How to build LEGO® Dogs! This week, I had fun building LEGO® dogs. Yes, it was me. Gresham did build the puppies to go with them, but I was mostly the builder on this project! (I find that LEGO®’s are strangely relaxing…) These dogs are not any particular breed, mainly because brown and tan are […]

There are lots of different ways to angle walls, but one of the simplest is using hinge bricks. Thats what this post explains.

Long way to go, but we're committed all the same. Time to see what happens.

[Edit: September 2nd 2016] I have finally gotten around to extending this model in the direction of Kongens Nytorv and Nyhavn which are two very popular destinations of Copenhagen for both tourists and the citizens. Ill put a picture both here and also with a comment later in this thread. Lots of...

Ancient Greece has always fascinated me. I studied their language in high school, and this year I visited Greece itself. And although I've been fond of their architecture since a long time, I was impressed by everything I saw there. People say that Greece is just a pile of ancient rocks. But I say that pile of rocks is quite a sight. This inspired me to build some columns in Lego. The Dorian order is very typical for Greece, but not much of a challenge for Lego. I had a go at the Ionian…

Two ideas to fill in the inside of piece 48092 Please note that 3 parts are NOT fixed on the baseplate underneath or on snot parts yet.

In set 31036, Toy & Grocery shop, a door is placed at an angle (see step 23 in the instructions for the primary model). How did they make the angle? It's not a 3-4-5 triangle. In Step A we see that a 2x4 can be placed on a grid of studs in two ways. This is because the two diagonals between the corner studs are of equal length. Spacers (1x1 plates/round plates) are usually necessary to mount a plate in the second fashion. In Step B we can see that a 2x4 can again be placed on a grid of studs…

Probably a bit easier than what Peter did. Ribbing aside it is very easy to forget that bars provide a really easy way to offset things and reverse studs. They're not useful for all situations but they're a handy piece to keep in mind when doing SNOT.

To be honest I´m really fond of the technics I used in this one.
