  Re: A real live working LEGO Shelf railway...
 
(...) Nice work. It's neat seeing how many of the Model Railroad "standard tricks" eventually get done in Lego as well. I agree with James, a nice slow running train may be just the thing to lull baby to sleep. So if it's a girl are you going to (...)

  Re: A real live working LEGO Shelf railway...
 
(...) Eric, Truly a nice piece of handy work and a great way to bring in the next generation of Lego fan. I thought I'd be 50 before I could justify getting a train.

  Re: LEGO brick bookends
 
Hi Jamie, I think I solved the problem ... I found some high fire clay that had dried out but wasn't fired, melted some lead into a place I had carved out.
