After designing the micro museum sets, the Longmont Museum asked me to build one in minifig scale. They also wanted the planned auditorium addition built onto it. For that I worked from blueprints. The whole thing was a mess of odd angles and rooflines. It took a month to complete.
This will be on display at The Longmont Museum for the Build! The Amazing World of LEGO exhibit from June 8 - Sept. 8, 2013. So if you're in Colorado this summer you should go see it.
So this is the way I went with my latest engines (P2, Atlantic, Gladstone) to get the dimensions about right.
Tried to get a bit further away with the camera and zoom in so the outer parts of the picture aren't distorted by the angle (compared to the paper)

I used photoshop to enlarge the grid and lay it over the engine's drawing. Really helpful to get the proportions right!

When designing my custom minifig prints, I try my best to make them blend in with your Lego figures, rather than stand out like a sore thumb. My hope is that someone might ask, "Hey, what set is that guy from?" And then you can say, "Oh, he's actually from Saber-Scorpion."
One of the wonderful people I saw at the KC Renfest Sunday. I love Renaissance festival! For one thing, it's one of the few places where, when people see you pointing a camera at them, instead of frowning suspiciously and turning away, they're most likely to stop, smile, and pose! They didn't get all prettied up like that for nothing! Way too much fun!
Her eyes were so pretty and I loved the effect with the face painting, just had to do this crop to just the eyes!
Sol Sender and Scott Thomas stopped by in San Francisco to discuss the Obama campaign logo and website and how graphic design and new media has revolutionized politics.
Time to start a new sweater! This time, I am designing it. I had some ideas, and eventually found a lace panel I really liked. The swatch you see are some ideas I was playing around with to see how the lace could be framed.
I need the color - this winter doesn't seem to want to end!
I appreciate your feedback. And thanks to Dr. Purrington for the valuable advice he has posted on his web site.

Fiat began designing the Ritmo hatchback – as a replacement for the 128 sedan – in 1972, following the body style of its 127 supermini as European manufacturers began launching small family hatchbacks, notably the Volkswagen Golf in 1974.
Prior to its launch, the press speculated that the project codename 138 would be the final production name, however, Fiat instead gave its new car the Ritmo name, rather than another three digit number. Offered in 3- and 5-door hatchback and cabriolet body styles – from 1978 to 1988 with two facelifts.
The Ritmo was manufactured at the Cassino plant using a system developed by its subsidiary Comau, the "Robogate" system – which automated the bodyshell assembly and welding process using robots, giving rise to its advertising slogan "Handbuilt by robots", immortalised in a television advertising campaign showing the robots assembling the Ritmo bodyshells to the strains of Rossini's The Barber of Seville. The exterior has plastic bumper fascias integrated into the styling which combined strong round shapes with overall sharp lines, achieving a drag coefficient of Cd=0.38.
The 1980's and 1990's TV series Designing Women was set in Atlanta, GA. The houses for the characters were actually in Little Rock, Arkansas.
Julia's home and the site of Sugarbakers & Associates was the Villa Marre house. It is a Second Empire house built in 1881. It is located in the MacArthur Park Historic District.
The house is at 1321 Scott Street.

