Lego City Update, Trains, Roads and Lanscape 

Thanks, currently I have no.plans for an airport but that's not to say I won't do one again in the future. The plugs and led lights are all available on my website www.bevinsbricks.com and yes I do intend on doing a log cabin or house or two in the woods :)

Thanks man, yeah I'm digging the uses of those connectors. They are very handy, can't wait to show everyone my next new connector.

Thanks

Thanks Nate

Thank you so much

Thanks, the connectors are also for sell on my website www.bevinsbricks.com

i remembering thinking of how i could do the same thing with my lego technic cars when building a stand for them.

Awesome and from what I saw comparing to other companies I am 1dollar cheaper than my next closest competitor and in my opinion mine are better quality as they are springing. :) which allows for smaller gaps and a better connection.

Compared to other companies mine are cheap @5.99

Thanks so much I appreciate it

Thanks

Thanks and yes doing great. Hope this finds you well. :)

Thanks

Yes wood is a great alternative solution. It's probably the best and then use Lego to cover the facade.

Thanks for watching and those connectors are available on my website www.bevinsbricks.com

Lol, they are a very useful and affordable.part. I bought a ton when they first released and were deeply discounted.

Can never have enough trains. :)

Absolutely

Hopefully I'm back on track to start doing city work again. So no shouldn't be as long a wait till the next one :)

😀

Thanks Rob

Thanks and don't say no yet I had a thought last night on how I can possibly keep the brick built and use my new plugs :) which are available on my website BTW 😀

@@BevinsBricks I did it back in 2021 with the brick built road plates. I tried posting a link to a video of it but it keeps getting removed. You can put the power board under the sidewalk on the brick built ones, it also makes it easy to pop up a small section of sidewalk to plug in and unplug the MILS plates if they have to be moved.

Thanks, never really thought about that but it's a great idea.

Thank you :D

I like your thinking, May need to try something like that

For reach I recommend 60 width x whatever length works best. With 60 it's 6 32x32 or 4 48x48

Thanks, I have a bunch of train sets I want to put together so I will probably add a train yard somewhere also to store them all

Thanks

Lmao, yeah I'm still thinking about staying brick built also, as I had an idea last night on how to keep them. Burps are awesome and a fast way to mountain up. :)

Thanks so much I appreciate it, gonna try a new idea tonight to use the connectors on a brick built road as well.

Thanks and yes those connectors are awesome and available on my website www.bevinsbricks.com , I'm with you they don't look real bad but most people hate them.

Thanks my friend

Thanks so much I appreciate it, also the plugs I show and many more lighting products are all available on my website www.bevinsbricks.com

Now that I have a layout, I may finally build some of my train sets

@@BevinsBricks cool and just this past weekend i started to rebuild my Lego airforce base and slowly begin to turn it into a castle because i already have a bigger table that only needs one more board on it before i add the base plates to it

Thanks

Thanks buddy

😀

The connectors are for sale on my website :)

@@BevinsBricks I am based in the uk

Thanks John I appreciate it. Have many more tricks up my sleeve coming soon.

@@BevinsBricks nice can’t wait to see.

😀

UK is available now and ships for a flat rate of I think $19 I have a priority option also but it's very expensive.

@@BevinsBricks Yes! Thank you :) I cant wait to light up some of my city

Thanks buddy, I'm trying to ho at it this time with more of a Train builders display and less of a city display. Figure I can always add more tables later if I want a large city space.

It's the easiest way :)

Thanks man, I thought they did just very expensive. Or am I thinking of fx Bricks?

@@BevinsBricks I think you’re thinking of fx bricks. I haven’t looked at their products in a long time (probably since they came out) but I thought they only made straight track and curves anyway? No switch tracks 🤷🏽‍♂️

Thanks 😊

Sorry but my Job, family and business take priority over videos.

Thanks, not sure I'll do wayne manor but I do want a house on the hill and a batcave would be a cool addition.

Hey buddy, hope your doing well. As for the plug styles. A few companies use 1.25mm plugs which are large and most other companies use .8mm which is why I switched, plus they are so much easier to hide. Brick Stuff is the odd ball company though. I believe all his plugs are 1mm jst. Not sure why they went against the grain of all other companies. I've never purchased any of there products as I always felt they were very over priced. But from what I have heard from others his quality is good. I sell adapters to go from 1.25 to .8mm and I think brickstuff also sells adapters that go from .8mm to 1mm . Hope that helps, I keep meaning to make a video to explain all the differences and the pros and cons of them all and also a list of who is compatible with who. But I need to buy some of every product to do it 😀 If you sent me a image of his plugs on my email I should be able to confirm the size.

@@BevinsBricks I decided to use the remaining brickstuff lights that I have on hand for my current project, but I’ll definitely consider your stuff for the next project since the prices are very reasonable. I was just unsure of the compatibility between the two systems.

They recently announced they are going to change a lot of there products. So I think they will be more compatible in the future. Lights aren't cheap so don't blame you at all for sticking with what you already have on hand :)

@@BevinsBricks Another factor that unfortunately played a role is that your store was sold out of the wireless connectors which I really needed. They must be popular! I’ll certainly keep my eyes open for the next model. I also appreciate that you sell individual lights verses 4 packs of them.

The connectors were back in stock as of yesterday :). Yes they are very popular. Slowly learning what I need to focus on stocking as I continually add new products. You know it's funny, a lot of places sell lights in 3 and 4 packs and what kills me is you would think they would be cheaper that way. But they are still more expensive than what I offer. I'm hoping over the new few months to have a better stock of parts so I don't run out of things so fast. It's been difficult trying to build up a supply to give a wide range of options and keep everything in stock.

I would like to make them work at some point. I can make them flash but functional as up and down would be a awesome task.

@@BevinsBricks I agree. I bet your background would be super useful doing this task too.

I'm also curious if you plan to do a small harbor area.

I think I have a way to use those connections on brick built roads also, the idea came to me last night. Those connectors are also available on my website www.bevinsbricks.com

Thanks, yes fxbricks does have awesome track. I have debated trying it but ATM funds are focused on launching my new lighting products.

Yes but I already own this and it costs me nothing to use

Yeah I screwed up trying to get this posted and forgot to add that clip, it's on the far end of the city next to the train tracks, I'll make sure to show it in the next update. :)

Hello

2x4 for the frame and the top is 1/2 inch plywood bcx which is sanded on 1 side.

@@BevinsBricks So Then I shouldn't be considering MDF for the tabletops and legs and pretty much all of the table builds?

I'm thinking .aube a small log cabin or 2 :)

Could always bevinize the current A Frame cabin

I'm gonna release adapters in the next few days to make it work with that style which is a 1.25mm plug. Blinky, brickloot and lightailing all use the 1.25 system.

That's awesome they are a lot of fun to build

@@BevinsBricks yep but they are price and i don’t hav much money

I sell my own connectors and lighting system now and yes to my knowledge I am the cheapest and best quality version available on the market. Www.bevinsbricks.com

They are my lighting products and I sell them on my site www.bevinsbricks.com

@@BevinsBricks Oh thanks I finally found them. I'm definitely going to get some of your lighting stuff. Price is reasonable, I can fully customize my own setup for a modular. I don't really know much about lighting, but I'll figure it out hahah. Are there lights you sell that flashes? Also, is there a possibility for lighting up a lightsaber without a wire? Like tiny batteries? Keep up the great work!

Yes he is 😀

Lol, it's a great way to keep everything modular. I'm working on a second method for brick built roads also.

Trying to build with only what I own for a change and power functions isn't 9v track compatible that I'm aware of.
