Briefing:

We started off showing off various creations. Then we sorted 2 Rebel Blockade Runners. Which were promptly drafted. This was a complete blast. After the draft we got to the business portion of the meeting. We are currently looking into other venues to display.

Creations and Stuff of interest:

Peter Guenther brought along his new castle stuff, which included a forstman tree fortress, underground lair, a waterfall, and wizard's tower. Small details such as his cobblestone walks and watermill stood out. New member Scott Palmer brought along some Star Wars themed creations, which were a cross breed of TIE Fighters and X-wings. Stefan Garcia brought a coal ramp, which was pretty neat, although the slope may be a little extreme for a regular Lego train motor. Jamie Bliss had along a space themed chess set which he is working on. Ken Koleda brought a spoof set of Yoda's Eyeball/Socket, which were parts Steve Bliss requested. Many members see the spoof and wonder when they released this set. Steve Weiser had a nifty airlock design that he was working on. Jason Spears brought along one corner of a module he is working on. More details were requested, but he was hush-hush about the project.
