The Battlestars Galactica

This project started when I decided to try freebuilding a model of the Galactica from the Sci-Fi Channel series. Once it was done, I knew I had to also build a same-scale model of the classic Galactica from the 1978 series to fly alongside her.

The Saloon

I have built a lot of saloons over the years, but this is the granddaddy of them all.

For Wyatt

A nameplate/diorama I built for my son's bedroom.

TechWest Stuff

A fusion of Old West and Space themes.

Wetpaint HQ

A minifig-scale model of the Mottman Building in Seattle.

LegoStarCraft — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 04:40:52 CDT

My son loves Lego Star Wars. He is almost complete in playing all levels in the Lego Star Wars the Complete Saga game in PS3. He "had" Lego sets for several Star Wars vehicles, Lego City, Batman, Power Miners, etc. but as soon as we build the sets, he disassembles them and build mashups of pieces to create these elaborate vehicles.

My contribution is the photography and the occasional help in connecting or untangling some stubborn pieces.

Y-PL Welcome to the Y-PL, a state of the art manufacturing system designed to create all kinds of essential devices for the modern age. This automated production line uses electronic blueprints and assembles the design with extremely fine tolerances and in record time. Understandably, it is the first choice when choosing equipment for any engineering facility. No prizes for guessing the letter it resembles... A number of robotic tools work in harmony to produce the required device. This is the assembly robot. Products are manufactured here on the grey workspace. This is the automated crane. And this is the control panel. Small components, fresh from the foundry approach on a conveyor belt. The larger parts come in from this side... ...and are lifted into place with the crane. The components are then used to build the product... ...which in this case, is a heavy duty engine used in tanks. The engine comes off the production line and is transferred to the rover. The rover has a platform mounted on hydraulic rams to carry the load. This engine can now be dispatched to the vehicle assembly plant. The whole system is automated and can be set up by a single workshop technician to produce a wide range of bespoke products for many uses.

Top 13 Practical Uses for Legos

dustpaint — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 20:21:10 CDT

Over the years, LEGO fans have come up with some pretty creative uses for these plastic bricks. From the mundane to the extreme, here are some of the best practical ways you can use your LEGOs!

	LEGO USB Charger
	The marriage of technology and toys is a beautiful thing. Here, we see LEGOs used to create a USB charger that you hand crank yourself, since, you know, that's way more practical than just plugging the damn thing in to your computer. The usefulness of this LEGO gadget is almost as impressive as its relative simplicity. Using a LEGO motor (and a few bricks, of course), you can turn a crank that will generate current, pass through a voltage regulator, and into your USB port. Your high school physics teacher would be proud.

	LEGO Salt and Pepper Shakers
	Not only are these LEGO salt and pepper shakers aesthetically pleasing to appease your design sensibilities, they are also incredibly useful and flexible. Plus, you'll get that added plasitc-y taste that was always missing from your salt and pepper before now. These spice dispensers should fit in nicely with your grandmother's china or that special anniversay crystal your parents bring out for Thanksgiving every year. Note the red brick at the top that can be positioned differently to allow different proportions of salt, pepper, or both. Sheer elegance.

	LEGO Valve Stems
	Looking for a way to totally geek out your bike or car without having to spend too much money? These sweet LEGO valve stems for your bike or car wheels will make you even more popular than that kid down the street with the Star Wars bed sheets. Not only do LEGOs make a totally awesome bike/car accessory, they're super easy to make. All you need is a 2X2 brick, a utility knife, and some super glue, and you've got yourself some LEGO valve stems!

	LEGO Boat
	The LEGO boat might stretch the definition of "practical," but consider this: when you're stranded on a desert island with nothing but an unlimited supply of LEGOs, the ability to build a functional LEGO boat will come in real handy. If that's not practical, I don't know what is. This particular LEGO boat was constructed and used by Japanese boy band Arashi. Unfortunately for them, the whole experience ended rather sourly. Of course, their boat is suspected to be made out of LEGO knockoffs, so I'm sure it'll turn out better for you in that whole deserted-on-a-remote-island scenario I mentioned earlier.

	LEGO Mouse Trap
	If you could never get that damn Mouse Trap game to work, you might like this contraption a bit more, though it's pretty much equally complicated to assemble. An alternative to the horrible snapping-metal-bar mouse trap you see in cartoons, this LEGO cage will capture your mouse with no gore to be had. Trust me, a mouse trapped inside a LEGO prison is way cuter than a mouse corpse trapped beneath a metal bar any day.

	LEGO Rubik's Cube Solver
	You've had that oh-so-elusive Rubik's cube sitting on your desk for years and you've never bothered to figure the damn thing out. Who's got the time anyway? Certainly not you. If you don't have time to solve the Rubik's cube - which could take weeks, months, or years - you should at least have time to build this LEGO Rubik's cube solver, which should only take a few hours. Trust me, it's way easier to figure out than the Rubik's cube itself.

