Luke Skywalker shave

Work in Progress: Big Spaceship

Work in Progress: the largest spaceship I will be building from almost 20 years of LEGO Space sets. Also the 2nd largest set from that period, behind only the Futuron monorail.

Other Color Domes

Space sets with quarter domes in yellow, neon green, and neon orange from 1987-93. Nice parts use as a gigantic windscreen in the Mega Core Magnetizer.

The quarter dome made one final appearance in 1998 (in a new color) but not in a Space set! (More on that later)

So is your Micro.blog anniversary 1 year from when you joined or 1 year from your first post? Because I signed up 1 year ago today. Since then I’ve been primarily posting to my own blog and letting a bot cross-post to Twitter.

1k swim

Tonight I swam 1 km for the first time. My Watch presented me with this award. We joined a pool in mid-November and have been trying to swim at least 3x a week. (The best part is the heated swim-out pool with jets and bubbles for after. Especially when it’s snowing.)
