Towers look great and be interested in seeing final form and how to. Where I live the eastern end of the state has dams . So western side has transmission towers. So cool idea to add to the city landscape.
Wow the tower looks amazing. Probably a well known sight to most people but a highly overlook detail that would be a great add to any city really. I am loving all these great ideas and as always thanks for sharing.
Bevins Bricks I checked out some images on line of high power lines and there are all sorts of designes however yours looks really good. I don’t know how else you could “soften” the blocky-ness. The ones I was looking at are basically metal structures with lots of triangle and diamond design in them. Maybe you could make them using bars and arms? Might look to dainty?
I think that is awesome and definitely different. I honestly think it needs a middle row that is an in between size ( like different steps going up). Maybe a few tiles on the outside of the bricks going up, just the center parts. The bottom legs are perfect.
@@BevinsBricksWorld i was thinking the lower one should be on top and have the longer ones lower i have a few on my property and the smaller one has a longer arm low and a small one up top . other then that they looks fanstastic
@@BevinsBricksWorld Hey haha!!! I skip some words... I wanted to say: That explain why we have electricity in our house. I'm so sorry my english is weird when I skip words haha!! 🤘🏻😁🤘🏻
Huge fan. Envious of all the space in your Lego studio. Keep up the awesome content I have been following for almost 2 years. Your a true Lego master! 🤟🏻
It looks pretty impressive to me and something a lot of Lego city’s owners I’m sure would like to add. The main problem of course is space which is not an issue in your case. I’m looking forward to seeing a few lined up around your city and linked up.
My little 3 year old son is obsess with this power towers (he calls them moomoo for some reason....) and he wants a lego one for his 4th birthday! I dont think i can build this for him!!! 🤯 Amazing job you have done!!!
@@BevinsBricksWorld aw ok cool! I will try then.... will report back to you if do! He likes things like windmills, electric power towers, cranes, tornado sirens as he calls them lol..... and he pretends to build them with his lego bits lol but yeah recently is all about electric towers
With a view of these buildings. It makes your City even more realistic. But WOW they are tall. I think you should place some cows around the base of it. Like in real. Watchers of the video can see it then in perspective. I'll hope you get much sleep. So thete will be more of these awesome ideas. 😁😂👍👍
Looks good, but query how it fits into your city scale wise and is there going to be a sub power plant to convert to town supply? I would consider using a smaller more compact design (at least width wise). Some are even becoming more visually attractive too.
Bevins Bricks - for scale I was meaning both in relation to the mini figure/LEGO build, but also relevance to your city. Not many towns or at least not where I live have high tension powerlines going into them, or have smaller versions as they only need a small substation rather than a larger sub station. Typically the larger pylons are reserved for bigger cities and nearer the actual power plant before all the lines go off in different directions.
Ahh, yes, the old bedtime-overload - don't I know it! :-D I like the look of this. Using the technic pieces like this is very nice and makes it look very industrial. We actually have very few of these towers in Denmark. Most of the powerlines have been put underground over the years. I remember the phone lines running on wooden poles with porcelain fittings when you were in the countryside. But, that's probably 15-20 years ago. Thanks for sharing this and keep up the great work :-)
@@BevinsBricksWorld yeah, I remember seeing that actually. When I was in SF, I remember there being a lot of wires hanging between houses though. I guess that's telephone lines!?
@@BevinsBricksWorld A power plant sounds pretty cool! Especially if it actually provides power to the lights you plan on putting in the city. A less ambitious idea could be putting in a substation? Then you could have 2-3 towers and then drop it down into a substation. This would prevent the towers from dominating your skyline.
Looks great Daryl. Your Lego barn came together very nicely. I bet it is very relaxing to spend time out there building. Glad to see you are back up and running. It’s very cool to watch your new city come back to life one step at a time. Thanks for sharing all that you do. Very inspiring.
Really enjoy your content! Hoping I can build to that level someday......new LEGO fan just getting started. I’ve posted a few videos on my channel but I want to do a custom mix of my own.
Bevins Bricks I’ve been review sneakers for awhile on UA-cam and got bored with that hobby and always wanted to get into LEGO but always felt too “old” (36yo). So far I have 9 of the modular buildings and a few City sets and debating turning my basement into a huge LEGO room.
Bevins Bricks 🤣 yea it will much better then my dining room which currently is housing my city. Really appreciate your reply’s. I think I remembered from one you’re videos you’re in Michigan. I lived in Detroit for 13 years but currently in Cincinnati. I’m planning a trip as soon as this virus crap is over to visit friends. You have any suggestions on places I should check out for LEGO? I know the LEGO store but any other 3rd party shops up there?
Looks good! I do the same thing when I’m in bed...in my head, I arrange and rearrange my lego city and think about combos of sets that would look good and/or be good for parts. Makes it hard to get to sleep sometimes.
Way too late, but only thing I'd change would be putting the 2 wires above the 3, in real life the point of the top two wires are shield wires to prevent stuff from falling on the conductors and causing huge problems
This looks great! As a power engineer, I would suggest adding the third arm as power is transmitted over three lines. Your tower is based on two parallel feeders transmission. I am enjoying your creative ideas, keep building!
Bevins Bricks I think so to, but I think they could be useful for city builders to. I can imagine there are parts of a town that is not that well modernized as a downtown part
Looks good. I like any time someone makes a piece of technical machinery for a town - the more detail the better.
Towers look great and be interested in seeing final form and how to. Where I live the eastern end of the state has dams . So western side has transmission towers. So cool idea to add to the city landscape.
Man I hope you add a few of these to your city 🤞would be quite unique
Wow the tower looks amazing. Probably a well known sight to most people but a highly overlook detail that would be a great add to any city really. I am loving all these great ideas and as always thanks for sharing.
I like it! Nice use of technics those bricks give it the look like the real thing.

