After becoming a parent, I’ve started to wonder what the best way to approach storing/displaying my Lego collection would be moving forward. I’ve currently moved everything to either a glass display case or shelves that are 5+ feet off of the ground. Naturally, I’ll only allow my children to play with Duplo until they are old enough.…Read more

That stained glass window does look really cool. Thank you for sharing.

While I’m unable to attend today’s meeting, I wanted to share a MOC I made that was a re-imagining of a set from 2012.

The Lego 10224 Town Hall was released in 2012. When seeing pictures of it, I always thought that it was Lego’s attempt at making a church for the modular building series without actually making a church. Therefore for…Read more

The idea came up to make it into smoke coming out of the top of a volcano.

I’d also like to participate. However, I don’t have anything Pittsburgh or America themed to contribute.

I have a few custom modular style buildings I’ve been working on. I just finished a corner tea shop as well as a dentist’s office if anyone else wants to put together a street.

I actually started a project like this several weeks ago. Everything is written in JavaScript so feel free to view the source code and add to it.

I set it up so that users can individually pick which colors are available. I figured this would be useful for Lugbulk, or seeing what…Read more

While other similar tools exist, this one allows you to generate a mosaic using only the color pieces you select instead of the entire…Read more

Honestly, even if we had white, lt grey, dark grey, and black, then there would be a wide range of pictures that could be made in grey-scale.

Any additional color would be a bonus.

At $0.01 each, we’re looking at $23.04 to cover a 48×48 base plate.

Its a rather expensive $700 for 500 minifigs, but I thought it might be worthwhile for those of you who regularly split orders with others.

Which ones are you considering selling?

Jason looked up the official list of color names, and Sand Yellow is in fact dark tan

Thank you for checking, I knew I read this somewhere.

He also got at least two more boxes of the light bley profile brick, and was surprised that people weren’t showing up to buy them like we did when we cleaned out the first box.

I’m stopping tomorrow a…Read more

If I stopped this weekend, would anyone know the likely status of the 1×2 dark Grey Tile or the 1×2 Sand Yellow bricks? Should I expect there to be any left?

Though I probably can’t make it till Sunday. Do they usually run out very quickly?

I just signed up, and wanted to personally thank all of you for suggesting the sand green 1x1s. I was really ecstatic when I found them in stock.

I live a few hours from the Ross Park location, but I try to stop by every few months or so. Did the Dark Red Profile bricks ever come in? I’d gladly make a trip just for those.
