Since 2018, Professor Glass has served as Director of Transforming Construction Network Plus.
It was set up in 2000, initially called BrickBay, as a marketplace to allow fans of Lego to buy and sell vintage Lego sets and retired pieces.It has since grown into the world’s largest community of Lego fans, where people can also share ideas and designs.
It was acquired by the Lego Group in 2019..Brick Link is now an extensive marketplace hosting over 10,000 vendors in 70 countries.Users can search for pieces or sets then select vendors based on region, rating, price etc..
While Lego have their own ‘Digital Designer’ configurator, Brick Link developed ‘.Brick Link Studio.
’, a free configurator that allows users to generate their own designs from a database of every piece of Lego ever manufactured..
The software has some superb features, including a ‘stability check’ to ensure the proposed design is suitably robust, a photorealistic rendering engine and an instruction-making tool to create assembly manuals in the same style as for the sets manufactured by Lego..But now there's an army behind me, a battalion.
There's like, countries with armies behind us.And I think you've probably felt the same way.
Sometimes it felt pretty lonely out there.But you know, it's not lonely anymore.
