I haven't still found out what building technic you use.
I thought of technic bricks with pins,
but that doesn't do the job (not for now, not with me, any way :-)

Can you enlighten us all with your insights,
or do you want to wait until your whole street block is finished?

Keep on building!

Yes, it's a very effective and impressive wall technique. I too was
curious how
it was done. Then I found this on brickshelf.

Hello Allister,

I've found it as well, but thanks for pointing it out!
Can't be an accident that it shows up right now:
inspiration is tickled everywhere, I suppose.

The only way to work 'around the corner' is - i think -
when you use the combination of technic bricks (1x1)
and the modified brick 1x1 with studs on 4 sides.

My first attempt that worked fine (only the front of the wall)
was a little less complicated than the solution marakoeschtra
(showed in your link: bw-1 and bw-2) has come up with.
I stacked headlight bricks and then covered them with
modified tiles with one stud. On these came the last tiles.
It's the same effect, but you use more bricks (the modified tiles).

I will definitely use this building technic showed by cre8ivejuan
(=Jonathan Eric Hunter) inone of my own MOCS.

It's so nice :-)!!

Best regards and play on!

I agree that the only way to get around the corner is to use 1x1 technic bricks with the modified 1x1 brick but how do you then match the height of the studs? I cheated and used a half height tyco plate under the headlight bricks but it just seems (...) (19 years ago, 20-Sep-05, to lugnet.build.arch)
