In my haste, I made huge error by not mentioning that Dave VinZant (from the
club formaly known as PNLTC, a fellow club member) spent 30 hours (minus 4 for
sleep) helping with setup, managing the build, and hanging the mosaic. I really
could not have done it with out all Dave's help and amazing can do attitude!!!!!

T H A N K S   D A V E !!!!!!

And also thanks to Tony Hafner and family for letting us use their home as our
base of operations!

And thanks to Dan Parker for the last minute "dive and catch" by securing 27 ten
inch base plates the day before the build, while Dave and I were en route, cause
UPS lost the shipment for a couple days!  I needed something to "go right" at
that moment and it was only a phone call away!

Hi All,
I just got pictures up (Thanks to Tony Halfner!) of a mosaic I took part in
building last week. The image is not all that interesting but the fact that 180

Tony liked the idea of having the hot-spot directly over the light bulb! :)
Pardon the corny-ness of the poses! I couldn't help myself. :)

Stats:
It's made of 48 ten inch green base plates. The builders had an instruction grid
for each panel to follow but covered it in any way they wanted. Each panel had a
ziplock bag of parts with roughly 120% of what was needed. All-in-all about 30k
bicks were used.

Enjoy!
