Specials and Featured Items VAB 6x6 Armored Personnel Carrier British SAS is now in stock! CLICK HERE for more recent NEW RELEASES!( Add to my favorite builders ) I build guns and weapons. I hope that's evident. On my page you'll find all the stuff that I've built and uploaded since July 2008 - earlier than that and I wasn't actually building guns! If you want to comment, then please do, and tell me how to improve, or what to build next, or just say OMG!!! or something like that, which is what most people do. I don't really mind, unless you rate me badly for no reason, which is just pointless. /nxtlog/ and search for 'teenager101' Note: I am pretty much inactive on MOCpages now, so asking me something will most likely result in no reaction.

Whether it be a Pirates movie theater, pinball machine, or even a robotic toilet flusher, you'll find them here. Continue reading to view them all. YouTube user "horseattack" has uploaded a video of a functional LEGO printer that he built, connected to an Apple Mac. Everything was reportedly built from scratch, "including analog motor electronics, sensors and printer driver, the USB interface uses a 'wiring' board." The pen slides back and forth, building images and text one line at a time. It'd probably have trouble with the finer details, though maybe it could just use a finer pen. A LEGO master wanted to create something that could actually be used, so a pinball machine came to mind. This LEGO NXT-based creation features 9 touch sensors and four motors -- "two are used for the ball return and two for the spinners."
If you're a LEGO minifig, you don't need frills like an HDTV projector or Blu-ray disc player. You need this handcrafted LEGO Mindstorms NXT movie theater, compete with pirate theme. First of all, this whole motorized Lego theater set up is legit. Skip to about 2:30 for a behind-the-scenes look at how it all works. [Sources 1 | 2] Here's a first: a pancake-making robot created using "LEGO Mindstorms, LEGO bricks and two ketchup bottles." That's right, it can make pancakes of all shapes and sizes, including the famed Mickey head. You can pre-program what shape you'd like your pancakes to be before the Lego-bot starts a-cooking. Here's a first: a fully-functional digital clock made with LEGO Mindstorms. Powered by two separate LEGO Mindstorms bricks communicating through Bluetooth, "each number has five layers and each layer is controlled by the one above it so it starts from the bottom and builds the number from the ground up." Let's face it, not everyone is a master at Sudoku, but solving the puzzles just got a lot easier...if you've got one of these LEGO Mindstorms robots that is.
Built by Tilted Twister, this creation is the world's first sudoku puzzle-solving LEGO robot. Basically, "it scans the sudoku puzzle using a light sensor, calculates the solution to the puzzle and then writes the digits." Touchscreen vending machines are so yesterday, the latest trend is the 8-bit-looking LEGO Mindstorms model, or so we'd like to think. This miniature version may not dispense dozens of varieties, but it comes complete with a functional coin slot. For his third year project, a college student "built a robotic face (from Lego mindstorm) capable of expressing emotion, and software that allowed the robot to responded to the tone of the user voice." In the future many more devices around the home may have the ability to recognise and respond to emotion. For those looking for a hands-free toilet flushing solution, look no further than the RoboFlush. It uses a motor-equipped LEGO Mindstorms NXT Kit, touch sensor, and an ultrasonic sensor (flush detection) for the dirty work.
What do you get when you combine LEGO Mindstorms NXT with a Samsung Galaxy S II and a custom program? The magnificent Rubik's Cube-solving CubeStormer II. Plus, "CubeStormer will be making a public appearance at ARM TechCon 2011 in California, later this month." This kid’s a real chip off the old Glock. As gun control dominates Capitol Hill and dinner discussions nationwide, one British engineering student is on a block-by-block mission to put more guns into more homes — one LEGO block at a time. Jack Streat, an 18-year-old University of Durham student, is a well-known LEGO weapons builder with more than 30,000 subscribers to his YouTube channel, where he showcases four life-size, functional replicas of the world’s most recognizable firearms, including the imposing Desert Eagle with blowback action and an AKS-74U assault rifle with folding stock. “ of his hobby turned part-time profession. “Guns were my thing at that age and I always built with LEGOs, so it was obvious to combine two things I thought were pretty cool at the time.”
Streat, who estimates he has “quite a few thousand” LEGO blocks, took his love to the publishing world last year with the release of “LEGO Heavy Weapons,” a 368-page how-to-guide to build realistic replicas of firearms that use rubber bands to propel tiny plastic blocks several feet or more. New Lego robotics kit talks to iPhones, comes with infrared 'eyes;' $350 later this year LEGO robo tech gets upgrade with new Mindstorms While Streat is not the first LEGO enthusiast to build guns with the iconic toys, he has sold more than 4,000 books since May and is lauded online as a “legend” of the LEGO community. “If you sold these in kits, I would buy them,” one post on Streat’s YouTube channel read. “Long Live the Streat,” read another. Streat’s book provides exhaustive instructions to build the replicas, which he estimates would cost roughly $100 to build separately, a “fairly expensive” venture, he said. But he does not sell his finished products to toy gun or LEGO enthusiasts, as he keeps the virtually all-black pieces to build new weaponry.
“They already existed when I turned up on the scene, but I came up with a few new ideas,” Streat said of LEGO guns. “But I suppose I was one of the top people at the moment doing it.” For now, Streat has “packed away” his countless LEGOs as he focuses on studying engineering. When asked about critics who say any replica gun is a potentially dangerous standoff waiting to happen, Streat compared his wares to Airsoft or pellet guns. “They’re less powerful, less realistic and less durable than an Airsoft gun,” he said. “And they’re not as dangerous. So whatever views you have on Airsoft guns apply vaguely here. For me, it was about finding something interesting to build and guns filled that criteria.” that the company does not endorse the content or practice of unauthorized books, and in particular, those featuring content that doesn’t fit with its brand values. “ in an email. Streat’s book does come with an emphatic warning that the replicas are not suitable for children under the age of 12 and requires adult supervision.
