That is awesome

iSTELTHYi · 22nd February 2011, 5:31 PM

Am I the only one who doesn't actually buy sets to display? Rather just buy specific parts for what I'm thinking of at the time (spent more on Lego than I have my computer)

Made some pretty awesome speaker mounts (and a Router stand, since i have the misfortune of owning a Netgear heater)

I 'spin' the last monitor around when doing upgrades etc, and its never moved a mm. Gravity is holding them in place (thats why they extend over the front of the monitor abit).

Only thing is sometimes the cars drive off cause they're on such an angle (and only held in by a gap of one stud under each wheel)

definitely awesome, and yes. custom lego builds = win

Nope, I also do the same thing......have everything sorted ready to build what ever takes my fancy.

Pretty Rare I actually have a model (set) built unless it's something I am modifying to make better etc.

And it looks like they've extended it to be one of today's deals too. This set doesn't really do anything for me though.
