My project?

About 3 or 4 months ago, I managed to secure a good 10 foot by 15 foot
area in my basement reserved SOLELY for my lego pursuits.

So I am currently working on a nice *huge* city inspired by - what else
- Manhattan.  Havent thought of a name for it yet.  (minifighattan?)
:)  I've currently got about 6 or 7 skyscrapers built on a 5 foot square
area (using about 20 or 30 of those great bulk-buckets and MANY MANY
window packs).  Some of them are furnished, but most are empty as of
yet.  Some don't even have floors in yet.

The largest is a model of the Empire State Building which is over 5.5
feet tall!!

The only rule I've set for myself is that no building is allowed to be
wider than it is tall. :)

I will be putting a web page up soon; I just havent gotten to the store
for film yet, so it'll be a few weeks before I get everything taken,
developed, scanned, and webbified.

In the meantime-- anybody have any idea what I can make out of those
silver 25th anniversary blocks?  I have a ton of them & dont know what
to do with them.

I'm still in the design phase of my latest creations. Nothing definite yet. (26 years ago, 28-Sep-98, to lugnet.build)
