It’s been a long time since the Buddhism spread from Indian to worldwide, especially in China. The 1st memory building was named “STUPA” in Indian to memory the Buddha, stored the replics and chanting, mostly it is a tomb of Buddha. When foreigners landed in South China, them were taught the 8 corner tower pronounced “Pagoda”. The word was collected in the dictionary till today, a minus change is to be “Chinese Pagoda” to mean the towers in Asian-Pacific area. Today Chinese people call Pagoda as “Ta” since the word was invented by Ge, Hong in Jin Dynasty. (around AD 300) I selected 6 typical types of Pagoda to be LEGO model, the superstructure of Pagoda can be separated by 3 parts as the picture below: Base, Body, Cha; 1. Basic Stupa The model reflects the main characters of Stupa which is the resource of all pagoda, stupa and etc. Flat base; Hemispherical body; Upside Lotus petal; The “CHA” of tower; 2. Lamaist Stupa The Lamaist stupa was heralded in hemispherical tomb in Fo-kuang Ssu in the latter part of the tenth century. The earliest Lamaist stupa was built in Xizang, China. The model reflects the main characters of Lamaist Stupa Flat and thin base; Higher base (Shu – mi - tso); Aquarius body “Belly” (The variant of hemispherical body); Truncated cone Bottle “Neck” Top “umbrella”; 3. One storied Pagoda The One storied Pagoda may be the 1st culture combined pagoda in Chinese. It mixed the different architecture elements from both Chinese and Indian. It more likes a Chinese pavilion with solid walls and stone or brick roof. The top of body adopts a building technique called “Corbelled brick courses”, they have 2 ways to be shown, positive and negitive. Using the LEGO parts to build this is a real challenge. The picture will show you how. You can also see the “Cha” part is real like the Stupa. 4. Multi-Storied Pagoda I build the 2 storied pagoda only for example. The real Multi-storied Pagoda usually looks similar with the Multi-Eaved Pagoda. The key of distinguish is to see the highest eaves, if they are real close, the pagoda shall be Muti-Eaved, others are Multi-Storied. 5. Bustling Pagoda The bustling pagoda normally use very complex decoration outside, the body sits on a very high Shu – mi – tso. Some pagoda allows people walk inside to the top. 6. Multi-Eaved Pagoda As the name shows, it has several levels of eaves, I built this model in order to show the extreme case, the eaves are very close. I also use a wheel as the “umbrella” part. Through the building progress of these 6 models, you will have a Buddhism trip in Chinese. You can con tact me via jerryyao77@msn.com for the full instructions with a little bucks. Enjoy it! Jerry

"KUBO and two Strings", the animation movie is so fantastic, I loved it so much. So I try to build the characters by LEGO pieces, and try to make them as small as I can. Here we go. I will show you 1 by 1, first is KUBO. i kept the shape of his mouth just like that he was telling the story. You can look at the back, I used a spider to present the bug image. When KUBO carried the two strings, he looks like this. The photo he taken with Mini-Hanzang. And the "Mother Monkey" And the "Father Bug" Let's look at the size compare. Father and Son Mother and Child The family I used the unique building technique to build the heads, and make them close to 7.5 similar with they are in the movie. Front looking The Back looking And the short video for introduction: Thanks for watching, See you next model.

One day I went to the natural museum with my family, my wife asked whether I can build some insect with LEGO parts, and the goliathus was picked. I spent 2 days to build it, and for more fun I put it on the photo frame which from IKEA. Let's see how it looks. When it was took out from the frame, it looks like a real insect. Front view Back view, you can see all the studs are removed. The photo frame is from IKEA, Gunnabo, 13x18cm The introduce video Thanks for watching.

Hello, this is the 1st motorcycle MOC I made. Inspired by the color "Medium Azure", the major parts from the Simpsons House and the Technic set 42050 Dragster. The photos Front Side look Back look The detail and other picture can be found in the video introduction as below:

Thanks for the replies. G_phy made the little adjustment on the weight down there, so it went more smooth. Adding the motor will cause the size and other mechanical problem. I tried, but running not well.

Inspired by the Kinetic Device the "Lift", made by Jennifer Townley. I made it by Lego Parts. The pictures Side show A little detail And the most important, the video, the link is attached for backup. The mpd file was attached for anyone interested :) 999-Lego Kinetic Device with chains.zip

Thanks for your comments. The reason of white color set is the head part, otherwise I would like it to be tan. Because I am not good at working on the sticker stuff, I didn't use it. I like the printed parts :)

Amazing!

