jaisonline Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 Finished it last niht in-between shoveling snow, work, and family stuff. It was an interesting build with how the bottom base curves inward. There were ample steps where 1x3 tiles fit on 2 stud elements (same with 2x1 fitting on a single stud) without much support until all 4 sides are connected together just below the level with the 2x2 grayish window elements. I added minifigs in the picture for visual size purposes. In summary, I'm glad to have build it. Is it my favorite build? Nope. I enjoyed the 10220 VW T1 van and 10144 Sandcrawler more. Unexpectedly, I developed pain in my right hand (last 3 fingers). Not sure if it is related to building 5 sets in 2.5 weeks (almost 6,000 elements), my job using a computer, shoveling snow this week, or a combination. Jeez, I'm not even 40 years old yet. Will get it checked. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migration Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 That is a cool set. As far as your hand goes, it must be the cold. Tomorrow will have a high around 35 where I'm at. We're usually in the 50's where I'm at. Way too cold for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaisonline Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 It is looking good - I think this set holds the record for the "most wows received" at my house. How is your 10181 displayed? Can you share a picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anakinisvader Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 You should celebrate the build by having some "French" fries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
