Simple tools for modelling...
As some of you are aware, I have used Lego in the past as a modelling aid. Being very versatile, it can be used for a range of tasks. Below are just a few of them. Please add any other variations where Lego can assist with modelling.The set square…
Below. The corner brace/set square used whilst glueing wall corners. This is how the bricks are arrange to get around any supports in the internal corners of a wall, but still keeping everything square. This can be built to any length.
Supports… A variety of bricks can be built up to any height to help stabilize models when glueing…
And my favourite…, Scale blocks ! Would you believe that the Lego block is equivilant to OO scale feet measurements !
Hope this is helpful. I know it will be for when I start the build of my engine shed…
Cheers, Gary.

The Englishman who actually invented the system on which Lego is very closely based - but forgot to get a World Wide Patent (only a UK one), unfortunately didn't live to see his invention become the fastest growing toy in the world.
