Public Meeting
We are having a meeting at The Moon under Water ( Moon Brewery & Pub, 350b Bay St) on Monday, the 21st of September 2015, at 7 PM.
All are welcome to attend, this is a public meeting and not a show, though there may be the odd bit of show and tell going on, along with frivolity and laughter.
The Train Show 2015
Hi All of you,
This is our next big show, at the Juan de Fuca Rec Centre, on the 24th of May. The show runs 10 am – 4 pm, Adults $7, Youth (11-16) $3, Family $14, Children under 8 free with an adult. There will be a fairly complicated track plan for this year, involving 6 bridges and 2 grade crossings. (and hopefully, no minifig carnage !)
beautiful hand crafted LEGO-inspired electronics
This is too cool to not share…
Artist Love Hultén has created these amazing 6:1 recreations of classic LEGO elements, complete with working electronics inside.
So beautiful
So nostalgic!