B1 Battle Driod in Lego version, based on the 1/6 scaled driod model in 30cm size produced by Sideshow. The Lego version is around 55cm high, and 1/4 scaled. Use the ballon parts as the head and fully studs removed techniques. The other highlights are the gun, the backpack, the flexible neck and the flexible antenna. 3 poses as the photoes presented. 1: Fully equiped with gun and backpack at the back; 2: Gun in hands as the guard or battle position; 3: Stand-by pose in the vehicles. Hope you like it! Yes, it is not a perfect version. Because the color, the hands, maybe the illegal building techinques, but it is a start as you all know.

This weekeng I joined the brick event at Shanghai (China), which organized by LeleZhen LUG. LelezhenLUG is from the largest Lego Fans Forum in China, the site address is www.lelezhen.com . They had an opportunity sponsered by the coming of LEGO Discovery Center in Shanghai. I'm the member of ChinaLUG, so I attended the activity as the volunteer. Let's have a look at the construction work back of the house. We spent the whole day to recover the USS Enterprise from Startrek designed by one fan from Guangzhou. Till 19:00 at that night, the huge castle was shipped to site with the builder and his family. Then after another few hours, all things were set. After 22:00 o'clock, the construction work of layout was allowed to begin in the main hall of the mall. The showcases were installed For the huge castle and USS Enterprise, due to the large size, we moved them on 1 plate at one time. (Fortunately, they standed as a whole. ) All the things were placed well till 2:00, we left the cases locked. We were back at 9:30 next morning, others which came from Nanjing were arrived, including a huge size crane. Under erecting Everthing were ready till 11:00, I shoted the show on Youtube without editing. still don't know how to insert the video, I attached the link for your information. I post some site photoes. This is one champion of site building challege. The site building challenge is ongoing. The focus We also set the bulk area for kids The desied eyes (Lego is still abit of expensive in China market.) So, that's the first report of the brick event in China. Wish you like it. Thanks for watching.

Yes, unfortunately, it does have the balance problem when you want lift somthing like the container. It just can be the function sample presentation.

Hello, I am not sure the name of this MOC is correct or not. I named it "Container Handler" which lift the containers at the harbor or storage area in the custom. The number of all parts for this MOC is 198 pieces, it could be less if I have enough time. It includes 5 manual functions as below: Move forward and backward (Obviously each van shall have.) Direction turnable at rear Arm extension Arm Lift Container hold claw turnable Container Hold Claw tight and loose This is the sample for the original. Her we go. Hope you like it. Jerry

Really Cool model, good looking and full function!

It is glad to you like it, I added the video link.

Hi, Polo-Freak, You may see some of them in FL, here is the link. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jerryyao77/sets/72157633445123411/

Model Finished Dated: 2013.5.8 Power: 2xRC, RC unit Model Size: 48(L)x26(W)x22(H) Studs Weight: 1.731KgGear Ratio: 20 to 12 (With some help, it changed to 12 to 20, now it is fast.) The original thought is to equip the RC unit to 42000, but I had not got 42000 until Hot rod finished. So I decided to build something to learn how to equip the RC unit, it started from the Lamborghini model finished by Crowkiller. I built the front and back rear, connected them with the RC unit. When I tried to equipped the 5292, I found the rear was so higher that Lamborghini could not be finished. I searched some higher rear car model, and found this one. It looks like some kind of HOT ROD, let's build it. Finished model Install the antenna, open the door. Bottom view The skeleton Compare with the technic minifig Interior fit out Fake engine Short video, will come back with the new video soon.

The core is not LEGO's. My idea is to use the available material and combine with LEGO to build the music box. The core can be replaced by other musics which can be bought from the market.

Guys, today I bring you the lego music box to celebrate my wife's birthday! Thanks for her supporting on the way of LEGO. Firstly, the front view. The right side view to show the cake and the happy face signature which always used by my wife. And the left view, not much highlight. The back view shows the gears group, to conque the tolerance, I add the handle. The bottom view shows the gear to start the heart of the nusic box. On the surface of the music box there are the red heart and mini carousel. And two 45 degree view for the model. Let's open the box to see the core. The common music box core bought from taobao.com. The music is optional. The last is the video. Not sure my input is correct or not. The video I uploaded is on tudou, not youtube. Please help on this. http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/5V4fUWNuLPU/

I prefer the model Jovel made. It is indeed the fastest, use 2 L motors for driving.
