This page is to display some of the Lego brick creations I have built. Enjoy.

Update 11-7-08: Here is my smaller, white version of a Soma cube. I have it on my desk at work.

I also did a prototype of a sliding puzzle I saw on Jaap's puzzle page. I'd like to refine this, and have plans to build the same puzzle but with dice and in a clear plastic box.

This is a lego rendering of a classic 7 piece puzzle which makes a cube when assembled. I didn't have pieces in 7 colors readily available, so one piece is mixed.

Mosaics. I have an idea to build an obilisk to classic NES Mario games. This is the first part of the attempt, which has experienced several breakage setbacks. I first had built a wall with a relief of Mario from Super Mario brothers, and later I did a similar project of a Shy Guy from SMB2. I liked the Mario with studs-left, as the extra width didn't adversely effect the look. I wished I had built the Shy-Guy with studs-up, as the bricks and extra height would have worked better. This project got shelved for a while, and I finally got back to it and decided to take my two existing walls and make a cube. I now wish I had just used both walls as-is, but I decided to rebuild Mario to be studs-up. A mistake, as I still haven't gotten around to finishing the rebuild. :P

I also did a Samus from Metroid standup. I like it alot, though both at home and on my desk at work it has been knocked over and smashed multiple times. I hope to figure out a 3D version based on front and side views from the Metroid NES game, but its not easy.
