No doubt about it- it was the 950 fork lift in 1979

Again, the 950 fork lift gets the honor

   and/or ...inspired you to raise the sophistication and complexity of your building?

As John Neal has posted, it was finding BrickLink and how it made it easier to get the parts I need thats allowed my models to be more complex.

   What LEGO set took your building to the next level?
I want to say the 950 again but I have to look back at the nearly two decades since the purchase of that set (and there have been a lot since). Every set moves me to the next level of building, to what degree varies. The Technic (then Expert Builder) elements were just so new to the 8 yr old I was back then. No set has the high degree of impact that the fork lift has achieved (but there are some close ones).

Adr.
