A few Cactus Brick club members went to Portland for Bricks Cascade. This was a gathering of over 500 AFOLs (Adult Fans of Lego) that displayed over 1400 MOCs (My Own Creations). They had over 9,000 visitors on the 2 public days. We had a collaboration City and Train layout. Here are a few pictures of it.
We had a great display at Fan Fusion 2024. We had a 39′ x 40′ area that was broken down into 4 sections. Our themed display this year was Western (25′ x 7.5′). We also had a Pod Racing scene on Tatooine. And our normal City/Train layout with a new parade scene, a zoo and a movie studio scene as well as a huge crane. Here are some pictures of the event:
The following image shows the plans that we used for the layout.
