We wanted to send out an update on the progress of Mystic Mountain construction.
We got delayed a bit as our poor Lego Millennium Falcon kept falling apart. I built it last year for fun and never displayed it, so it went from box to box, corner to corner, shedding pieces and parts as it went......which then became property.....and dinner....for Sprite, our eat-anything dog.
So, before he ended up with the entire craft in his stomach, I decided to take it apart, piece by piece, and start over again...this time with a bottle of glue! (For those of you who saw The Lego Movie, I know you are hating me right now).
It took a while, but I finally got the thing rebuilt and it is now together permanently and ready to be hung.
So that brings me back to Mystic Mountain, and yes, I worked on it some more last night. I am happy to report that The Flipper is now ready to be stored until installation day. The model is finished complete with lighting. Once installed, all it will need is a few touchups. I am also considering hot gluing the electrical wires underneath the base so as not to affect what they are attached to above which was happening anytime I had to move the model. But for now, it slides into storage.
Next, we go back to the lighting work on our log ride!
