  1. Thanks for the feedback. I agree about the lights and I will look at changing them. My original plan was to build it all out of red but I ran out of red pieces, I have pulled another MOC to pieces so I might have enough red now to fix it up :)
  2. I research old sets, read reviews and look at YouTube videos. I also sometimes read a book or watch some TV.
  3. https://www.facebook.com/events/226379770818269/ I LOVE LEGO !!! Do you remember the LEGO Exhibitions in Fitzgeralds and/or Myer ??? The name LEGO is well known and so Brixhibition origins stem from the childhood memories as a boy seeing LEGO exhibits and the realisation that after the success of the first two that it is something that brings a lot of enjoyment and smiles to many of the local brick enthusiasts like me which must keep getting bigger and better. Lets hope we see you at our third annual LEGO fan display in Hobart !!!
  4. Sorry to those who tried to access this yesterday and could not, here are some photos.
  5. I have recently set myself the challenge of designing and building a new body for LEGO Technic set 9398. Here is the end result. As it is very much a work in progress I welcome feedback, comments and suggestions on it. http://paulstechnic.blogspot.com.au/p/xtreme-off-road-utility-truck-new-body.html
  6. No I can't say I do that. All my pieces and sets are sorted by type not age.
  7. Working a new MOC.
  8. Today's delivery :) http://paulstechnic.blogspot.com.au/2013/09/8838-shock-cycle.html
  9. Very cool and nicely built, thanks for posting this.
  10. Very nicely done. This looks very cool.
  11. Well I have decided to sell this, it does not really fit in my collection and I am not that impressed with it.
  12. Wow, excellent work with this. You have given me some great ideas for my own track.
  13. Excellent, I am down in Launceston. Did you know we have a LEGO club here in Tasmania? Here are some links to it: http://www.tazbrick.com/ https://www.facebook.com/TazBrickCollectorsClub
  14. Thanks for the replies. He has already decided that he wants to get in to my theme (Technic) and I have heard he has a list of questions for me when I get back :( I will see what happens and if I can steer him in the right direction.
  15. http://paulstechnic....ember-2013.html These are some photos of my LEGO building / display room as I have it set up at the moment. The yellow shelves are ones I designed and built earlier this year as I could not find any pre-made shelves that were the size I wanted. A page on these can be found here: http://paulstechnic....me-shelves.html My building desk is a 6 foot folding table, it is a good height and wide enough to allow me to build easily. View from the door way Chief building assistant Shelves and building desk Shelves and desk. Laptop is on desk to the side. Certificate from Brixhibition North 2013 and news paper articles about it with me.
  16. That looks very cool. I like the dual rear wheels.
  17. A some what strange question, would you ever "discourage" somebody from taking up the LEGO hobby? Background: At work we have somebody who has a habit of jumping on to what other people are doing. In the past when somebody was talking about fishing he went and purchased a heap of fishing gear to also do it. A few months ago he found out somebody has a collection of guns and now he wants to get in to this too. He gets obsessed with things and does not leave the people above alone now he thinks they are his "friend". His manager has had multiple talks with him about this in the past. I am on leave at the moment but have heard that he is keen to talk to me about LEGO and getting in to it when I return from leave.
  18. Over the past few days I have designing and building a new attachement for the Unimog U400 - Set 8110. Below is a link to my blog where I have a write up, photos and a video of it in action. http://paulstechnic....ish-lifter.html
  19. Has anybody built a rubbish loader for this? I am designing one at the moment and would love to see what other people have come up with.
  20. This set is going to be kept as a display piece :)
  21. Recently I purchased set 9392 - Quad Bike. On building it today I have noticed that one of the stickers is wrong and different to what the building guide shows. I have also checked online and can not find any other sets with this sticker. What the building guide shows: What I have in my set:
