  • Опубліковано 21 гру 2017
  • A kinetic LEGO sculpture, or automaton, of two figures paddling a canoe. It's designed in the style of the Voyageurs, who were French Canadian fur traders, and built in celebration of Canada's 150th anniversary year.
    It can be manually operated with a hand crank, or motorized using the LEGO Power Functions system.
    You can find more information about this model, and all my other creations, on my website:

    Your stuff is too good. Nice to see you incorporating history into your builds as well.

    Personally I think this is the greatest thing you've designed. LEGO is missing out not marketing these designs! :P

    I don’t think any amount of time building with legos would I think of something as amazing as this... so fluid and lively!

    You've put multiple things on Lego ideas, but have you ever put or thought about putting your kinetic sculptures up? I think you could easily reach 10,000 votes with them.

      I honestly think that lego might consider this set, because it’s something different to their style

      Thanks! Yeah, probably. Definitely some interesting motion going on between the oars, arms and torso.

    It's so nice to see that you choose to build something based on the French Canadians as we were mostly forgotten in the official celebration. You can see this very well in the CD set of "Canada 150: A Celebration of Music" where they manage to put 150 songs together and none of them was in French. Luckily, people like you make the difference for French Canadians, making us feel like we are a part of that country after all.

  • @nedisahonkey

    Not even Canadian but what a lovely way to honor your nation's history. I've always been fascinated by the history of the Voyaguers and the Hudson Bay company.
