Been getting lots of peer pressure to build the LEGO house despite the challenges. Even received some LEGO donations (thank you!). Concerned about cost, I decided to revisit the design and build on a 1x1x1 brick equal 2 feet by 2 feet by feet scale instead of a 1 foot by 1 foot by 1 foot scale. And it seems to work out fine with much fewer bricks, even with the garage and some of the landscaping added!
We received several tips about a local LEGO store, and I went there on Saturday, LEGO list in hand. However, the LEGO choices were disappointing with lots of specialty LEGO bits but not enough standard bits. I walked out with the large green base plates and plans of purchasing the needed pieces on line. It appears that it will cost about 100 bucks to build this baby. Stay tuned...
