I could have played with LBB all weekend long!  Eric is a genius.

I also got to meet Jeff Ranjo.  After seeing his two newest mecha, I had the urge to run out and buy a bunch of new Bionicle sets just so I can make a copy of his stuff.

Sun Yun's mecha are unbelievable!  I wanted to play with them more, but as it was, keeping kids from grabbing the mecha was a full time job, and I didn't want to encourage them by playing around with his EVA.

I took pics of Jeff's and Sun's stuff, but I don't want to post there new stuff until they get a chance to do so.

Dave Johann also has a new mecha that is very large.  Some of the coolest legs I've seen on that scale.  That's all I really got to see before the unfortunate incident... :-(

Bryce's newest mecha is huge and frightening as ever!  Okay, Bryce, your next mecha better be a Bunny Rabbit mecha or something ;-)

All of the mecha builders who weren't there were missed, and always in our minds.

Later, Everyone!

My take on Brickswest '02

It was great getting a chance to meet everyone and get a chance to put a
face to their respective awesome creations.

Chris, you're a engineering nut and it was nice to get a chance to sit down
with you and talk shop about joint technology.  You, Dave and Bryce gave a
great lecture on mecha and I'm glad I was there to get it on tape.  If you
want a copy I'll send you one.

I had the chance to say about three sentances to Eric but sadly never had
the time to hook-up properly.  Sorry Eric, don't take it personally!  E-me
sometime! Thank God for the Internet.

It was a nice surprise to see Sun there.  I love his stuff and his web site.
Surprisingly his mechs are ALOT bigger in person than on a computer screen.
You have to see them in person!!  Sun, hope to see you at the next LUGOLA
meeting!

Bryce and Dave, great lecture on Saturday, hope Sunday's was just as good.
Agiel...spooky-spikey love! Also, thanks for grabbing my stuff.   I thought
the take down time was on Monday not Sunday!  Oops.  aheh-heh. I'll call ya.

Got to meet some guys from SEALUG Mark and Stephen.  Nice guys from
Microsoft.  Thanks for the ride!

Overall it was short and sweet.  I wish I had more than one day to attend
but I saw alot for my first Lego experience.  Maybe I'll schedule more time
next year...

One last parting thought...  Hey!  Where was everyone else?!?

Jeff

(...) I got laid off two weeks ago. Fortunately, I immediately got a new job, but I couldn't exactly take days off so soon after starting. I'll make every effort to be there next year! (23 years ago, 20-Feb-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