You just keep coming up with these new impressive builds, very impressive 👍

Hey Daryl!!! That's a nice Power transmition Tower!! That explain why whe electricity in our houses!! Thanks to share it!!🤘🏻😁🤘🏻
@@BevinsBricksWorld Hey haha!!! I skip some words... I wanted to say:
That explain why we have electricity in our house. I'm so sorry my english is weird when I skip words haha!!
🤘🏻😁🤘🏻
You're having some cool dreams my brother 😂 Great build man... excited to see what's next and hopefully we'll see these in your city!🔥
@@BevinsBricksWorld I can relate brother 😂 Take care and have a good one my friend!🙏🏼

That looks really good. Never thought about adding those.
Love how realistic these look.
WoW its realy great
I am waiting for the how to do :)

I always thought about putting power lines in my city, they look nice

For inspiration.
That's what I was thinking about as well (the scale). A power plant could be an interesting build I reckon.
Bevins Bricks - for scale I was meaning both in relation to the mini figure/LEGO build, but also relevance to your city.

Typically the larger pylons are reserved for bigger cities and nearer the actual power plant before all the lines go off in different directions.
You could make symmetric patterns with your support struts or wires. Like, an X pattern on all 4 sides

@@BevinsBricksWorld yeah, I remember seeing that actually. When I was in SF, I remember there being a lot of wires hanging between houses though. I guess that's telephone lines!?
Great idea. Will you have a powerplant where the power comes from at one end?

Wow I was searching for it
Not even JANGSBRICKS thought of something like this
I would love a how to video on it. It's also what we have in Australia but I guess it is used internationally
@@BevinsBricksWorld I can't wait to see the final build.
Lastly, if you plan on suspending the string, use the following 2x2 dish in trans light blue as insulators.
@@BevinsBricksWorld they are typically clear glass insulators, but dark blue will work aswell

That background is legit. Where is it from?

3-phase, plus the ground on top.
You can also double or triple the lines per phase, but the sequence shown isn't realistic. Great build though.
Great job.
Can you share the parts numbers?
The instructions are for sale on my website bevinsbricks.com
Is there a video on how you can build it
@@BevinsBricksWorld no worries you are awesome
Way too late, but only thing I'd change would be putting the 2 wires above the 3, in real life the point of the top two wires are shield wires to prevent stuff from falling on the conductors and causing huge problems
You can make Russian power transmission towers 500 kv?
I would build about 3 of these.details.
@@BevinsBricksWorld I'm talking 3 towers.that would be just enough to cross my city.and I have Acton of those grey beams so instructions please.👍😀
I think it looks really awesome! 👍 it’s a great idea mate 😃
This looks great! As a power engineer, I would suggest adding the third arm as power is transmitted over three lines. Your tower is based on two parallel feeders transmission. I am enjoying your creative ideas, keep building!
This looks very good! Amazing how much detail you actually pressed in there. Now I’m thinking how would you make a WW2 era power line pole.
Bevins Bricks I think so to, but I think they could be useful for city builders to. I can imagine there are parts of a town that is not that well modernized as a downtown part
Look very different to the UK one still very cool though..💗👍💕
