Slightly abridged version, full minutes (and more info) can be found here, on
our blog. http://whackolug.blogspot.com/
Sunday Oct 18th
In Attendance: Jenn Wagner, Janey Red Brick, Jeff Van Winden, Jef with one f,
John Bradey, Chris Magno, Mike Sheils and Dave Koudys. Note - both Carol and
Andy Cook sent MOCs in their absence.
“Officially” we discussed upcoming events once again, and a few fun activities
for us. We will start with “drafts” (parts drafting) at our next meeting in
November for those that want to play
Show and Tell: Janey brought in small Lego elements that are recently new to
the line (micro figs from the game series, 2 x 2 jumpers plate, 1 x 1 round
plate with hole) as well as a collection of newly released Lego books. I
believe one of the two Jeff/Jef’s brought in older Lego books. Chris brought in
and demonstrated his plastic pellets for our amusement, wow could they ever bind
with a brick.
Moc and Tell:
Dave brought in a motorized and rcx’d “Classic Space” radar dish array,
Sorry, no picture currently.
deborah brought in her picnic tables (ok, this is like the one she brought it,
but not the actualy one, since the one she brought actually had custom engraved
“wooden” tiles, but I do not have a picture of it, yet)
and a perceptual calendar...
and Jef brought in his butterfly knife...
Teacup Challenge:
This challenge turned out to be the hardest challenge yet... unlike most of Lego
products, and their ability to be easily connected to other elements, it was
VERY difficult to find anything that would hold these cups in place.
Jenn brought in her “Eat at Joe’s” sign...
Janey brought in an WIP amusement park ride...
Jeff brought in “Classic Styled” spaceship...
Mike brought in a few train cars (here is one of them)...
Carol, who was not able to attend sent this cool power-point presentation of her
horse MOC...
Andy, who also was not able to attend sent his ol’style Duncan yo-yo MOC in
Photos of the Tea Cup Challenge (except for Jeff’s Spaceship) are Mikes and used
with permission. Jeffs Spaceship picture belongs to Jeff, and is also used with
permission.
Sunday Sept 20th
In Attendance: Jenn Wagner, Janey Red Brick, Andy (Blue Brick) Cook, Jeff Van
Winden, John Bradey, Carol and Mike Sheils
Show and Tell: Janey brought in the new fire station and the new dark green
train.
Moc and Tell:
Carol brought this cool office vignette.
John brought in this amazing office tower... each floor fully detailed, complete
with lighting on the first floor, elevators and a roof top garden.
Two members, Carol and Janey, rose to the soccer net challenge...
Carols fishing net...
and sun glasses...
Janey’s gazabo...
Special note - Jeff VW had already brought a few examples the last meeting when
he challenged us such as a building awning, sorry, no pictures. (And yes, he
made me add this)
Any errors or omissions please let me know.
Wow, I am tired now, and still two more posts to make. LOL
