wiping a Lego box with alcohol, good or bad?
Peppermint_M replied to ks6349's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Just shared my tips for dusting. I own a lot of books and without hiring a staff to take them on/off shelves often enough, a weekly dust is necessary! . Plus, I work in a logistics based field with a warehouse (medical/therapeutic adjacent), they are dusty places and we can get some really dusty boxes and bags that need cleaning up before taking out (Sometimes, the stack of "obsolete" parts get urgently required so we're hauling out a 20 year old BNIB motor to install because the supplier won't support spare parts). If the layer is thick enough to have a colour, 100% advise a dry dust first or else you get sludge. Sometimes, it is a lot quicker to use the air hose to get the box cleared before it goes out (though, technically the hoses are to blow water out of metal tube parts to prevent rust/pooling water in cleaned/refurbed equipment) can't go taking warehouse dust to places where the health-compromised are. That is the great thing about a community, we can all share experiences and talk about something, something others might call nonsense or insanity. -
Brand synergy achieved!

I have found my building board game I mentioned way back for the planned 2020 event. I can bring that along and see what we think? -
[MOC] Hanging Temple of the Big Foot Buddha
Peppermint_M replied to Berthil's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Blimey, this is fantastic! It really captures the spirit of the theme and characters, with excellent details and techniques to modernise and build up the scale. Cheers for sharing this beauty, ps you might want to keep your eyes peeled, this is a jubilee year for Johnny Thunder and Co. An event I will not let pass without something to celebrate. -
wiping a Lego box with alcohol, good or bad?
Peppermint_M replied to ks6349's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Those look very fun to use. I have no idea what the PSI is of the airlines in the workshop at my job is, but they sure clean out dust fast. -
Adventurers items wanted
Peppermint_M replied to Jacob S's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Sorry, there is a specific part of the forum for buying and selling, inaccessible to those without the required post count/reputation. Stick around, participate and enjoy the boards, you can build up the post count required to buy from and trade with members quite quickly. -
wiping a Lego box with alcohol, good or bad?
Peppermint_M replied to ks6349's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Any liquid makes dust into a sludge. This is why there are many many brands and types of dusting cloth/dusters that are all dry use. A dry dusting cloth, canned air at a decent distance from the box, any one of those dusters that get marketed as "dust magnets" are all much safer than using liquid to clean a cardboard box. A soft brush can help is any creases or flaps/folds have caught dust. Seriously, do not introduce any liquids. Just wiping it with clean and dry hands is better than liquids. -
[MOC] The Cloud Chaser, Fantasy Airship
Peppermint_M replied to Cara's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
This is insanely good! The construction is as interesting as the aesthetic and the shapes you have achieved are fantastic. Thanks so much for sharing it here and I hope things go well in the design contest- 4 replies

I have already had a request for the Captain! (My brother in law practically tackled me, once my sister had confirmed I was visiting the LEGO House). I will take a good look at what is around here in the UK, or any good deals to share.

Certainly something for discussion in person too. A bit of a Staff Meeting maybe? Just to catch up and such. -
EB Event 2023 information topic
Peppermint_M replied to Holodoc's topic in LEGO Events and User Groups
I too can present on the subject (dusts of my past crown...) yours sounds interesting. We have some Science Museum branded sets here in the UK that may be similar. -
EB Event 2023 information topic
Peppermint_M replied to Holodoc's topic in LEGO Events and User Groups
As I mentioned for 2020, I have some sets available for prizes. I am able to bring them along. However I am still without accommodation I have one idea for a contest: How you spent lockdown! -
Can confirm: my Facebook feed was filled with Harry Potter book day dress up from all my old school friends (because all but three of "the girls" are mothers to school age kids now.) It still has global appeal. Sets still have a market. Unpopular opinion: there needs to be some kind of battle royale theme to cash in on the popularity of Fortnite etc. Mainly because I want to have lots of bonkers characters and battlefield sets.

So, new Indy sets are popping up on the internet and of course, they will fully supply adventurers whether you retro-fit it with Johnny Thunder in place of Dr. Jones or populate it with others. The Disney 100 CMF series has a new compass piece.

Majestic! Really looks the part for a sport craft while sticking to the Atlantis aesthetic, looks like it could have been deployed from one of the larger vessels of the theme. Thanks for sharing.
