Find lost instruction manuals The Brickfactory is an online repository of TONS of Lego instruction booklet scans. There you can find instructions on Lego projects such as the 1985 Airport (Search for box number 6392… they don’t make it easy to link to specific instruction books)… or the 1988 Emergency Treatment Center (box #6380). Those [...]
Since the numeric abbreviation of March 14th is 3.14 – it’s known as “Pi day” among the nerds. (Nerds in Europe probably don’t get it, since they tend to put the digit of the day of the month first – so they would be celebrating 14.03 day today… which simply isn’t as much fun…) Happy [...]
