The past few weeks I did a bunch of modding on the official LEGO Razor Crest.
I absolutely love the bright yellow decals on the more recent UCS Razor Crest set. A member of the brikwars discord community gave some very helpful advice on the implementation of my own decals.
The changes to the middle section of the canopy are derived from 0rig0's Razor Crest mod. His instructions can be found here: rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-64158/0rig0/razor-crest-modifica...
Another Matchbox Series No4 Dodge K Series Stake Bed Truck Modification. 1966 to 1968 - 1-75 Series. This is the testing with the new color and the restored stake bed painted green. The color I like but on the truck but I am not happy with the stake bed. The warp is bad and I tried to fix it without it breaking which it wanted to do. I even soaked it in hot water to soften it but not luck.
This is a photograph from the 1st round of the 2015 Mullingar Road League which was held in Belvedere House and Gardens, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 6th May 2015 at 20:00. This year the 5KM was ran on a modified route based on the route from the last couple of years. Tonight the final 1KM stayed within the Belvedere Gardens bringing runners down to the lakeside for a second time and finishing along the aptly named Stream Of Life. The route modification meant that the race offered a slightly faster route than the hill finish of previous years.
The race is promoted by Mullingar Harriers for the Pat Finnerty Memorial Cup. Competitors need to run 3 races out of the 4 races in May (any order) to be considered in the overall placing in categories at the conclusion of the league. Over 350 people took part in tonight's event. The weather was perfect for running with sunshine with just a little breeze. The new finish area provided a nice space for runners to stay around and chat in the evening sunshine. The Mullingar Road League 2015 has started off successfully and looks to add to the success in the history of this great series.
The "Road League" is something of a misnomer but is an indication of the League's origins on the roads around Ladestown Mullingar prior to it's move into Belvedere in 2008. The Road League is the envy of many other races in the country as the Belvedere locations offers a completely traffic free 5KM route.
We have an extensive set of photographs from tonight in the following Flickr Album: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/16772614064/

If you just need these photographs for online usage then they can be used directly once you respect their Creative Commons license and provide a link back to our Flickr set if you use them. For offline usage and printing all of the photographs posted here on this Flickr set are available free, at no cost, at full image resolution.
Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.
In summary please remember when requesting photographs from us - If you are using the photographs online all we ask is for you to provide a link back to our Flickr set or Flickr pages. You will find the link above clearly outlined in the description text which accompanies this photograph. Taking these photographs and preparing them for online posting takes a significant effort and time. We are not posting photographs to Flickr for commercial reasons.

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs
We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?
The explaination is very simple.
Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.
ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.
Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets

I really liked what Reddit user Conc (Steve) did on the rear of his model: imgur.com/a/OlWlB#0
He moved everything back a stud and gave the vents the appearance of sticking out over the tail lights.
Last month, as I prepared to use my Pinholga camera for World Toy Camera Day, I noticed that the shutter was sticking. ARRRGHH!! This camera has been a pain to use since the first day I bought it! It also leaks light like a sieve, but only intermittently when I least expect it.
So I decided to "fix" this camera once and for all. I also photo documented the process. And I must have been really bored that weekend because I created a video, too.
If you care to see how the camera modification turned out, please visit this YouTube video. You may want to mute your computer before visiting:
A revved up version of the original Mission 5 set from the Power Miners line now featuring a PF motor allowing it to spin without the wheel mechanism originally designed by the LEGO company and allowing it to like up the drill even in black darkness. Not much else was changed although a few more bits of tube and other wires were added. Everything else added was just to accompany the motor. I'm still looking for a way to hide the big battery box, any ideas?
See a picture of it in the dark also!
Video Deleted off of Flickr, but you can now see it on Youtube
After discovering the hands and forearms come off, I decided it might be a good idea to carve out the joints a bit. I've never tried this before, so zombie girl here is my guinea pig. (I can't recall her original name, but since she's obviously inspired by Venus McFlytrap I've named her Dione.)
Legs from the side. I'm not doing any huge modifications since it's my first try.
The accordian shaped metal is four resistors that I mounted along with the coil and laminated steel assembly behind it also. These control and modify the welder output in the constant voltage mode. I select one, two, three or all four resistors together with the round switch I added on the lower right front of the machine for high to low output. Engineers at Hobart told me what parts to buy and the the way to order the circuit. This is attached to bottom of the machine at the back.
To see the whole machine:
The Nintendo NAS contains the following hardware.
CV860A Motherboard with onboard Via Eden C3 at 800Mhz
512 Mb RAM
400Gb 3.5″ IDE Hard disk.
3 * 100MB Lan connections
I’ve not put a CDROM drive inside the unit that utilises the cartridge flap on the front. Ive mounted the hard drive behind it instead.
The plan was to install FreeNAS, but I’ve now decided to put Ubuntu server on instead. I can then put a full Apache/MySQL installation on it and publish its website to the internet. I will put a guest book system on it, so visitors can sigh the log. Keep an eye on nintendonas.retrocomputers.eu . I should have the site live by the new year.

Please excuse the crappy quality.
I plan to use this body for a character who's not particularly athletic. So I shaved off a bit of bulk from her shoulders. The tricky part was guessing when to stop before opening holes on her deltoids...

this is the easiest and best way to modify a 3 volt battery for a 350 or any other packfilm camera that needs 3 volt. the holder costs about $1.50 on the net or maybe Radio Shack ?
Instead of the 6V-40mA bulb a LED with 1N4148 diode anti-parallel and a serial resistor on the 6V AC voltage.
Matchbox Series No4 Dodge K Series Stake Bed Truck Restoration. 1966 to 1968 - 1-75 Series. This is the second Stake bed I am restoring. I bought it years ago at a swap meet. Until I started restoring these I would not have thought to even touch this. This one is pretty rough when it comes to the bed, it is really a mess and for some reason the factory made the axles really long so I cut them down. This one turns out different than the first restoration. Here it is all apart, the glass was in pretty good shape and cleaned up nice. So now time to strip the paint.
"Black" Battery Holder Modification
If you don't have a stand alone battery charger for your extra rechargeable batteries, or you've lost or broken the yellow battery holder, you can modify your radio to recharge your batteries with the black holder. Remember, don't plug your radio in if you're using alkaline batteries in the black case after completing this mod.
Open the battery door, and remove the batteries and holder.
Remove the four screws located on the back of the case.
Carefully pry the back half of the case off.
Locate the three metal strips at the bottom of the pc board on the right hand side.
Locate the two strips spaced closest to each other, and solder a jumper to these two strips.
I needed to file the area for the solder to take.
Reassemble the radio in the reverse order you disassembled it.
You will now be able to recharge batteries using the black holder. Again, use only rechargeable batteries with this mod. If you attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries in your radio, you will cause the batteries to leak or explode.

I did this mod using a tiny wire and it only took a few minutes.
It's working fine.