The long running Ralston Type-8 morphed into the 'Tigre' line in 1938, running late, as the promised V8 from Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Cord line failed with that company, and the inline-8 which had similarly been bought it from A-C-D (used in the Auburn), was also no longer in series production from the engine works.
No matter. There was a modest stockpile of inline-8 engines which was gradually depleted in the manufacture of the Rhino model. Meanwhile 1938 brought with it a V8 engine from Cadillac, fitted to a chassis frame of Ralston's own design. The shorter engine allowed a greater allocation of overall length to the passenger area - though truth be told, more of if went to providing greater luggage capacity, and a more cab-forward look to the cars.
The Tigre MkI, still know as the Type-8 Tigre was replaced after WWII, with a MkII design, losing this Type-8 appellation. The new model appeared at the end of 1953, the car based on the new post WWII Cadillac frame, engine and underbody of the 1948-53 Series 60 (in particular the slightly longer 60 Special). The tooling was transferred to Ralston upon completion of the 1953 model year. By this stage the preceding MkI was now 15 years old, though this included the period through the war years.
The adoption of Cadillac underpinnings provided the Ralston Tigre MkII with the calibre of running gear demanded by the marque's premium position, though with a much reduced outlay, particularly compared to their premium US-based builders such as Packard. Key differentiation with the originating Cadillac was the Ralston themed 'X' radiator grille, unique bumper treatment, and completely reprofiled rear fender tops, truncating in a rocket-pod tail lamp cluster, instead of the Cadillac 'fin'. Not elements sat completely at ease with the carryover Cadillac based structure.
An update to the Tigre MkII in 1956 led to the MkII-B. a few of the elements were cleared up in the styling, plus the addition of a number of 'flourishes' that had emerged during the 1952-55 model years. Chief among these were 'tailfins' no longer the preserve of Cadillac, but sprouting taller and wilder each year on all US domestic brands. Compared to the 1954 model, the MkII-B had slightly taller fins, but they were much more prominent in the styling, as they were accentuated by both chrome trim separating them from the fender bulge, and also incorporating one of the zones for the bi-colour and tri-colour themes.
In 1958 the car was upgraded further with the advent of the MkII-C. This model again received changes to the fender, front and rear. At the front, the fender height was increased, making the car look both more modern, and also tying the top ridge into the unmodified doors and sides. The rear fender was modified to include a tapering fin, which then led to a tail lamp treatment which was to evolve further into a 'rocket pod' on subsequent models. The 'X' theme was continued to include a 'X' rocket, mounted centrally in the trunk lid. This could alternatively be swapped out for a conventionally styled horizontal trim, if the Continental spare wheel option was included (though this had also phased out of popularity over a short time period). The new trunk lid also shared the tapering profile of the fins. Although this look less modern compared to the newly squared up trunk lids from GM and Ford's divisions, it suited the 'classic' lines of the Ralston Tigre model, leading many to state that the MkII-C was perhaps the most conservatively handsome of mid-century Ralston models, particularly on the SWB closed models.
Additional styling changes included a modest reinterpretation of the grille, including the addition of 'Dagmars' at its extremities, and a new front bumper including marker lights.
The 1954 car launched with the same tune 331 CID (5.4 litre) V8, producing 230 bhp (175 kW), for 1956 this was raised to 285 bhp (213 kW) with an increase in capacity to 365 CID (6.0 litres). The 1958 MkII-C retained the 365 CID V8, but power increased to 310 bhp (230 kW).
Shown here is the 1958 MkII-C Convertible in two-colour treatment Dark Red, and Rose Beige.
This Lego miniland scale Ralston Tigre MkII-C Hardtop Coupe (1958) has been created for Flickr LUGNuts' 108th Build Challenge - The 9th Birthday, titled - 'LUGNuts Turns Nine' - where all previous build challenges are available to build to. This model is built to the LUGNuts 63rd build challenge, - "Designing the Ralston Tiger" featuring fictional vehicles styled with an 'X' form in the styling.

History of DIY audio
Audio DIY came to prominence in the 50s to 60s, as audio reproduction was relatively new and the technology "complex," audio reproduction equipment, and in particular high performance equipment, was not offered at the retail level. Kits and designs were available for consumers to build their own equipment. Famous vacuum tube kits from Dynaco, Heathkit, and McIntosh, as well as solid state (transistor) kits from Hafler allowed for consumers to build their own hi fidelity systems. Books and magazines were published which explained new concepts regarding the design and operation of vacuum tube and (later) transistor circuits.
While audio equipment has become easily accessible in the current day and age, there still exists an interest in building one's own equipment, including amplifiers, speakers, preamplifiers, and even CD players and turntables. Today, a network of companies, parts vendors, and on-line communities exist to foster this interest. DIY is especially active in loudspeaker and in tube amplification. Both are relatively simple to design and fabricate without access to sophisticated industrial equipment. Both enable the builder to pick and choose between various available parts, on matters of price as well as quality, allow for extensive experimentation, and offer the chance to use exotic or highly labor-intensive solutions, which would be expensive for a manufacturer to implement, but only require personal labor by the DIYer, which is a source of satisfaction to them.
