They also sell a square version. 29.5 W and L. I have six for our Lego city. Just a smidge small for an even number of base plates, but since they’re all on Mils plates it’s cool. Cheap too And while we’re on the subject of things I like for building Lego, this little number is the sweetest. Almost makes dusting fun 4 Quote
Alpinemaps Posted January 16, 2022 Posted January 16, 2022 Thanks. Like I said in another thread, I’m trying to figure out something for my new house. I’m thinking of doing some sort of IKEA hack. Definitely want a long table top, so that helps. Quote

Definitely want a long table top, so that helps. i’m a very skilled builder, with a full professional shop, (I welded up a custom build table for Pete’s sake) and after many iterations this was the highest quality/cheapest solution. The tables are very sturdy. I considered putting a piece of half-inch MDF on the top to fix the “little bit too short“ problem, but it was unnecessary. 2 Quote

Popular Post Mathew Posted January 17, 2022 Popular Post Posted January 17, 2022 Built the AT-ST. Very detailed and compliments the UCS AT-AT nicely. Canabilized the Probe Droid stand for the Snowspeeder. Probe Droid is now a parts pack. 10 Quote

Not sure if you have seen this and doesn’t really apply to the way you have your set displayed, but I do like the look of fixing those gaps. Quote

It has a better average review score and is currently being offered with a 40% off coupon, bringing the cost down to $16.19. At that price, I figure it's hard to go wrong! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08SM7BDL8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 1 Quote

Would you mind sharing a link to the instructions you used for this? Quote

This is the builders page https://rebrickable.com/users/LegoArtisan/mocs/ Mine is the Seinfeld apt added to this https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-79570/LegoArtisan/friends-apartment/#details He has a lot of options. I don't like Friends but I needed a base for the Seinfeld apartment & wanted it to be big. My dream show for this treatment would be Married with Children. That will never happen though.

I might look into it. The gaps are due to the designer making the interior displayable so I've kind of accepted them (though my OCD does not). I definitely want to replace the tan tiles in the armor though. That almost seems like a mistake on Lego's part. Quote
Belac Posted January 18, 2022 Posted January 18, 2022 Popped open a set from the build pile! Glad I did . Was sorely lacking this in the star wars display. And...NO STICKERS! Just four nice printed pieces. Also brought down some other sets for dusting but as they're from Tatooine, I'm convincing myself to save the effort as they "look better dusty" 3 Quote

CosmicSpeed Posted January 25, 2022 Posted January 25, 2022 Finished this the other day. Had to document before it gets torn apart. It had it's challenges but overall just took around 7 days just periodically assembling and with a work trip in between. The Minifigure head one is probably much harder if the size is the same.Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk 4 Quote
