Re: Round Tower designs
Does anyone have an example of a round tower with the 1x1 cylinders and 1x2 bricks arranged in a circle design connected to a wall? I have the wall and the round tower, but don't know how to connect them.

Re: Round Tower designs
I use hindge bricks to connect the round tower to square walls, just put the hindge where the 2x2 would be:The Shadow Knight wrote:Does anyone have an example of a round tower with the 1x1 cylinders and 1x2 bricks arranged in a circle design connected to a wall?

Other times I just don't connect them, cause if you take the pics right, you can't really tell.

And, my own question: Can somebody tell me how to link on this stupid forum! This doen't work <a href=ULR> </a>, I've already tried.

Re: Round Tower designs
You can also just build the wall straight into the side of the round tower, but you'll have to use 1x1 rounds next to where the bricks go into the tower, to allow it to connect. Or just replace a column of 1x2s with corner bricks, and then build off that.

Re: Round Tower designs
I have been trying to make a round tower using panels for a while and i have finally found a way to connect the different parts from the inside.

Re: Round Tower designs
How would you connect a round tower to the ground?
I want to put a round tower into my castle,but I need to know how to connect it to the ground since it is, well you know, round

You can just put some bricks underneath four of the headlight bricks close to the bottom of the tower to attach it to the ground.
