It's been 33 years since I got the LEGO Black Seas Barracuda as a Christmas present in 1989! It's about time captain Redbeard, his parrot, and the monkey set sail in the calm waters of a lake, by the magical scenery of a small waterfall!
Black Seas Barracuda specs :
Power : 1x PowerUP 4.0 module
Steering : Thrust differential between the two propellers
Remote controller : Xiaomi Redmi 9AT
Footage was shot on LG G6 (tripod in the lake), Google Pixel 6a (indoors footage) and DJI Mavic Mini (aerial footage).

A vintage technique to make your boats watertight is to rub crayons between the bricks to act like a sealant.

@brickandgear 3 месяца назад

Can you remove the material afterwards?

@VestedUTuber 19 дней назад

@@brickandgear With a bit of effort, I'd assume. It's just a wax coating, and honestly it kinda mirrors what would be used on real boats.

Fantastic, my childhood dream ship starting to swim, can't believe it !

-Pro- amateur tip if you want to make any lego watertight : drop it into a hot bath of melted candle wax (not too hot though, don't melt your LEGO lol). Get it out of the container to get rid of the exedent. Let it dry (it solidifies quick), and all the interstices between the bricks will be filled by "joints" made of dry wax 😁. This is what I do sometimes when I'm too lazy 😅. This works well for masking too (when I paint things). The cool thing is that you can easily remove the wax and not destroy your build. (sorry, I'm French I hope my English is not too trashy ^^) _edit_ : you can also use plastidip or car covering wrap. Works pretty fine too, and cost nothing is you have some spares from an old project.

That's a bit risky. Even for me! 😅

@Hmtln-wf8ml Год назад

I want other LEGOpirate ships to float as well.

@brickandgear Год назад

If I get my hands on other ships, I'll motorize them as well!

@AydenTheCarrot Год назад

I have nether thought this would be possible. I thought about it when i was younger but never thought it could happen. Great idea!

What a wonderful job, I loved the idea of using sellotape for sealing!

@brickandgear 8 месяцев назад

Thank you! It kept the water outside quite well. I used a temporary silicone sealant for my latest build, and that did a much better job!

for a bigger ship take a styrodur plate instead of the small styropor, much more boost, for the holes under the boat I took some book binding foil from the outside.:_9
