fantastic resource.

    Most fun set ever as costumes are our favorites. Definitely getting a whole box. Splurging and opening a whole box with your loved ones is a great experience. I think the single cop is marketing genius. More people than ever will bite the bullet to buy a whole box. They need to do it more.

    One way I can think of to get the bars to work would be by using lego string on each side individually tied around each bar. The tracks sound easier for sure

    I would use bars A whole bunch of 3long or 4 long bars

    BrickLink will solve all your future parts problems too.

    Perseverating on negative aspects of legos instead of focusing on all the glorious positive parts of the hobby.

    Anybody can think up a new Lego creation and build it. Imagination is a wonderful thing.

    I was thinking about how much fun participating in the Shiptember event is. Would others be interested in building water based craft (don’t have to be any particular size) over the course of a month just to share with one another. It doesn’t have to be a contest, but it would definitely be a motivation to build. I think it would just promote more building and sharing. I am finding that getting that nudge helps me build faster. Anybody else interested? Obviously I can simply build a ship and share it anytime, but simultaneous group building seems like more fun

    The 8x16 and 10x20 bricks are the biggest square ish thick baseplates (technically bricks) I can think of. There are also some big quarter round pieces...12x12 and 16x16. I really like these huge bricks. Once they are 3 plates high they qualify as a brick

    As a young teenager, I made a giant firecracker and lit it off inside a lego rectangular creation I had made. I tried to run away, but didn't get far enough and had a nice piece of lego scrapnel stuck in the back of my leg. Pulled it out with a little blood but no medical treatment. I think that was the last time I "played" with any legos for almost 30 years.

    I just slapped this Charlie Brown together to get us started

    I wish I had taken decent photos after I finished it too. It really was a fun thing to behold. There were like 300 pirates on it and funny little details everywhere. I promise to take good photos next pirate ship I do. I realize all the details are lost in my photo

    I only snapped a couple of horrible photos of this before taking it apart earlier this year, but just stumbled across them and thought I would post. This ship received additional work after the photo and was really fun to build.

    It is brick built, isn't it?

    Hailfire Droid tank

    tan 45 degree corner slopes ARE available for super cheap if you aren't a purist. If one searched on aliexpress one would find what one needed.

    WONDERFUL!!! I have been working on a significantly larger version of this since visiting the Magic Kingdom in March. I wish I had taken your approach to size.

    There is a new 2x2 macaroni tile piece. You could use 2 of those in conjunction with straight tiles and see how it looks flush mounted. You might be able to raise the tiles up so they overlap that roof(floor) piece for a nice finished look too. You would have to use a couple of the pie slice tiles inside of the macaroni tiles of course i just discovered there is a 4x4 macaroni tile. Didn't realize that even existed. That won't work for you, but good info to know. Thanks for making me look at bl.
  23. Nantucketdink
    you could make a nice flat floor by making a semi circle with bricks and curved slopes, studs not on top.
  24. Nantucketdink
    Various whale bones and Narwhale horns would have been used IMHO.

    I can't see photos in new posts, just url numbers
