How to build a Lego Model
gthreepwood1001 started this discussion in General Discussion

Hello everyone,

im very new to this site here and im really impressed of the quality and content. What i like to know is there a tutorial how to rebuild a model? For example i would like to build some models from the ninjago series and i wonder how to find the specific manuals and parts. Can someone help me?

and as a last question to all creators here: How much time in general do you need to construct an average model?

Thank you very much!!

To rebuild existing models, a good starting point is brickset.com
You can find all sets data including the inventory and a link to download the instructions.

ok, thank you very much. i will try ... cheerz

By the way every virtual set will be very long to build and I think there's no way that the makers of the virtual thing could make it any easier

Not that long. This is quicker to build on Mecabricks than it is in real life.

Some people like me are more faster in real life since we have built a lot of sets but online people will of course know what shortcuts and other stuff to make it faster

There is not really such a thing as real life and online here 😉
I own and have built countless sets and most people here also build with real parts.
But it is true that knowing the shortcuts help a lot to go faster.
