Nice to have you here.

Now you can make your Dad look like an amateur builder. Oh wait, that was my son.

Really cool! Is there an established template for converting minifig designs into these brick-built giants, or does everyone just wing it? I think we all started with the instructions provided for this set: http://www.brickset.com/detail/?set=3723-1 and then modified to create our unique designs. A...

Yep he is mine! I finally got around to uploading more pics including:

All that way and I don't know if we met F2F? I am sooo bad connecting online names to real names.

Thanks to all the admins for all their work over the years. CC and I are of approximately the same vintage in the AFOL world and it has been a dependable and enjoyable part of my day for the last decade. I look forward to another great ten years. Thanks also to the members of the forum who, whether ...

Not clear on that, sorry my bad.

I don't really do "stand-alone". Maybe I'll get there someday, but not just yet.

What we have is EK's section, BiggerJim's, Thomas' and mine. My small section (now called St. Piggin's) is not part of the layout? :( Sorry the details were sort of buried at the bottom of a post quite a ways back: @Josh: I will be bringing my cloister (48x48) with pig/cow monks + some landscaping ...

I was obscenely pleased that I was able to complete my fig without resorting to BL. I only had to "borrow" my son's stash of basic black brick, but he owes me.

I would think you could pack it with the head removed and then just attach it on the turntable once you arrived? I plan to remove the head and the arms. The shoulder joint seems likely to fail if roughly handled so it just seems easier to remove them. In fact I have been removing the arms rather th...

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7433/9577963028_17eef8c433_n.jpg I never realized how few black 2x bricks I have! The black side is mostly made up of 2x2 black bricks! But at least I'm building early this year! @Josh: I will be bringing my cloister (48x48) with pig/cow monks + some landscaping (48x32...

Not many around like football...I think we can count the number in the single digits. Really? Well, I guess if you are talking about pointy-ball. :wink: As a fan of Football played with the feet I would suggest something like Blockhead United, Brickchester City or for an even more Euro-flair perhap...

My BA was in history (over 20 years ago now - yikes) with a lot of courses from our Medieval Studies department.

And there is always Brasso. Taa daa! double-sided no more.

Assuming I will be there (80% right now) I think the lunch sounds great.
