PAB Cup Blender

Post by man at ye old well »

Hello all,

It has been a while since I have posted, but I just wanted to share my latest MOC with you.

[url=https://flic.kr/p/CVy3yS][img]https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1572/24234870 ... 6734_n.jpg[/img][/url]

A fellow LUG member inspired me to build something using a pick a brick cup. I came up with the idea of making a blender.

Comments and criticism always welcome.

This is awesome. I wouldn't have even known it was LEGO at first look. You should leave this on display in your kitchen. How is the handle attached on the side?

Thanks for the replies! It doesn't look out of place in my kitchen at all, and since I don't have an actual blender...

The handle is held on using [url=http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/cata ... 1#T=C&C=11]this piece[/url] attached to a normal [url=http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/cata ... 1#T=C&C=11]magnet[/url] and then add another magnet on the inside of the cup. The handle can support of the weight of the cup without the lid on.

The blender is so well constructed, I thought it was a real blender. Then I saw the banana and the apple then thought, "So he just built two fruit?" Then when I noticed that the blender was actually built from the LEGO pick a brick cups along with standard parts, I was amazed. Well done.
