I'm wanting to build a beer garden modeled after Viktualienmarkt's in
Munich. It will probably be on a 48x48 plate so I'll have room for at least
4-5 large "bushy" trees, but I'm struggling to find inspiration online.
Most of the the trunks I'm seeing are built from square bricks/slopes and
they just don't look right.

The Rivendell set looks like it has some really interesting ones but they need
about 8x the amount of leaves and 2x broader foliage. I know we can't post
links but are there any obvious ones in the lego realm I'm not seeing?

I really, really love the lines of this set. It’s one of the best LEGO has produced
in a long time. I can see myself creating many more of these. I already have
a few more ideas brewing…

Hey,

I recently put together the set mentioned in the subject and had the idea to
add an internal motor to try and make the car motorized. Wondering if anyone
has attempted this before I go at it blind.

My initial thought is that it shouldn't be too complicated. The differential
is easily accessed through the removable engine cover. There might be a big enough
gap in there for me to place a small motor in there. Need to take another look
at the front tires to see where I could set one up for them.

Any ideas or tips on how to get started would be greatly appreciated!

Hi all,

I'm new here and was just wondering if there are people on this forum who
would design a lego set for a fee?

If so please sent me a private message.

Hi,

I think that there are many who, like me, want to build 40703 and/or 40704 with
their existing items.

Therefore I've created created customised instructions for 40703 and 40704
and posted them online here: https://bricksto.build

The instructions roughly follow the same sequence as the original instructions.

40703 - Micro Ninjago City
40704 - Micro Ninjago Docks

I also plan to create 40705 and 40706 as soon as they are released.

Happy building!

Hi there,

I am wanting to create a striped pole that would be used in a Christmas build
as a "North Pole". I wanted to create the stripes angled rather than
straight and then possibly put a light brick in the top surrounded by transparent/translucent
blue bricks. However, I am struggling to create the stripes in a cube.

Can anyone recommend the best way to do this, or suggest which brick number(s)
I could use?

Many thanks!

Hello

I am looking for instructions to build a LEGO Rover 25.

I don't think that Lego have ever produced anything like this, the closest
I can find is the Land Rover, and I've been on a search engine hunt for any
MOCs and haven't found anything (and keep getting results for Space Rovers).

Can anyone point me in the right direction please? I have had a play with the
Studio, but I'm finding it a bit out of my skills set.

Thank you

A display model of a pilot boat? No, it is not flying. Read more about the pilot
boat on the link.

If you like it, I would appreciate your vote.

I am a skipper on a pilot boat myself. And i wanted a model of a pilot boat to
display on my desk. I could not find one. And beeing born in Denmark LEGO bricks
is a obvious way to build one myself.

Hello,
I’m new to this forum and someone suggested I post something on here since I’m
needing some help with a MOC build. I’m recreating a bouquet of mine, and the
last flower I need is a Calla Lily! I was able to find all the other flowers/greenery
but Lego hasn’t come out with something like this… yet! Could someone please
help me with the pieces, or point me in the right direction?

Thank you,
Kiara

I have been working on a fighter jet MOC. The overall design is done for the
most part, but I have been a bit undecided on the best look for the jet engine
nozzles at the back of the plane.

I have attached two screen grabs of the nozzles. I would like to know which set-up
people like best.

I display all my LEGO models on display stands, whether they be original sets
or MOCs. Among them is Lego set 75135 Obi-Wan's Jedi Interceptor. This set
is somewhat heavy toward the front and is difficult to balance on it's stand
because of that. The image below shows the stand type I currently use and an
alternate that I am attempting to design for it.

The black stand on the left is my current standard design. The red one on the
right is the alternate. The problem with the original stand design is that it
has too much flexibility in the column that supports the head. The model is too
wobbly when on the stand and can topple forward with the slightest touch.

I am thinking that I can make a sturdier stand, if I replace the technic connectors
with round 2 x 2 bricks. That should make for a stiffer support column that wouldn't
allow the model to wobble so much. The thing is with the current alternate design,
is that the model would be displayed level with the surface it is standing on.

I would like to have the model tilted upward at the front. Any ideas what I could
add at the top of the stand to give the model a slight upward tilt at it's
front?
