Hello dear fellows!

Today I want to present something different to you than you would expect from me as I ususally post space MINI modesl from various themes here. But today it’s my pleasure to show you my MINI version of the Eiffel Tower from Paris! One main aspect for me while building it, was to realize the porous look of it with all those holes in the support construction. After a long time thinking about it, I finally decided to go with those Technic® beams which worked fairly well for my purposes.

There are also instructions and a high resolution .tif file available. If you need them, just drop me a line. Thanks for your interest and stepping by!

Yours Christopher

I love it! I am surprised that there is enough friction in those bottom leg connections to prevent the entire structure from flopping over. Is there a trick? (15 years ago, 23-Sep-09, to lugnet.town, FTX)
