That's an impressively large Town Hall for sure! I think it works well with two sets combined and good job with the pillars. Have you made any changes the interior?, and, I guess you've got two Mayors running things now - that isn't going to end well
Thanks for sharing it with us!
That's a good deal - I'm looking at a grand to get from KC to the UK
Thanks for linking to the pictures you took - I really like the Angor Wat with the elephants - they're excellent.... and the Taj Mahal Wow! You must have a suitcase full of memories form the trip!
I like how they done the SNOT green facade on the Apartment level (1st floor) with those 1x2 and 1x3's arranged vertically and facing each other on either side of each of the windows. Good technique.
...still can't find that damn seagull though...
You might want to reach out to that two-hour away LUG and see what their experience has been. Perhaps creating a satellite LUG to them could be a good starting point. I do understand your problem though as I'm about 90 minutes away from mine (KCLUG). I joined them on Facebook a month or two ago. I haven't yet had an opportunity to attend any of their meetings, but they're friendly, open and seem to be thriving.
No, I think the best quality a storage system can have is flexibility - as the inventory changes (as you build and take apart MOCs and as BL orders come in) you may need to switch out smaller containers for larger ones and vice versa. I change mine fairly frequently, but I keep them in the same position around my desk so that I know where the Plates are and where the Tiles are. I might forget what they're actually stored in but I know they're at.
I don't think I've read a single (serious) complaint about this Modular. Maybe that's the honeymoon period we're all in at the moment, but it looks fantastic and I can't wait for its release.