	LEGO Computer Case
	Some things are just so obvious, it's like they were meant to be. For instance, check out this LEGO computer case. Building a boxy case for your computer out of LEGOs just makes too much sense to be ignored. This particular model is packing with a VIA Epia PD Mobo 1Ghz processor, Nvidia 6200 PCI Graphics, Laptop 80 Gig 7200Rpm Hdd, Laptop DVD, 1 gig Geil DDR memory, and 200 watt PS, so it's just as pretty on the inside as it is on the outside.

	LEGO Yarn Winder
	The woman in your life complaining about all that time you spend playing with LEGOs while she spends a full week knitting a sweater? Perhaps you can help her appreciate LEGOs by crafting a LEGO yarn winder. The best part about the LEGO yarn winder is that it accomplishes the exact same thing as the pre-existing ball winder, but this one is made out of LEGOs, and is therefore 100 gillion times cooler.

	LEGO Flash Drive Casing
	There are plenty of kooky and creative flash drive casings out there, but the LEGO flash drive casing combines our love of toys with our love of technology, like geekiness squared. This little gem takes a bit of hacking to get a flash drive to fit into the relatively small space inside a hollowed-out 4X2 brick, but if you get it to fit just right, the effect is great. Plus, if you make more than one, you can stick them together and never lose another flash drive again. Or, alternatively, lose them all at once. Whatevs.

	LEGO Business Card
	We've got one more thing to add to your growing list of reasons why it'd be totally awesome to work for LEGO. In addition to working for a ridiculously cool company, you get another, little-known fringe benefit that helps you flaunt your awesome job: the best business card that has ever existed. Word on the street is that LEGO gives their employees business cards that are look-alike minifigs with contact info printed onto their tiny shirts. Custom minifigs in and of themselves are pretty sweet, but imagine the warm, fuzzy feeling you'd get every time you gave one of these to your envious colleagues. So good.

	LEGO Cell Phone Cradle
	You don't have to build something intricate or complicated for it to be practical and useful. This LEGO cell phone cradle proves exactly that in all its simplistic beauty. Plus, it's a great way to show off your beloved smart phone in the geekiest way possible. As you can see from the pic on the left, creating a cell phone cradle isn't particularly involved. Just make sure you've got a hole in the back so you can charge your phone, and you've got yourself a cheap and fun cell phone cradle. Although this cradle shows a phone being held upright, you can also build ones where your phone lays down, so you're pretty much free to build whatever your geeky little heart desires. Either way, you definitely want to keep that minifig on guard to watch out for thieves. You never can be too careful.

Create a New LEGO Theme

Judged by: BrandonE

In this challenge, all you have to do is create a NEW Lego Theme. You can build this as multiple vigenettes, one huge set, or anything like that. Just two simple rules...

It must be a NEW Theme, not a previous theme.
You can do a theme that has more similar pieces, but is different.
- Ex.) Star Wars is a real theme, but Star Trek is not. You can use Star Wars pieces if you were to build a Star Trek set.

You will be judged by creativity.

Prize: I will try to get an online prize in, but right now, it's just the simple "judge the next challenge and your picture on the homepage".

Monthly Challenge Rules

BrandonE — Sat, 07 Mar 2009 19:02:58 CST

(Please read before entering)

Brickiwiki Monthly Challenge Rules

The very first and most important rule is to have fun. This should not be a chore nor a job for you, but rather a great way for the community to share our creativity and passion for LEGOs.

You must become a registered Brickiwiki user to be eligible.

You may only enter one creation per challenge.

Your creation must be completely original. For example, when prompted to build a scene from your favorite film (June 06 challenge), you cannot use a photograph of your official Star Wars Death Star. However, if you build a Death Star from scratch without Official LEGO instructions, it would be legal.

Keep it clean. By this, we mean leave out anything that might be unsuitable for our younger visitors. The term "unsuitable" is to be left to your own discretion, as you should be able to determine what is too naughty and what isn't. Just ask yourself, "Would I want my mother to see this?" If your answer is, "Absolutely not!" then you may want to think of something else to build.

All entries will be judged on creativity as well as skill. Novices to LEGO modeling are encouraged to participate, as we put an emphasis on creativity first!

All entries must be posted to the current Challenge's Gallery page by midnight on the last day of the challenge in which you are participating.

Always enter your BrickiWiki name next to your challenge post.

Must use LEGO bricks.

Challenge Prize

The winner of a given challenge will be given the honor of picking and judging of the next declared challenge. However, the winner must sit the next challenge out. Their role will be relegated to judge for one whole challenge.

In addition, the winner will have his or her creation displayed on Brickiwiki's home page and the official BrickiWiki MOCpages forum for one month, until the next winner is announced.

Voting

The winner of the previous challenge will determine the current challenge winner.

If you team up with another user on any given Monthly Challenge, all team members are subject to voting for the following challenge. (all team members must refrain from entering the following challenge too)
