The next Austrian Event is approaching:
The Austrian LUG will cover about 700m² at the model making fair “Wunderwelt
Modellbau”.
When: March 28 - 30 2008
Where: directly at the highway Salzburg-Vienna, exit St.Pölten South
VAZ St. Pölten
Kelsengasse 9
3100 St. Pölten
opening hours for visitors:
Friday, March 28: 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.
Saturday, March 29: 9 a.m. - 6 p.m.
Sunday, March 30: 9. a.m. - 5 p.m.
We are also planing a AFOls evening on Saturday.
As it’s a model making fair not only many great LEGO mocs will be shown. Some
highlights are model railways, slotcars, model cars, model ships, helicopter
demonstrations and some great Harley Davidsons (original ones and replicas in
smaller scales).
St. Pölten is about 60 km from Vienna so it’s easy to combine the fair with a
sightseeing tour in Vienna.
If someone is still interested to show his own mocs please contact me (verena
[at] brick [dot] at). I can also offer help with information on routing,
accomodation and sightseeing.
greets
Verena

I'll be taking a week or two in June/July for 1000steine-Land 2004 in
Berlin, and I'm wondering what is the best (most economical) way to do
this. I live in Boston and would like to leave Boston approximately
June 25 in the evening and return to Boston approximately July 12 in
the morning.
Friends here say I might find much better airfaires if I fly, say, KLM
to Amsterdam and take the train to Berlin and back or ride with someone
who is driving to the fest from Amsterdam, Frankfurt, or some other
relatively nearby city.
I'll be at 1000steine-Land as a photographer, working on a large coffee-
table art/book project I began over a year ago which is designed to expose
the general public to the amazing things adult LEGO enthusiasts build and
do. Ideally, I'd like to meet with German LEGO fans before and after the
event, and if possible kind of float around nearby cities visiting people
in any or all of the Netherlands, Italy, France, Austria, Switzerland, etc.
I'll also be visiting the Netherlands later in the year for LEGO World and
hope to make it to Denmark to visit Byggepladen perhaps in the same trip.
Is anyone here from the Netherlands driving to Berlin, and would you
consider taking a passenger? Are there other economical alternatives
besides Amsterdam? Is the train expensive from Amsterdam to Germany?
Do I have to get a separate visa for each country I visit, or can I get
a two-week EU visa? Where would be a good place for me to research all
of this online?
Thanks,
--Todd

Hello everybody!
This fall I went with my family to Vienna and we went by the amazing
Hundertwasser Haus. I imediately realized that the building would make a great
subject for a LEGO model and over christmas I found the time to carry out the
project. Here's the result:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=68696
Created by the austrian painter and architecht Friedensreich Hundertwasser, the
Hundertwasser Haus opened in 1986 as a regular appartement building owned by the
City of Vienna. I read somewhere that it is now the largest tourist attraction
in Vienna apart from the Schonbruun Palace! More info can be found at
http://www.hundertwasserhaus.at.
I wanted to model the building as accurate as possible in minifig-scale using my
existing collection of bricks. That imposed two restrictions: I only had bricks
to make the outer walls of the building. Also I didn't have any photo material
of the back, so I wouldn't know what to build. I've included some pics of the
backside of the model revealing how the SNOT was made in a very simple way
(http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=625317). When looking from the
right angle, you can't really see that the building is nothing but a set piece
(http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=625285).
Secondly, and most importantly, I had got neither the right type of windows
(they don't exist in LEGO?) nor the right amount, so instead I chose to use all
sorts of windows in many colors
(http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=625299). The result is actually
quite nice, I think.
The many colors of the house made it possible for me to use many of the new LEGO
colors, including tan, tan red, orange and dark grey. In the mosaic along the
wall at the ground floor I've used my very few plates in colors such as light
blue, dark red, pink and brown
(http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=625308).
I made no plan of the model before building, I just started in the lower left
corner and finished in the upper right :-). My own favourite details are the
props I build last, the cafe and the fountain
(http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=625295). I'm also quite happy
with all the columns and the rounded stairs to the cafe.
The building is huge and very unstable and fragile (!) and it will probably
never make it out of the basement "alive". I know, I ought to build some support
for the walls. I've included some pictures of me next to the house so you could
get a feeling of the size
(http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=625313).
Finally, there are plenty of reference photos for you to compare with. If you
look closely you will se my brothers and I on some of them
(http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=68697)
That was a long description! Please write any comment you have, I'd really like
to hear!
Have fun,
Esben
Copenhagen, Denmark

