(...) Very cool! There's something very satisfying about bringing your own virtual instructions to life. And, just think, not only do you get to assemble the Lego pieces into the puzzle pieces, but when you're done you get to assemble the puzzle (...) (22 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.build, FTX)

When critiquing I try to do a few things, most importantly provide encouragment, for some people its a big thing to present their new MOC to the world. I try to gauge the level of the builder (which isn't really an age thing) from the tone of their (...)

Hi all, A few months ago I created (virtually) a Lego version of a wooden puzzle (a cube later converted to a sphere). When we visited LegoLand Billund, I was lucky to find many brown and tan tiles to construct a real Cube (dimension 20 studs, 12 (...)

(...) Critiquing is tough.

I don't think I'd recommend it. Then again, (...) (22 years ago, 24-Sep-04, to lugnet.people.teens, lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, FTX)
