Lego Love Gift Box
It's Valentine's Day!
I might not do Valentine's Day myself, but I *do* do Lego, and I picked up Lego's seasonal "Love Gift Box" gift-with-purchase, set number 40679. As it's seasonal, I thought I'd do another very quick video and get it up on here as soon as I could.
The build video for last year's Easter Basket is here, if you want to go and look: ruclips.net/video/NwNrM3FQoY8/видео.html
My video intro music was written and composed by Ren Short, who is an all-round great person with many creative skills. Their website is at nonbinarycreative.com/

Lego Tiny Plants Build
Просмотров 27910 месяцев назад
It's always nice to get something crafty at Christmas. This year I was given the Lego Tiny Plants set, and thought to myself: I wonder if I can build this, produce a build video, and upload it to RUclips, all before the end of my Christmas holiday? My video intro music was written and composed by Ren Short, who is an all-round great person with many creative skills. Their website is at nonbinar...
Visiting the Gainsborough Model Railway
Просмотров 766Год назад
Last weekend I took an afternoon out to visit the Gainsborough Model Railway - gainsboroughmodelrailway.co.uk - and as I haven't completed any of my own crafting or hobby project videos, I thought you might like to see one about them instead. They're an O Gauge model railway which has been slowly built and rebuilt since the 1940s, and they have regular open afternoons. My video intro music was ...
Lego Bonsai Build (part three)
Просмотров 101Год назад
The final part of my build video for Lego set 10281, the bonsai tree. The footage for this build has been sitting on my hard disk since January, but editing it has taken a while; I was really pleased with the footage for the final bag, but a lot less happy with what I'd done for the branches and blossom itself. In other words, I'm telling you now, the best part of this video is the second half....
Lego Easter Basket
Просмотров 163Год назад
Another Lego video, because Lego are giving away a limited-edition Easter Basket (with cute bunny rabbit) at the moment. It's Lego set 40857, if you like to keep track of catalogue numbers, particularly the catalogue numbers of cute Easter bunnies. I treated myself (and the kids) in one of their shops, got the basket too, so thought I'd make a build video of it quickly as Easter is coming up in...
Lego Santa's Workshop
Просмотров 557Год назад
Because I bought myself a big Lego set for Christmas, the Lego Shop gave me two Christmas-themed sets for free! This is the build video for the bigger one of the two, 40565 Santa's Workshop. The previous one was the Winter Holiday Train, and you can watch the build video for that here: ruclips.net/video/R3rED5QFUTw/видео.html
Christmas Lego Train!
Просмотров 33 тыс.Год назад
My big Christmas present to myself this year is one of the 2022 Lego sets that most tempted me; and because I bought it from a Lego shop, in December, they threw in a couple of small Christmas-themed sets for free. This is the build video for the first one, set 30584 "Winter Holiday Train" If you enjoyed this one, why not also try my Santa's Workshop build - ruclips.net/video/1OHpDPCDxQk/видео....
Lego Bonsai Build (part two)

Part two of my build video for Lego set 10281, in which we put together the trunk of a tree and drop compost everywhere. Part one is here: ruclips.net/video/tsUdh4SQcyQ/видео.html
A Crochet Capybara (part one)
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.2 года назад
A few months ago I decided to relearn how to crochet, having not done any since I was a teenager - partly because friends kept sending me interesting patterns that they thought I'd like to crochet! My relearning project is a capybara - the pattern describes it as "amigurumi" but it feels like it's coming out rather big to fall into that class! The pattern is from here: www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1...
Lego Bonsai Build (part one)
Просмотров 572 года назад
For my first *real* video on this channel, I thought I'd produce something relatively simple and straightforward. So, I started the Lego Bonsai Tree set, and made a build video of it. The start of it, at least. Part two is here: ruclips.net/video/eYwRBtVLeRg/видео.html
A very brief introduction

A quick (and experimental!) introduction as to why I started this channel, and what I might do with it. Next time I do anything stop-motion, I'm going to remember to make the frames 16:9 when I take them...
The Great Orme Tramway
Просмотров 462 года назад
Visiting the Great Orme, just by Llandudno, for the first time, I was a bit surprised just how noisy the cable-hauled tramway is. The trams themselves are pretty quiet; what makes the noise is the sound of the cable running over its pulleys. Naturally you hear that whenever you are near the track, whether there is a tram next to you or not.

    I've had the Succulents Kit suggested to me as a relaxing build.

      I'm tempted by it, but I have lots of other stuff in the build queue at the moment. I'll pick it up if it shows signs of disappearing from the catalogue.

    IMO, the engine looks like Rheneas from Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends; similar shape and red paint.

      I think you're right, and that's why it looks better with the wheels further apart, because Rheneas (or Dolgoch, the real loco) has wheels spaced pretty widely for a loco of its size

      I agree.

    Just to show my total ignorance but what is a capybara?

      They're a very large rodent from South America - they look a bit like a rabbit without any ears, but they're the size of a small pig
