Everything LEGO thread!

Fancy...

 

Narrowed the front of my blue Ford(ish) tractor from 4 studs to 3 studs. I think it looks much better this way. And of course, I'm short 21 parts to build it...

 

Glorious. I missed out on all those sets.

 

Never mind, ended up making some more adjustments to the rear fender and cab. Glad I didn't put in a parts order yet. Old is on the left, new is on the right.

 

With moms passing last month (she lived a long full life) she wanted the kids to get some inheritance. It's one of those things you don't really think about until after everything is over and things get hashed out.
I of course am going to be investing some of it, but knowing my mom, she would want me to have some fun with a small part of it, so that means filling out some of my very long standing Lego UCS Star Wars

- Poe Damerons Black 1 X-wing #75102 (2015)
- B-wing #10227 (2012)
- Y-wing #75181 (2018)
- Millennium Falcon #75192 (2017)
- Star Destroyer #75252 (2019)
- MOC set Tiderium Shuttle
- Vader's Super Star Destroyer #10221 (2011)

With the retirement of all but 1 of the sets and most of them being some of the largest sets out there it's going to hurt a bit, but I will worth it to fill the same passion I had a kid.

 

I can tell you’re excited!

 

It’s tough losing a parent. I’m glad you’ve found a way to remember her.

 

Use the Force tool.

The other way is to use a pair of tweezers or a finish nail holder to grab the pin, and push the piece onto it.

 

You could try using a thimble. Plastic or rubber would probably be best

 

X100 long technic pins have arrived!

Time to get my AT-AT on (again)

Benny is highly unimpressed with the progress on the AT-AT so far. Nap time interrupted......

 

Love the kitty!

 

I'm trying to finish this very delicate space station, and the next set has arrived. As a former owner of a yellow Jeep Wrangler, I'm excited to build this Technic Set, even if it's not the newest and most advanced set, putting these together has really helped me stay calm and relax during the day.

Please ignore my supervisor napping in the window.

 

Love the supervisor!!!

 

The Corsair



The folding wing assembly is a bit delicate, there was a drop or two of cyanoacrylate used to hold them in place.

And the Sikorsky Blackhawk, bags 1 and 2.

 

lolz

 

With the general on site, the AT-AT crew is tense. The commander is getting anxious for completion..........

Must stay on schedule

 

It’s done.
