Re: Light up Disney Castle # 71040 @Michael Organiscak The lazy susan option definitely gained some speed after I gave it a go (and committed the sin of cutting a 15x15 baseplate to "brick top" up the thing.…

Re: Lighting for CREATOR Carousel (#10257) Awesome perspective -- and cards on the table, I am/was speaking solely from photos. (I'm holding my cash until double VIP points... selfish, but nearly enough for the next Modular now.…

Re: LAMP POSTS AND OTHER LIGHTING 24 LF is an impressive build - photos? I'm envious with my teeny 4x8 township, but of how we (my 8-year-old engineer and I) built it out... A single USB power supply off a "brick" for the buildings…

Re: Lighting for CREATOR Carousel (#10257) @Rob Klingberg Well, in that case... ;) My typical mantra -- being practical -- is thinking in terms of what can be accomplished at a price point not to exceed the set's sell price.…

Re: Lighting for CREATOR Carousel (#10257) Oooh, a blank canvas - and I'm waiting for 'double points' to purchase for the fun-land theme area. I'd think a down-facing pico over each of the moving "seats" animals (as to eliminate any shadows…

Re: Light up Disney Castle # 71040 That's probably the $64 question, but I think there's been a hesitation to declare a formal date (whether it be in pencil or Sharpie) given the hiccups discovered during the documentation and QA…

Re: Lighting for LEGO #10244 Fairground Mixer @Rob Klingberg Yea! Can you show your hand as to if the marquee is more of a "kit" or a just a stand-alone controller offering? Just thinking two steps ahead of myself as to applications where a…

Re: Lighting for LEGO #10244 Fairground Mixer Like ears, everyone has opinions.. even me.! I'd say skip lighting the cars -- even LEGO didn't have any trans "light" pieces there, and looking at a real one at the county fair pics,…

Re: Light up Disney Castle # 71040 @Crissy Chan I confess I was also late to the modular party -- being cheap, I scoffed at the price for the first 3-4 years, and then my bride gifted me the fire station and... it went from there.…

Re: Light up Disney Castle # 71040 Brilliant - I'd not yet considered a plate-spacing for underneath wiring, but that makes sense, and also gives me the plate-height to then also build up a tile ballroom floor on the inside side.…
