So up to a few weeks ago, I have been making 3D looking images with my available drawing programs (2D). Then I gave Google SketchUp a try. Very basic 3D CAD but very easy to use.
In the past I just gave LDR files for examples for others to build from, today I will go over the mechanics that make up my original LEGO Log Cabins designs.
So around 2003 I was thinking about how I could make my multifamily dome community safer while minimizing the amount of pavement for the development.
My solution was a development that only had one-way roads. All intersections were roundabouts with a clear view of any oncoming traffic.
So after more research and some specs from Monolithic Domes, I made some changes. First off this height of the dome would have a 34ft or more center height. This means I can get 3 floors within each resident area.
Please note this does not affect any of my non-commissioned LEGO art and pictures.
For my Design side of my website, all designs, pictures, applications, technology, that I display or explain on my site are copyrighted by Mike Gallagher and all are my intellectual property, designs and artwork… .
Just after art collage, I found some information about people building Monolithic Domes.
Basically, they would blow up a balloon that is the full size of the house. Add some spray-on foam and short create with rebar, and just as that house is done. Well still needs the interior comforts, but a structure builds to last, and through anything.
So it’s been quite awhile since I have done any work building any LEGO MOC’s. With most of my LEGO swag in storage, I decided to see how far I could get making my version 4 of the Enercon E-126 windmill hub with in LDD. These were made 100% in LDD, pictures made in other programs..
This design has been my current Dream House design for some time. The design incorporates only exterior walls that support the roof, giving the whole house an open and flowing layout. Once you enter the front door most of the outer windows are in view giving a panorama of views.
Going through all my files of Custom LEGO SNOT Roads I have made and posting the Pictures and LDraw files to go with them the here.
This was designed in 2009 and I thought it about time for a new design but wanted to first go over this MOC.
For humans to travel to distant solar systems and searching for habitable planets to colonize, the past technology used to exit the Earth’s atmosphere is not capable of sending the needed resources with the travelers.
Working on my 3rd revision of the hub and geared areas of the E-126 MOC. These new revision are being made in MLCad so at some point I will have the whole MOC made in LDR and MLCad.
Setup my log cabin with a modified base to fit the community window at the Columbus Ohio LEGO store.
