MOC BUILDER

I've enjoyed messing about with Lego for most of my life (I'm now in my mid-forties), but only began building my own models quite recently. Although I'm a creative person by nature (I'm a musician in my day job), I'd never even considered that I might be able to create something of my own design. Although it's taken me many years to get around to realising that it's something that I can do, I'm very pleased it's finally happened - it's so much fun!... I've been a fan of Lego Technic since I was about eight years old. My first set was 8851, the pneumatic excavator that was released in 1984. I remember getting this for my birthday and building it with my dad on our kitchen table. I'm still very fond of it, though it seems incredibly dated now. I remained a Lego fan until my early teens when, like many people, other interests took hold, and the Lego went in the attic.
