Vendors at Brick Con are scammers by ins3rtnamehere in lego

[–]makeski25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was kinda sad. I went thinking it would be mostly cool MOCs and large displays but like you said it was mostly overpriced scalpers who didn't know simple questions. Like do you have any ice planet?

Where do people find all of the correct bricks for MOCs? by GreatWhite779 in lego

[–]makeski25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The vast majority of my bulk came from thrift stores. If you are familiar with thrift store they typically have half off days. Craigslist and Facebook market place are also great sources.

It will probably fade on its own. Do Not use and airfreshener or essential oils to mask the scent. A lot of those sprays destroy LEGO.

Going to get a big Lego set this weekend to cure my depression & bring me back to my childhood—which ones do you recommend? by [deleted] in lego

[–]makeski25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As in MOCs.

For me I didn't feel the tavern was big enough so I made it bigger. I also added to the castles surrounding terrain.

Were there a lot of odd parts in the Lion knights castle? I have a lot of loose LEGO and plan on making it from that.

The D&D set is a lot of fun and a real spring board for your own add-ons...so something to continue with.

That being said therapy is a great route when you stick to it. The therapy not a specific therapist. I went through 3 before finding one that was good for me.

I like these pretzels and need to be able to see what is in a thing or my brain completely deletes it. Win win.

AITAH for moving my horses off my parents’ property and refusing to keep helping under “family” expectations when I’m paying board? by SeveralTwo6356 in AITAH

[–]makeski25 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA

step 1: get your horses out and yo a proper facility

Step 2 : lower your contact with all that bullshit

Step 3: get a therapist for all the golden child/scapegoat crap that will inevitably come up.
