“A Billion Bricks: LEGO Turtles, Trains, and Tyrannosaurs”
Saturday December 14 – Sunday March 2

Monday marked the first day of set-up for our annual show at the Stamford Museum & Nature Center in Stamford, CT. This is our largest and longest-running show.

The first step is also the hardest- we have to set up several dozen tables based on the digital layout we make for each display. These tables are custom-made to fit a certain number of 10×10 inch LEGO baseplates so everything ends up square and neat. The tables are arranged and then we have to attach the legs. The legs are simple PVC piping and can be cut to any size. This layout has four dropped tables at the back for an coastline area. Once the tables are arranged, we make sure they are all level so they can be screwed together. They are pretty rock-solid once attached.

Check back for more updates as we get closer to the opening.