Hello everybody,
De Bouwsteen is the Dutch LEGO users group and has currently almost 600
members. Amongst other activities, we organize three club events a year
and we are also actively participating in LEGO world, the biggest LEGO
event of Europe, with in the year 2002 over 37000 visitors in five days.
We would like to get in contact with as much as possible other LEGO user
groups in Europe (or people who are interested in starting up a LEGO
user group) to discuss the possibility of forming an European Federation
of LEGO user groups.
The purpose of this European Federation of LEGO user groups is to
exchange information about the organization of the different LEGO user
groups, the organization of events, as well small events as big events
like LEGO world, and also to synchronize agenda's to minimize the
overlap of events in different countries.
Another advantage of an European Federation of LEGO users group is that
it will be easier to communicate with LEGO and that white gaps are being
identified.
If you would like to discuss about the possibiliteis of an European
Federation of LEGO user groups, please contact me, Paul Koelewijn.
Hasta LuEGO,
Paul Koelewijn
President 'De Bouwsteen'

LEGO®WORLD 2002,
Maybe you have already heard something about this, but here is the offical
announcement. From October 18 until October 22, The IJsselhallen in Zwolle, The
Netherlands will be once again be devoted to LEGO, as then probbaly Europes
biggest LEGO-event LEGO®WORLD 2002 will be held.
Last year, LEGO®WORLD 2001 was a big succes with over 27.500 visitors.
Unfortunately many people had to be disappointed, as it was to crowded to let
more people in. Therefore this year the event will be even larger then last
year. Not only will the event now last 5 days instead of 4, but more
importantly the floor size will be double as big as last year.
LEGO will show a lot of very nice things this year again and also the dutch
LEGO users group 'De Bouwsteen' (The Buildingbrick) will be present again. Last
year very many people were interested in our own creations. There were so many
people present in our area that it was even hard to walk around there.
Therefore we will have this year a much larger area to show all creations and
it seems to be very interesting what we will display.
What will be there to see:
Of course LEGO is present with a huge amount of nice things to see and of
course there are LEGO building contests. I don't know all the details of what
they will show but last year they had very nice things.
I can tell you more about what 'De Bouwsteen' will show, because I'm one of the
people organising the part of the event which will be filled in by De
Bouwsteen.
Trains.
This year there will be again a huge train layout with many trains and scenery.
The trains will go through mountains and over bridges. One of the bridges will
span a long distance without any kind support. A masterpiece of building
technique.
Miniland.
Connected to the train layout is Steendam. The Miniland city of the members of
De Bouwsteen. We asked all our members to build a city building on a 32x32
baseplate. With about 450 members, this will become one of the biggest LEGO
cities you have ever seen.
Trade and sale
Of course you have the possibility to buy new LEGO sets at the event, but there
will also be a possibility to buy second hand LEGO or try to trade your LEGO
with that of others.
Historical overview:
Whereas in the section of LEGO many of the newest sets will be displayed, De
Bouwsteen has an area where a lot of older LEGO sets will be displayed. Bring
back the memories of your childhood and look at the sets you always wanted to
see in realtiy
Own creations.
What is a LEGO users group without any own creations? Many of our members have
made beautiful models which they will show during LEGO WORLD. Enormous,
detailed buildings and cranes are only a few of the creations that will be
shown.
Demonstrations:
This is the time to find out what you can do with LEGO. Of course we will show
you how to work with Mindstorms. Also you can learn everything about LDraw to
build fantastic models in on the computer. Rather want to work with the real
bricks? Then look at the special techniques demonstrations where you can learn
a lot of tricks to make your models to look nicer.
Diner
On one or more evenings we will organize a diner for LEGO fans in a restaurant
nearby LEGO WORLD 2002. Here we have the opportunity to relax from the event
and talk to eachother about everything connected to LEGO.
Tickets
Tickets will be availble at the Intertoys toy stores in the Netherlands
starting August 26. For foreign people we'll try to find a solution so that
they can also buy there tickets in advance. We didn't find the perfect solution
yet, but we are working on it. For the time being, people interested in tickets
are adviced to contact me via e-mail.
Lodging
A large number of volunteers and exhibitors will stay in holiday park close to
Zwolle. If you are interested in joining us there, please contact me.
The organising comittee of the Bouwsteen consists of:
Sybrand Bonsma, Eric Brok, Erwin van Grinsvin, Jaco v/d Molen, Paul Wolters,
Hans Beuze, Mark v/d Horst, Rick Zonneveld and Peter van Es
