Hi, everybody.

I would like to show off my new Log Cabin using those Log bricks, but on their
sides.  Just trying to come up with more ideas on using the bricks in different
ways.

I used 4 technic beams on their sides as the foundation creating a dual X. From
the Technic beams I attached the 1x2 and 1x4 logs to make the walls of the
cabin. I included the LDR file so you can check out what I’m talking about. The
walls are only “attached” on the bottom. Even though the walls interconnect at
the corners they are not stuck together at the corners.

I will have better pictures of this model and others that I have been working on
after our COLTC show at GATS in Dayton October 11-12 2003.  If you can make it,
come buy and show your support for Lego’s during the show!

I just uploaded a deconstruction of the cabin in LDR but I made a jpg for all to
see also. The deep links are below and after they are moderated the main folder
will also be available soon.

I used different colors for the Technic beams to show they are at different
levels.  Every 7 holes the 2 levels of beams are attached with a technic
connector. In between the beam are 4 bricks but at a different direction, making
up the walls. The possibilities are endless…

Thanks for you thoughts on my log cabin.

Thanks
Mike Gallagher
