  • This is a tutorial for building six, simple, Brick Bending designs with a WLWYB geometric LEGO kit. If you need a gift for that person in your life who has everything--I promise you they don't have this. 😁 These kits help support this channel, as well as a great company that supports custom LEGO moc creators.
    Note: Caveman minifig (and friend) not included. They're very happy living with me at the moment.

      I like his builds and am happy to see him grow, but 100$ for 500 pieces which are mainly little 2x1 bricks is a total rip-off. You can buy brand new pieces in bulk for 3-4ct per brick instead of 20ct. Really disappointed to see him do something like this

      @@Kyleman51 Yes, real Lego is very expensive and people rightfully give them shit for their pricing, usually it is around 11ct per piece but you get a variety of bricks that you can use to build your own stuff, not just ~4 different bricks that you shouldnt use for anything else than brickbending.
      Also no, he probably doesn‘t have to do anything now. The website he works with more than likely buys the parts and ships them, they probably did most of the design as well, he just told them, how many pieces are needed and gets a cut from the sales + advertising from the website.
      The website can buy the tiny pieces in huge bulk which leads to discounts, I guess they pay around 1ct per piece. So you tell me, someone buys Lego for $6, puts a fancy label on it and sells it for $100 and this is for some reason not outrageous?

      For black bricks it's very unlikely you'd ever break one building these designs. But over time it will definitely leave small stress marks on the bricks, and they start to fit more loosely. But if you're only making curved geometric art, that's a feature and not a bug.

      @@UltimatePerfection Non-discounted LEGO sets are typically priced in the neighborhood of US$0.10 per brick-usually rounded up to the nearest marketing-savvy number (e.g. $34.99, $59.99). It goes a little lower if there are more small pieces (studs & other 1x1s are in the $0.03 to $0.06 range), but that's enough to give you a general ballpark.
      In the US, the only time I've consistently seen discounts on new LEGO are the Classic sets put together as part of "Black Friday" sales. Having bought a number of these discounted Classic sets, I can confirm that they typically make up half or more of their piece count in the smaller/cheaper pieces. Furthermore, these discounted sets are designed to be "Starter" sets to get kids hooked on LEGO-so they contain a *very wide* variety of piece shapes and not very many of any individual shape. From one of the 1500-piece sets I picked up on a BF sale (and still had intact, with no pieces in other builds) I didn't actually have enough 1x2 bricks & plates to do even the simplest of the designs shown in this video.
      For example, the largest Classic set actually sold directly by LEGO is this one: www.lego.com/en-us/product/bricks-bricks-plates-11717 at just over 1,500 pieces for MSRP $69.99. It contains approximately 210 1x2 bricks and 52 1x2 plates. If you can get your hands on 4500+ new LEGO pieces for under $70, it might be worth it to buy them up and resell the pieces individually on bricklink; that's a pretty hefty discount, even if it were 4,500 studs!
      Alternatively, you can go to bricklink or use LEGO's pick-a-brick and buy the 517 pieces in this set (in your choice of colors) for around $50-$60.

    can you make more than one at a time with this kit? or is there just enough bricks for only one design at a time?

    What lego color is most durable? I want to get into brick bending, but I don't have much money so I need to buy bricks that will last several builds. I know brown bricks are the worst, but which are the best?
