LEGO desk



Nat sent in this 120 pound desk, completely made from LEGOs...

  • Approximately 35,000 LEGO bricks were used. This includes almost all the pieces from 32 Blue Tubs (#3033), almost 300 (!) small baseplates (8x16 studs), and 63 blue plate packs from LEGO Shop-at-Home. A few other pieces were also bought from private collectors (226 tiles so the drawers could slide, et cetera).
  • The desk weighs about 120 pounds, I think. I have not actually weighed it... but I think that is close.
  • About 7 pounds of glue were used. Brand: Oatey, All-Purpose (PVC, CPVC, ABS) Glue.
  • The desk has the following dimensions (inches, WxHxD): 60" x 29.5" x 30".
  • It has 7 working drawers (six small, one large).
  • It has a folding lid in the top that conceals a hole for computer cables to drop through.
  • Yes, the top is bumpy -- studs up. I offered to make the top smooth, but the client specifically requested otherwise. Whatever. I also offered to build a retractable keyboard tray in the front, but that was not wanted. Nor a mosaic of the company logo on the top or sides.
  • Yes, I was paid to build the desk. Don't ask how much. It was worth my time

Incredible. Something you dont find everyday- a LEGO desk! its not freaking easy to do. the whole thing needs a lot of concentration and time, at the same time a lot of LEGO blocks of course. when i was young i cant even fix a mini car with my lego. imagine this desk. maybe in the near future we get to see a life structure of paris hilton built from LEGO blocks. safe for kids of course :)

relationship problems?

its not something new that many couples have problems with their relationship. while date partners can change anytime if not compatible, how bout those newly weds? and those who are even married for years already? of course, there is no one to blame. however getting divorced and family breakups gives stress to both party and also to the children( if theres any). divorce rate is always very high nowadays. people are actually earning a lot by becoming lawyers that handles divorce cases, children care-rights, family assets and so on..

a child growing up in a broken family can cause trouble because it is not a good environment to bring up the kids that way. the kid will probably be a bad egg. even without children, would you give up hope on the family that used to give you happiness when you can actually change them?

seeking for a good,reliable and cheap Telephone Counselingis not easy. however they do provide excellent services that may just save your marriage(if its ever broken). speak to counselors.know the reason. tackle. if you cant change yourself, dun expect your partner to change for you. and a simple change shines a bright light to your future and the happiness of your marriage.

advertisers reaches audience through bloggers

there is always a lot of news going around saying sponsored blog ads like payperpost does not attract readers clicks. in fact, theres a lot of opinions about sponsored posts. most of them thinks that it doesnt reach out to the readers, readers just dont click on them. because of this, a lof of bloggers tend to stay sceptical and evade paid posting opportunities. However payperpost proves this theory wrong.
pay per post blog announced to the world that they, based on their study has concluded that
10.545% Average CTR on PPP Sponsored Posts

CTR means click through rate. Of course when 10.545% may look like small digits to some but when compared to google Adwords, keywords campaign, and even campaigns on popular sites such as myspace have significantly lower CTR rates (below 5%).

it seems like the results are a good representative of payperpost. their study consists of 40k bloggers and 8k advertisers together on payperpost. this in fact shows amazing results on the CTR rate, which means positive future for payperpost to expand.

Of course, not only advertisers are happy that their investment does not turn into words-in-just-another-blog. in fact, the concept of sponsored post is so effective that the results prove by itself. If you have a good business, bloggers try it out, readers are more influenced to show the similar thoughts. gaining the trust of fellow bloggers will improve advertisers business significantly and those CTR is just another strong evidence to support it. :)

ceiling fan?

almost every home utilizes at least on or two ceiling fans. and it has come to my attention that most people will use the normal white painted ceiling fan. but doesnt it seem to outdated? nowadays fans do not bring just the 'wind' to your house anymore, it IS fashion and interior decoration. dun believe? how many ceiling fans do you know then?

how bout casablanca fans? no its not a movie! its a ceiling fan! of course they added the unique twist and design that will make your house so modern. oh of course thats not all, the fan is coated with titanium! not only does it sounds flashy, it is built flashy.

hmnn theres also fanimation ceiling fans that features nature as theme. definitely a must for nature lovers who wants their room to be exactly nature-like. the colour gives you a soothing view and the breeze from it-so nature like.

