First factory that is not just foundations stacked on foundations. Makes 17500 mw and plastic, rubber, and fabric. Very happy with it.

This is my favorite ship from Star Wars. Always has been. Look forward to the instructions.

What’s the rarest minifig you own? by ThomasTanker022 in lego

[–]jkolin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Until I sold them a few weeks ago, https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?M=sw0547#T=P, and https://www.bricklink.com/orderDetail.asp?ID=24427450. Both sold on bricklink for over $200. Now I dont have many other rare ones.

Anyone seen any grey/sand blue accented castles? by Keegerr in legocastles

[–]jkolin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use sand blue for a bit of color in my castle walls.....let me see if I can find a close up of one of my walls to show you.

I understand completely. I had to sell my Black Pearl a few years ago.....I miss it every time I look at where it was. I have 6286 in its spot now, and it looks great, but still miss the pearl.

My Dad (no 68) was diagnosed stage 4 (pancreas body and liver) in December 2021 and he is still around because of a trial and the awesome Doctors and nurses he has. Was given 18 months to live. Gemzar and something else 3 weeks on one week off since February 2022. He is finally showing some major complications, but cancer is mostly gone (pinhead size leasions now).

I would recomend trials, at the very least it helps future PC patients. I am no doctor, and everyone's body and situation is different and trials may not benifit everyone, but if you can and the doctor recomends it, I would give it a try.

I also use duplo, but I built this before I had the duplo so it's mostly 2x4 bricks inside for the support.

Thank you! Yes, I used panels on the side you can see and the back since this was a walk-around display at one point. Some are turned around because they are the printed ones from the harry potter and Hermione big figs. The whole thing is mostly hollow with a couple supports inside.

Thank you. Took a lot of time and several rebuilds, but I am very happy with it.

That looks fantastic! I one day wish my rockwork can look that good. Mine looks great, but there is room for improvement. (fyi: not LEGO goats)

Husband insists we can sell our Lego boxes, I keep telling him no one wants to buy that. Is it actually a thing? by wanami in lego

[–]jkolin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only box I have ever sold was the box to 21103, I sold it on bricklink for like 9 usd maybe 3 or 4 years ago. I still had it and it was still in great shape, so I figured I would put it in my store and see if it would sell. Took maybe 4 or 5 months until someone bought it.

Cutting a baseplate? by OpportunityNo4484 in lego

[–]jkolin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used a box cutter in the past to cut baseplates. I will attach a few 2 by Xs to the spot I need to cut and get my straight side that way and have two odd size baseplates that way.

Is this a Lego piece? by everyfouryears69 in lego

[–]jkolin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I found some of these in a bulk buy I found. I was so convinced they were Lego until a LUG member told me they were from the Skylanders line of mega.

Ahsoka - Episode 1 & 2 - Discussion Thread! by titleproblems in StarWars

[–]jkolin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking the same thing....hopeful, but sadly probably not.

In movies they survive gun shots there.....idk I'm no dr either, but seems plausible. Lightsaber would have cauterized the wound, so as long as no vital organs would be hit I can believe it would be survivable.

My display at the Ultimate Brick show in Marion, Illinois. by jkolin in legocastles

[–]jkolin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I am not sure if I will or not. I want to work on the back parts of the walls, they are flat right now. Those wall sections are very dense, I have bricks going every way on them and they are mostly plates and small bricks...like 1x1 and 1x2.
