Machines

Cranes, diggers, wind turbines, locomotives, factories, bridges and machines that exist only in your head: this is where models with function and structure at the centre are collected. The crane and the locomotive from the examples show that no special parts are needed. Everything here is made from the basic parts of the editor, and each model comes with its building instructions and parts list.

Machine models gain from structure: long bricks 1×8 and 2×8 act as girders and jibs, 1×1 bricks and round bricks as struts, columns and chimneys, plates as intermediate layers for steps and ledges. Build load-bearing sections offset so a crane arm does not snap at a joint. Tiles work for cabs, control panels and walkways, round plates for wheels, valves and lamps. The bigger the model, the more important a wide base. Rebuilt it or taken it further? Mark it as Built it or publish your remix.
