Garth has once again posted notes from the most recent TwinLUG meeting at the Rondo Community Library in St Paul. Highlights:
Just a reminder that the next TwinLUG meeting will be 1:30PM Sunday October 19th 2008 at the Rondo Community Library in St Paul, MN. The library is located at 461 N. Dale Street and we are usually in the large meeting room right off the lobby.
See you all there!
Just wanted to direct people’s attention to the new “Spooky Star Wars” contest over at Reasonably Clever. It looks like it could result in some very fun models.
TwinLUG is going to the MCBA Fallcon Comic Book Celebration occuring on October 4th and 5th at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds. If you are going to the convention look for our table where we hope to have Micropolis and some other comic book inspired MOCs on display!
The next full TwinLUG meeting will be 1:30PM Sunday October 19th 2008 at the Rondo Community Library in St Paul, MN. The library is located at 461 N. Dale Street and we are usually in the large meeting room right off the lobby.
There is no official agenda set for the meeting yet. If there is something you would like to discuss please post a message to our Yahoo Groups discussion list.
We hope to see you at the meeting!
At the August meeting, TwinLUG member Max suggested that the group attempt to build parts of a Micro scale city for the October meeting that we might want to display for public events and etc. After much discussion about the design details and a month of inventive building the first TwinLUG MicroCity was assembled during the September meeting. After the meeting several intrepid members installed the MOC, now dubbed “Micropolis” in a display case at the Lego Imagination Center store at the Mall of America for everyone to enjoy.
TwinLUG member Garth has posted a great entry in his blog about the model along with pictures of the assembled display.
We hope to be posting a detailed spec for others wanting to build their own modules and cities compatible with our design.
Garth sent a great summary of the September 21 meeting held at the Rondo Library in St Paul to the mailing list. A few highlights:
After a brief absence, the TwinLUG website is finally back. We plan to use this site for news and information about the group along with links to our member’s various activities elsewhere on the web. Be sure to check back or subscribe to the RSS feeds to keep up!
If you have any questions about the group please visit our active mailing list hosted by Yahoo Groups and join in the conversation. We are always interested in hearing from other LEGO fans in the Twin Cities metro area and from around the world.
