True to form, it seems I missed a whole lot of very interesting talks. Does
anyone know if the slides or a video capture of any of these talks (like the
ones mentioned above) are availible?

Even audio would be great for Jamie's Stressing the elements talk. The speed
build was a great event to be part of but it did mean missing this and the
comercials talk - another which received rave reviews.

Yeah .. I missed a fair bit of the interesting talks due to the speed build too
.. I only managed to catch the last bit of Jamie's talk.

You can download Jamie’s powerpoint presentation for Stressing the Elements

And yes, it was fantastic.

Here's the slides to my talk, which, in retrospect, wasn't half as interesting
as Jamie's.

Calum,
I think you're selling yourself short. I saw your presentation, and have now
seen the slides for Jamie's presentation. They are two different topics and
both are interesting in their own way. Yours was very well organized and
presented. I hadn't heard about the Harborfront project, so it was nice to get
the whole story from someone who participated.

First, thank you, and Jamie, for making these so easily availible on-line, and
having such a nice presentation. Second, I'd say yours was just as interesting
as Jamie's (or probably others), at least to me. The idea of trying to
coordinate something on that scale, under those conditions, is really
interesting. Third, had I known people had this much on-line, I woudl have
expanded my request. So, does anybody else have any presentation materials they
want to throw this way? Please? These are wonderful to read through, even after
the fact.
If you want "not half as interesting", look at all the pre-prepared materials
for the NXT Q&A's. Although watching Bryan try to "moderate" that panel was
fun...

You guys are far too kind :)
I made a point of going to more talks this year and I enjoyed all of
them--Jamie's was really neat to see the other side of building models, to hear
how they are constrained by corporate rules and a quality measure...I also liked
hearing about capital ship building from spacers like Chris Giddens and Adrian
Drake. I don't build space stuff, but it was cool to hear what considerations
these folks put into building these huge yet intricate displays.
I went to an NXT Q&A too...got to really see where the NXT was headed from the
fan side, which was great. It was nice of the MDP to set those up.

I just wanted to thank everyone who was able to make it to my presentations last
weekend. This year's BrickFest will definitely be one that I will always have
fond memories of. It was a real treat to be in such good company with so many
talented builders. You guys really rock.
For those of you who were unable to make it to the Stressing the Elements talk,
I *may* have found someone who has audio of it. Should the recording come out
half decently, I'll try my hardest to add it to the slides already available on
the web.
Of course, none of this will happen for a couple of weeks since I'm currently on
Holiday in New England and will not be back to Billund until Mid-September.
Again, thanks to Joe and all the fine volunteers who really gave us one
fantastic weekend!
jamie :)

I totally agree Jamie. Whenever I get together with other LEGO builders I'm
always astounded not only by how interesting their models are (large and small)
but how interesting the people are as individuals. And no matter how much
you've communicated online, nothing matches actually getting to meet people
face-to-face.

I wasn't able to make it that afternoon, so I'm really happy that you've shared
your presentation. Maybe next year we'll get to see 'Stressing the Elements 2'.
:)
It was nice meeting you. Enjoy your holiday!

Thank you for this insight into the LEGO company approval process for models. My
question is :
So p-less is illegal but is t-less legal ?
If you don't know about these terms, check page 4 :

Wow! Thanks for making your Powerpoint presentation available online! It
offers an interesting insight into some of the tests official sets are put
through.
It also reminds me of many "unusual" builds (most of which I probably won't ever
need), and how elementary my building skills are. :)

Thanks for posting this interesting presentation. I honestly never realized that
the center point of a side mounted stud on a system brick was slightly different
than on a technic brick - although based on some previous building issues I have
encountered it.
Great stuff.
I came across an article from MSC Nastran a few years ago that gave an brief
look at the finite element analysis and upfront virtual prototyping of Lego
elements:
