Someone please explain “height of two studs” as opposed to him saying height of the studs
KAZAM707
November 23, 2021 at 9:13 pm
He’s referring to the piece that is flat on top that is the length of two studs (connects over two studs). Height was a poor word choice.

So who actually designs the models? Do they use software to convert a 3D model into a Lego model? Do they also use machines to put models for the park together?

This guy is living the dream. I love Lego and do build sets by official instructions but also enjoy building custom MOCs (My Own Creation) in my spare time. I find it very relaxing and works the ol’ brain matter using problem solving and puzzle construction, figuring out how to get the correct shapes you want using the limited techniques and parts you have on hand.
It’s a definitely a challenge but it’s fun. That said, I could never do it professionally since I only build in Lego for myself and couldn’t take the pressure of doing it competitively with others.

Wait they don’t use the orange tool to separate bricks?
Mackenzie Smith
November 24, 2021 at 1:17 pm
Because when they build, they are using an adhesive that makes it harder to get the LEGO out. And there are situations that it is 1x easier just to use the pliers
