Mech Bay 08 - Chili Den ==== Construction Notes
  • Build Time: 5 days
Mucho cool. Fairly quick build in the land o’ Sophie. Helps that Chili was already built first. ;)

..and chili was built in two days, making it a week project. Welcome back Dave!

  
  
  • 6 corridor connections
Good number. 8 would have been too many and anything less than 4 just isn’t worth the effort.

With 8, it would either connect to itself, or have to go veritcal. 6 was just an occurance in the construction. I used the wing plates to form the floors and walls. In the end, making a pedal design for the corridor floors. Symetry dicated the rest. It was fun.

  
  
  • X-POD Clip Straps
Probably my favorite touch besides the Sand Green. These are a natural fit for the theme, but haven’t seen much use as yet. Chili, the bondage mech. heh.

Plus Green is one of Your Fav Colors!
Bondage Mech?

You mean this one?

  
  
  • Sand Green donated by Jenny Johnson of GardenSLUG
Proper props to a perfect benefactor. It’s always nice to see others’ parts get credit when needed.

Right on, my list is long.

  
  
  • Green trans 2x2 bricks from PaB
Excellent usage. I’ve been trying to come up with a good use as well, but this beats mine.

I only have a cup. What’s yours?

  
  
  • 1x1 and 2x2 spider printed tiles
where’s the waterspout?

Ha ha, got me. (does thing with thumbs and fingers, Spider crawl.)

  
  
  • Petting arms - Dino Tails and Bionicle joints
Dino and Bionicle Represent!

Yeah! Yeah! Boi!

  
  
  • Splits down center via Technic pins
because partability is the ONLY way to go.

Splidi-taowh!

  
  
  • “LEGO” Printed bricks from Master Builders in Enfield CT.
Another nice touch. These look great in the mech bay.

thankyyy

  
  
  • Probably take better pics at a later time
No worries. You make us slog through enough pics as it is. ;)

Tah-ha, hoi hoi.

   Take care, -Dave