of course if there anyone who are looking for classic fans instead theres
minka aire fans which features designs that will take you back to the old traditional ways. this is a must for those who wants to preserve their traditional look-like house. of course we do not want a traditional themed room or restaurant to be spoilt by modern looking fans. :p

if theres any type of ceiling fans you are looking for, you will get them at farreys


its no longer a lonely world out there

well if you think you are too lonely and need a life partner, think of what you need to do. of course, you cant blame the world for not letting you have a partner while you are hiding at your very own home. but now theres solution. you will need Free Online Dating that will spice up your life.

dun grumble if you dont have a life partner. haha i mean yes we all do sometimes rant bout us being single. well you gotta do something about it then. of course, we are all just so jealous with lovely dovey couples around us.

of course you dont have to be a superstar to get a partner dont we? theres tonnes of features, all packed in a clean and easy to use site. of course, its free. why pay to look for a partner through dating agency when you can find it online with the comprehensive and detailed search button on that site?

apart from posting videos and pictures, you get to restrict your profile so that only certain people sees you. of course we all dont want stalkers :p

besides all those, you get a fully customizable profile page, add in your pictures, interests and hobby. the best thing is that we dont have to actually browse through everyone like a catalogue. that will talke lots of time. instead they will ideally match your personality with someone else. that way, you will share the same interest and not get bored at each other.

of course if thats not enough, how bout some dating advices for a change. a simple change can make your life from miserable anti-social to lots and lots of friends, plus life partner :)

so go ahead and spread the love. he/she may be just right there waiting for you. personally i think this site will help alot. in case you dont know, a lot of people is still single because they are shy and they never dared to speak out. and some because of tiny misunderstandings. but everyone knows the internet. kisscafe connects everyone through the internet. and voila, you even get to reach out for each other through kisscafe blogs.

plus some thing super nice is that you get to use their feature Video Instant Messenger. who says that you need to meet up to be dating? its safe and convenient! you cant find any other Free Online Dating that provides you with great services like this all at no cost.

Why should you throw away your handphone?

almost everyone in this whole wide world is uing a phone. my sister who is just 13 already have a handphonew of her own. so what is the whole idea of this handphone thing?
Rob Beschizza gets in depth with top ten reasons why we should throw our handphones away.

its a good read!
Among the reasons are:

It makes your life more complicated
It's horribly expensive
Total Cost of Ownership. Apply that idea to everything, not just cars and mortgages. The fact is that most cellphones will cost you thousands over the life of the contract. Short of paying-as-you-go with a Wal-Mart crapdybar, you're in it for a good $1,000, and about $2,000 or so with a smartphone.
It enslaves you to a one-sided contract

It makes you perpetually available

It must constantly be recharged
Unless you want to hoik around a brick, the chances are you're recharging it daily. Screw fuel-cells: with WiFi, BlueTooth, WWAN and whatever else, we need AAA-size disposable fission reactors to keep these buggers awake

It knows where you are
GPS is in every box, but you can't use it for much. The government loves to watch them without warrants or probable cause: if it's in your pocket, you are Robocop and The Man is Dick Jones.

It encourages stupid people to become a public menace
Forget about whether talking on cellphones while driving should be illegal: the fact remains that it is stupid. I know that you are perfectly capable of the mental gymnastics required for all this — you are a hypercephalic Gadget Lab reader — but it's best that you stop now, so as not to encourage lesser minds to attempt similar feats. Some are now being caught texting while driving. Just pull the car over, for heaven's sake!



and many more here . its a really good read and i had a good LOL over it. think about it. it does makes sense!




spring coupons anyone?

its spring and its time for spring cleaning. and its also the time the house gets empty. of course fill whats empty, time for shopping spree from the convenience of your home. what do you mean theres no discounts? of course, good stuffs dont come to us that easy isnt it. especially when we are talking about crazy discounts availabe just for those who wants it. its all easy and simple with online coupons
. yes they are something so popular today almost everyone is talking about it.

no if you want coupons for good stuffs, they provide you with good coupons of course. thats discount of th retail prices! ive been using targus backpacks for my laptop for some time now and i cant believe it when campusa offers 50% off all the targus backpacks! thats too incredible for such good quality bags. it never fails to give me the satisfaction holding one that i will go for targus for protection, style and comfort. of course when you checkout, be sure to key in your coupon code.

hmnn decorating gardens? looking for potted plans that enhances your garden and makes your neighbors get jealous at the scent of the flowers by buying them at low prices. now for every $50 you spend, you get $20 off. now thats a great deal! of course, just put in your coupon code. get them at michiganbulb
