I want one of those!
Hehe,
Very cool.
I'm sure your co-workers will think twice before they try to steal a pen from your guarded tower, and one with knight and mounted catapult to boot.

wow - seven replies overnight! thanks.
Ok
1. DM - I am not worried about my co-workers stealing my knight, but I AM keeping an eye or two on my clients.....
2. Sluggo - thats part of the reason I built it. My pens do have a tendency to wander.
3. Moom - I added another layer of bricks over the door and put a platform in to make the pens higher. You're right. It looks better. And office politics being what they are, Tina and Ze have formed an alliance and are making threatening noises, however because I have a corner location I think I will be ok. If not - well I will just have to bring support from home. My Siege engine throws a mean spear, and the pointy bits hurt.
4. Bruce - the first version I made had a drawer for post it notes, but it was huge, so I redesigned it with a small size in mind. And yes in a Real Castle the catapult would come crashing down. But since you wouldnt have pens the size of fir trees sticking out of the top anyway... I thought what the heck.
5. Thanks Troy
6. Thanks David
7. Thanks Nik
Thanks to everyone, and several people at my office have already asked me to create destop sculptures for them. I told them to provide the lego and I would build...

Aaaahhh... inspiration.... I love it. I love this site. It's nice to share. When my desk at work gets reconfigured, I'm gonna see about getting something like this.

This looks like a bucket of fun! How far does it shoot those death-dealing bolts?
