  Re: Build the Trust
 
(...) Micro. but this is more difficult than I'd expected, ..trying to make it look really good. My brain is hard wired for fig-scale. I might wimp out and build a different, generally historic, small home at minifig scale. -Suz (19 years ago, 23-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Gold in them thar hills!
 
(...) Aw, nuts!!! We were going to enter this: (6 URLs) If you don't know this, it's the Cincinnati Union Terminal. I was trying to find the pic on Brickshelf stating it's historical landmark value. Unfortunately, it's not going to Brickfest...it's (...) (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, FTX)
 
  Re: Build the Trust
 
(...) I just realized I can make the whole Robie house out of 1x6 red plates and match the dimensions of the original, weird bricks FLW used. Zowie. Will I have enough red 1x6 plates from last year? Possibly. (19 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  What i'm bringing to the brick bazaar this year
 
Hey all, Well as most of you already know the Bricklink shop owners hate me at BrickFest. Ok not really, but I usually make deals that confuse them if not dumbfounds them altogether. This year to keep with tradition I will be selling brick again. At (...) (19 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)
 
  Now accepting custom track preorders for BrickFest
 
Hey all!, As some of you have noticed in the past 2 years or so, there has been a major advancement in LEGO track geometry created by the community. We have seen the development of the half section of track, crossover the correct radius switch, and (...)

  Re: Build the Trust
 
(...) My road trip went VERY well, I got a lot of good pictures and I have a very clear idea of what to use (a few of, 3 to 5 as I said) the bricks for. They *will* be related to the model. Now, the question becomes, can I carve out enough time to (...) (19 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

  Re: Build the Trust
 
In fact I have no idea what to use the gold bricks for. They are just motivation to actually deliver. I mean, I committed. I will probably build a chryselephantine Zeus out of them or something else. -Erik (19 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Build the Trust
 
(...) I think actually I told you at NTS and you forgot I told you, but ya, Gaylord building is it. Now, for bonus points, what's the gold brick tie in? ... And YES I think this is a reusable building when I lose, er I mean, if I lose. (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Build the Trust
 
(...) I am building a minifig-scale model/interpretation of the Farnsworth House in Plano, IL. It will end up slightly off scale due to choice of pieces, but I think it's looking good so far. -nk (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Build the Trust
 
(...) Sorry to reply to myself. Just to come all out, I plan to have 3 buildings done, all of which I can potentially use in future trainshow with our club. Each time we do a show I hear we need more 1-2 baseplate buildings. This contest was just (...) (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Build the Trust
 
(...) Trainhead! This industrial building would fit nicely in the neighborhood of a trainyard. The other illinois choices are not your "thing". a "not denying it" from you is as good as a confirmation :) Paul (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Build the Trust

  Re: Pick-a-Brick at BrickFest?
 
(...) No it had not, oh well. teh cat is out of the bag. :-) I was waiting to get the final OK and inventory numbers from LEGO. the available amounts may no longer be accurate. I'm sorry to say that you may request an element and they may not be (...) (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest)
 
  Re: Build the Trust
 
(...) Shoot, that is my second project choise. I've already ordered all the brick. As with you, I may not have enough time to do it. Mine would be minifig scale, and yours? Paul (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

  Pick-a-Brick at Brickfest?
 
I was clicking around the Brickfest website, when I found this: (URL) this been announced yet? It says the deadline is the 26, that's in less then a week! It seems like a great offer, 15" x 6" x 9" cases for $90, and it would be a shame if people (...) (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

  Re: Build the Trust
 
(...) Me either. I was thinking I'd use about 3-5 bricks total, if that, but DID have a scheme for why they would plausibly appear in the model, somewhere. (...) I'm not saying, but it's not P. Hope that helps. (it's really not too hard to guess but (...) (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)
