A modular school.

 

Building instruction is available at: rebrickable.com/users/peedeejay/mocs/

 

Every city needs a school! The build spans among 3 baseplates and consists of 10 modules. The baseplates can be separated from each other for easy transportation. The complete model weighs about 10kg and has 14417 parts.

 

The front part contains the main entrance, some trees and a bus stop. The roof areas contain the ventilation units, photovoltaics and the clock.

 

The ground floor contains the main entrance hall with washrooms for boys and girls. The right wing of the ground floor contains a standard classroom for maths and literature. The left wing of the ground floor contains the music classroom, featuring a piano, drums and some other instruments.

 

The middle floor contains a cafeteria, where the students can get a quick bite and some refreshments. The left wing of the middle floor contains an IT-classroom and it seems the students are well stocked on mobile devices. The right wing of the middle floor contains the science classroom. At the moment some experiments are ongoing in the chemistry class.

 

The upper floor contains the library.

Modular S-curve. For a complete 3x6 baseplate table: add a row of three blank baseplates to the top to give the left half; rotate by 180 deg and add a row of three blank baseplates to the bottom to give the right half. This table will need to be mirrored to make a modular set that is compliant with the standard.

 

For those interested, the "inner" curve is ~R200 and the "outer" curve is ~R216. At 1:45 scale, these correspond to curve radii of 72.0 m and 77.76 m, respectively. For comparison, on VR broad gauge the minimum radius is 160 m. On the North American rail network, the absolute minimum radius (87.8 m) (according to Wikipedia).

This was one of the most challenging facades I ever built, but I‘m quite happy how it turned out. Inside you can find also an architect‘s office. This gave me the chance to try some microscale building for the first time.

Building guide available on www.brickmonster.toys

 

Following the standards commonly used for LEGO® modular buildings, the Police Station is a modular building in a 32-stud-wide format with 4 distinct sections.

 

- Ground Floor featuring payphones, a large desk, waiting area, and holding cell.

- Main Floor featuring the many desks of the precinct's detectives, file storage, a bathroom and a caged armory.

- Top Floor featuring the chief's office, an evidence room, and crime lab.

- Roof featuring communication equipment and the station's air conditioner.

When folding Dášas modular cuboctahedron www.instagram.com/p/BVmH4aqDb9D I realised that the principle could be generalised to other polygons instead of squares. First idea: pentagons to fold a dimpled Icosidodecahdron, but this won't work without glue as there's no locking involved on the units. So I did only fold one unit as a proof of concept

 

Next: triangles! This worked with the following: a dimpled cuboctagedron again, dimpling the squares this time. As the dimples are tetrahedral this is a polygon with a name, the octahemioctahedron, consisting of 8 triangles and 4 hexagons, where the later intersect each other... a uniform star polyhedron. Ah, I just love geometry! As it is a hemihedron, that is the faces pass through the center, assembly is a bit tight as in the center theres all units meeting in one point. Nonetheless its decently stable and needs no glue.

Variations of this star. Not very good though:)) Too many layers in the center.

 

Inspired by the classic veiw of the Lego Modular buildings. This is all my minimodular street consists of right now, but I really like it!

 

The Blue Hotel is my entry for the Toys n' bricks Mini modulars contest. toysnbricks.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=5233&...

 

"Founded in 1910, the blue hotel is the leading hotel service in New Studwell city. Each hotel is built with exactly 3 floors, a standard upheld to the highest points of exceleence. Considered 'one of the best locally-based hotel chains' by the New Studwell Times, this hotel is guaranteed to meet and exceed your expectations!"

 

Number of peices: 215

 

It is approximately 9 bricks tall and built to the mini modular standard. If you look closely, you can see two flights of stairs inside the central section of the building.

 

Now with palms, fountians, and the rich and famous! Also, awnings over the rear windows to keep the glorious setting sun out of your eyes!

 

C&C welcome!

A New Update to the Kingdoms Modular Castle Creator Set on Lego Ideas. ideas.lego.com/projects/148797

I have a new and exciting update to the Kingdoms Modular Castle Creator system. Now, to keep brick count and cost down, I am introducing a whole new set of room and roof modules that are half the width of the original modules at 4 x 8. This new set of Narrow or “Half” modules could act as replacements for the original set of 8 x 8 rooms or increase the Creator capability by simply including instructions for the additional modules This would significantly increases the number of unique castles you could build with this set. It is a big win whichever direction Lego choses to go. Of course, these new modules have been designed and tested to fit perfectly with every other module already described in the set. The top of the modules are 4 x 8, which hold a half battlement yielding a play space of 3 x 8 which is pretty standard for most castle sets. There are Lego Technic pin holes just like before for connecting the rooms or hanging other modules off of them. The only difference is that the short, 4 stud side has only one pin hole centered in the middle. This single pin hole, lines up perfectly with either of the two holes on a whole or 8x8 room. Two narrow rooms can be connected to make a single standard 8 x 8 room. Our you could connect them to make an “L” shape. With this set and your imagination, you can build these, and many more unique castles of your own design by simply rearranging the universally configurable modules.

 

Our LUG's next building challenge is a modular standard building but only 8 studs wide. I randomly picked a blue and dark gray 8x16 so I thought it'd be neat to have a lake house. Of course, now I have to hope it'll eventually be displayed next to some water.

 

I kept the masonry bricks out of this because while it might look like it needs more detail on the outside, typical lake/beach houses are long slats. I thought it might look better.

 

Next step is to order all the parts I don't already have. I'm really happy with this one, so I hope it holds up IRL.

A couple of weeks ago, I got my hands on a 1592 Town Square set (Dutch version). I had to restore it a little, and then I got the idea to make a building for my modular street inspired by this set. So this is the result. A corner house, built in the middle ages, the last in its sort, next to the last remaining part of the city walls. Maybe it was the house of the gatekeeper. Today the space behind the gate isn't used as road any more, but houses a little snack corner, where you can eat 'soep en worst' (as in the original 1983 set).

Next to another modular MOC it looks very small, but that is to be expected from a little mediaeval house.

I haven't yet remade the statue and the parade from set 1592.

Ich hoffe es gibt ihn noch nicht :)

  

Here is another section of modular terrain. This time I chose to do a stream, since water is one of the areas where I think modular terrain standards could benefit from an update.

 

Here are the two modules connected together. I intentionally built the second without looking at the first, and remarkably enough they look pretty good when connected. If this were for a real MOC or display, I would add a rock or two to the road and a few more bits of grass to the river to blend the edges, but even as-is I'm pretty happy with how they connect.

i like it when the same fold can be turned into a modular or a tessellation. this and the next model are from the same fold - which is a triple layer fold of beauty - or the windmill base with an extra layer to allow a connection to the next unit.

Variation of this star - I just unfolded the pinwheel and arranged it into a different pattern.

Funny enough, the pattern itself looks exactly as one of Andrey Hechuev's stars:D
