NCLUG had its second LEGO event at Morehead Planetarium at the University of
North Carolina, Chapel Hill, April 1.
The club had four dedicated display areas:
a moonbase with modules from members Carin Proctor, Sam Cox, Adam Skelding,
David Winegar, Joe Meno, Sabrina Gravatt, train track from Mike Walsh, and a
module by Robert Gurskey (WAMALUG), Tony Perez (WAMALTC) and mecha from Fradel
Gonzales (WAMALUG),
a Star Wars display by Sabrina Gravatt
a Classic Space display by Cyndi Bradham and Vangie Reynolds, and
an asteroid display with monorail by Tony Perez and asteroids by Carin Proctor,
Sam Cox, Sabrina Gravatt, Joe Meno and Ian Brusso
Ian Brusso also showed
some motorized models:
A few new display ideas were done successfully at this event:
• An overhead
frame was made to suspend models as seen here
• The asteroid field display came out really well with the monorail tying the
asteroids together:
