Iterative Design

When designing our GBCs and LEGO models, and all of our products actually, we always use iterative design to achieve our final solution. It is a design methodology based on a cyclic process of prototyping, testing, analyzing, and refining a product or process. The guys from Sioux .NETonTrack are working on their latest invention for transporting trays around a track and they seem to use it as well. In this video they show us how they develop it and what problems need to be solved. For one problem our Powered Up Extension Cable stepped in and extended the cable of the color sensor up front. If you look carefully you can see it hanging in between the carts.

For sure check out their Youtube channel as they have many more cool systems build from LEGO.
Fun Trivia :) their name “.NETonTrack” comes from the software .NET they use to control all the LEGO motors and sensors.

Why do we love LEGO?

Why do we love LEGO? It enables creativity and thinking outside of the box. Just like Szilard Gyalay did from the USA. He build our GBC 36 Crazy Carnival but he did so with only using the LEGO parts that he had available. Normally this GBC is made from the parts of the LEGO 42082 Rough Terrain Crane but that is not the case here. Our guess is that a lot of parts come from the LEGO 42100 set which explains all the white elements. Great work and this is a true engineer at work finding other ways to make it work. He even mentions to us: “Great way to lean and build your own, without always purchasing the required LEGO set”. Thanks for sharing with us Szilard. Also want to share something with us?

Total Zennn Time

We get total zen by this montage of our GBC 10 Funfair (42042 Alternate build) in action. Watch all the mechanism slowly evolve over time and start with your own version of it using our building instructions.
Thanks to CFSL for sharing this creation with us. Have you also created a video on one of our products/models? Share it with us here.

GBC 50 Lift Module in the loop!

Brick Eric from the Netherlands used our new GBC 50 Tow Lift in his bigger GBC layout. It just perfectly fits in as designed.

GBC 50 Tow Lift fan build

Our GBC 50 Tow Lift is getting traction and several fan builds are already available on the product page of this new model!

Brick-eric from the Netherlands did so as well and he made a nice video of it including some really nice shots of the mechanisms in action.
You should know that we are working hard on getting the official product video out soon but until then it is great to see the community making an effort to provide us with such nice videos. Thank you all.
Did you also build and film one of our models/products in action? Please send it our way: Upload here.
