Advent 2024 Days 3-4
Today we are covering days 3 and 4 of the Advent calendars since I fell asleep on the couch yesterday and didn’t get Day 3 done! Not an auspicious beginning. I really need to start doing these in advance instead of trying to get it done the day of! Anyway, today we get a dog with a bone and a skateboard with helmet (City), the Little Mermaid and her castle (Disney), a snowboard ramp and a bunny (Friends), and some street furniture (Spider-Man).

Happy Pi Day 2017
Happy Pi Day! March 14, or 3/14 as Americans write it, is a day to celebrate all things mathematical. For Pi Day this year I designed a LEGO clock face using the first 12 digits of pi instead of 1-12.
Instructions for Christmas Build-Up Models
Throughout the first 24 days of December I had been posting about the Advent Calendar and Christmas Build-Up models. Each day I designed and built a MOC (My Own Creation) using the parts leftover after building each day’s Christmas Build-Up model, and while some of them are holiday themed, most were not. So I have created instructions if you want to build them yourself.
