Thanks Tanker-Builder & Gamera. I've just looked at thier website again, and there's about 20 that look very good!

Oh that looks great Pat! Nice work! 

Hey!

    A very great way to display. Good on you !

Yes, yes Tanker-Builder I get the hint!

Now, I bought the Rolife Cube separately, so it has pride of place in our front room!

Well Pat! 

        You would need about a bunch of clear panels. I would say Three "Ship in Bottle" kits should be a good start. Anything you can't use can always be swapped out for more or store credit at your local LEGO aftermarket store.

        Oh! You don't want to forget the Green LARGE baseplate and the Grey bricks for the foundation. Also, LEGO has plenty of small flowers!

Thanks Tanker-Builder, well I was thinking Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Chilli's etc.!

I haven't got enough LEGO spares to build anything at present, perhaps I should give them a call, I slipped up as I was in Denmark and Sweden last week!

Hey Pat!

      A LEGO green house,Why not? Then I could brag to my LEGO group that you built one and they should come over here and see it! That looks great. Now are you gonna try to grow dwarf Orchids and Roses in there? LOL LOL!   T.B.

Well it might do, alongside our real one!

A few more completed shots..

So it's going outside? Looking so good, you're doing a terrific job there! 

So I gotta ask, did you see the fjords? 

Thanks guys. A LEGO Greenhouse, don't get me going! So after 2 weeks of cruising across Scandinavia, I decided to paint the woodwork as you would have to outside in all weathers, so found some light grey acrylic.

Yeah she's looking great! Enjoy your holiday! 

Hey!

           You got my orchids grown yet? That's looking Good. Now, build one out of LEGO. Frankly, the size of the squares remind me of LEGO clear panels!

Hi Keavdog, yes I had to cut off all the tabs, as stretching the clear plastic body made the roof come apart a few times. The glue has now run out so I'm using a mixture of white paper glue and a contact adhesive. Oh thank god for coffee sticks/stirrers!

Now nearly, nearly there...

Cheers Tanker-Builder.

Hey!

 That's looking alright. Go Enjoy your vacation. We can just be patient.

Thank keavdog. I used the kit glue although nearly hard and stringy. I got the base the wrong way round so used coffe stirers on the inside of the actual 'glass house' to slot the base into. So now to finish the front and attach to the base. I thank that attaching the roof erspex to the sides will be the most difficult and I will hang the lights but not wire them up to batteries as the can corrode when not in use.

I may go round the 'glass' and add coffee stirers as a 'wood' frame look. But I'm away now from Saturday for two weeks. But will miss the construction that has been enjoyable.

Looks great Pat.  What did you use for adhesive?  Also, did you cut the tabs off?

Nearly there, with a few easily fixed blunders, now I'm out of circulation for at least two weeks!

That looks great Pat! 

Looking forward to seeing the greenhouse when you get back to things! 

Hey!

     How do you like doing those plants out of paper? And their size? But like me ,You've got a good handle on things. Keep up the good work. My trailer kit has me right now making Books for a bookshelf. They are folded like an accordian and then glued together and put on the shelf after drying. Oh, and the Fixtures for the Plumbing.(Faucets and stuff) They have you do the faucets, but forget to give you a way to turn the hot or cold water on or off!

Thanks TigerII. I'm just about to start on the actual Greenhouse structure, although we are away on hols from Saturday for two weeks!

Wow, way to go. That little greenhouse is really coming to life.

Although I still have a number of plants etc to create I have started laying things out on the greenhouse floor.

Thanks guys, a few more bits today,

She's going well Pat, the door looks terrific! 

I like your wife's rendition of this kit.

Hey! Patw:

      I am watching! T.B.

Well keavdog, that looks amazing! Very inspirational, so I've got a lot to live up to.

I completed the Greenhouse door today. A few problems during the build were: finding that the 'glass' was too small lengthways and opaque, plus the clear glue supplied has hardened slightly so difficult to get out of the squeezy bottle. So taking the top off and using cocktail stick to lift it out. I collect clear plastic retail packaging so easy to measure and cut.
