I've got some more of my ship finished. And in good time, too. I have a 4H meeting tonight. Anyways, I started work on the upper cabin. Here are a few looks: Excuse me, your highness, where is the bathroom? Just go over the edge. And, if you mind, I'm trying to watch the seagulls Sorry you had to see that! Along with the cabin, I am already putting up the masts. Take a look: More to come. Keep the Comments and Questions coming! Or else!

Funny you should say that. I, for one, am very connected to my European background. My dad's side comes from Prussia and my mom's side comes from Niedersachsen and various Scottish lords. Since I am closely connected to these roots, I enjoy reading of the country's heroes in books and on the internet.

I made but another update last night. I put a roof on the cabin and made a staircase to the top. I got the idea for the staircase from the Grand Emporium. It's a tight fit for your foot, but you can't have all the luxuries in life. Stay tuned!

I really haven't been on Eurobricks for that long, but I did know who Zorro was. I do miss 'im. I made this little vignette a little while ago at Christmastime. If he were still alive, I'd bet he would have liked to see it. Rest in Peace, Zorro. Rest in peace.

Though, I am not a railway engineer, I want to work on the railway as soon as I graduate from college. I'm thinking either Tyseley Loco Works, or maybe St. Pancras in London.

Well, you handsome dog, my first train set was a Union Pacific GP7 with a boxcar, gondola, tanker, and a caboose. I later got a small ATSF shunter to help out with loads.

I first was into LEGO when I turned three. My older brother got a brick bucket and I enjoyed making cars with all the different colored bricks. When I turned 11, I received my first train, the 7897 Passenger train.

I'm back! It's been so nice here in the Midwest recently, I just had to go out and enjoy the great weather. Thus, the build has been flowing like frozen honey. I have, though, made another update. Ladies and gentlemen: I just put the front mast on, and put a little cabin in the front. Does anyone know what the cabin in the front is called? Well, in the mean time, see you! Always entertaining, always inspiring, always:

Hello, all. I was just thinking (as I usually do about things) about my first train set, a Union Pacific GP7. That got me to wondering: Have any of you out there had any other train sets beside the ones made by LEGO? If you did, please post the set below. Always entertaining, always wondering, always:

I haven't been able to update recently because of speech clashing in with my other schedules. It is too nice today to do an update, but just keep your pants on. I'll update this build very soon.

I made a few a lot more updates this evening . To start us off, Holzenfauler would like to show you his brand new office. And also, his map and collection of beer. What do you expect? I am a German (no racial stereotypes intended)! Lastly, the side of the ship. Does anyone know what it's called? Well, that's enough for tonight. I need a bath.

Nice idea, but I'd have to wait for Christmas to come back again. Way too long to wait. I can see the extra gear on the back wheel. I think I'll try that when I get home. Thanks everyone for all your help.

I just got the PF stuff for my Emerald Night last Christmas. Now, though, it's running less like an A3 and more like a kid on a tricycle. Now, for the $100 question: "How do I make my Emerald Night go faster?" Please feel free to post your answers below. Always entertaining, always pondering, always:

AAA Battery Box (88000) vs. Rechargeable Battery Box (8878)
Sir E Fullner replied to legotrainfan's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Go with the rechargeable. It may be expensive, but so are batteries. The triple-A Battery Box eats batteries like a crocodile! -
Just looking in that kitchen makes me hungry Mmm...chicken fingers... All in all, great design, great idea. It reminds me of the old depot in West Point.

I don't think it's possible to make a layout like that. LEGO doesn't have their points at 180º, thus you need to construct it in a reversing loop. To get ideas, click here. Hope this helps.

I'm back, and I think that I said in the top to keep the comments & questions coming. Any-who, I'd bet that you are wondering why I am making a Brandenburg ship, and not a French one, Dutch one, English one, or Spanish one. Well, here's why: I have ancestry along the Oder River in Northeast Germany. My great-great-great-great-great-great uncle was mayor of a fishing village near the Oder. My family came to live in the U.S. because Friedrich Wilhelm IV, ruler of Prussia at the time, was making them join the military and become Calvinist, even though they were already Lutheran. My great-great-great grandfather, George Wilhelm, along with his children (his wife died on the ship) travelled on the Steamship Ocilla and landed at Ellis Island, then traveled onwards to Horicon, Wisconsin, where my great-great grandfather Frank was born. Then when Frank was just a baby, Wilhelm pulled up stakes and settled along the Elkhorn River. However, I'm getting off topic, so-back to the post. Holzenfauler would like to show you the back of the ship. Take it away, Holzie! As above, keep the C's & Q's coming!

Caution: These images in the link below contain spoilers to the 1594 Shakespeare Play "Romeo & Juliet." You have been warned. Hello, folks. Seeing that St. Valentine's Day is coming, I want to share with you some scenes from one of the greatest love stories of all time: Romeo & Juliet Since the files are too large to be shown here, and I am feeling too lazy to downsize them, click here.

See, all of you daft Twilight Fans? This is what a real Vampire looks like. Not some stupid jock in emo clothing. And definitely not some b**ch into emo crap.

Second Wave of Minifigs on CustomMinifigs.com!
Sir E Fullner replied to Omicron's topic in Minifig Customisation Workshop
Nice! You know, that handsome drill sergeant looks very familiar. I wonder who he could be... -
I'd like it better if it were the girls in the shower and the guys peeking in.

Nice Marina. Do you think that they'll have a girl in a bikini?

Another day, another update. Since I don't have a speech meet this week, I'll probably be able to get a bit more done this week. Anyways, let's cut to the chase. We have a new helper for the build, every one please welcome the Elector of Brandenburg, Friedrich III. I found another picture of the ship, and I realized that there is a lion on the front, and I accidentally forgot the front part. And I'm thinking of using this piece for the sides extending out of the ship. What do you think? Well, that's all for now. Keep the comments & questions coming!

Sorry for the wait. My school's speech team made me miss a few weeks of work. But, anyways, here is another update. Joining me now is my fiancée, Miss Anna. And for all the doubting Thomas's out there, that torso on her is NOT drawn on, but I found it after clicking on something in the tab on the right of the screen. And as you guessed, my torso IS drawn on. I just put a roof on the gun deck and am now putting on the top decks Here is a view of the fresh new rudder. Stay tuned, but in the mean time, feel free to comment and question. "Toodles!" WOH! Why did I just say that?
