One of the things I love about the LEGO City 60292 set is that it came with a car wash. But I had 2 problems with it. First, it doesn’t fit Speed Champions cars. Second, it was a bit basic. So here’s how I’ve built my LEGO moc with horizontal brushes, sprays, a dryer that moves with the car. And most importantly, takes Speed Champions cars!
P.S. Don’t worry, I don’t sing Car Wash by Rose Royce in the video, promise. But here’s a link if you want to have it stuck in your head too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3v8I5egzoMo

About this Video:
Why build a working LEGO City Car wash? Honestly, because the engineering in them has always fascinated me from an early age. That, and it’s a lot of fun to see the cars going through.
There were quite a few challenges – not having the right parts being one – such as how and where to level the horizontal brush so it doesn’t hit anything.
That rear dryer took a few versions to get right and make compact (and heavy enough) to make it work in the space. The dryer is connected to a large ventilation fan via a hose. It does look like there’s an issue with the ventilation fan, but luckily the series 22 Robot Repair Tech Minifigure is there working on it!
Then all the little details like the hose and foam sprays at the front. All in all, it was a fun little project that I just had to tackle as it had been sitting on my desk calling to me to “fix” it!
I hope you enjoy it and this will be added to my soon to be updated Intergalactic Car & Spaceship Service Station LEGO City MOC: https://youtu.be/x9GXLj5EPLg

This video is a review of the 2022 LEGO City Mobile Crane (60324). I will start by saying I’m a huge crane fan but I’ve tried not to let that bias my review because this is a great set and exactly what the LEGO City 2022 lineup needed!

It’s been a long time since I did one of these, so here we go. An update on my custom LEGO city. I’m going to focus on doing small parts of it rather than trying to do everything at once moving forward. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
This is a showcase of my LEGO Bro Thor’s Lighthouse MOC. It’s on the large side and features a dock, lighthouse, lighthouse keeper cottage, Bro Thor’s New Asgard and a dunny. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!

About this Video:
This moc is an upgrade of my previous lighthouse moc. I wanted to add in more detail and a side building. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esjCkYP4y7g
One of the building blocks for the idea for this LEGO MOC was the inclusion of Bro Thor’s Apartment (set 76200). In the movies it on rocks near the ocean, so I thought why not put it on an island! But I needed to model the interior properly and close the 2 open sides off, so it now has a bed and a kitchen.
Above it is the original Lighthouse Keepers cottage from LEGO Creator Set 31051. And that conveniently has an outdoor Dunny (above Thor’s window 😉). One area I put a lot of work into was the flora over that top area and the rocks surrounding Thor’s cabin. I had to work within the limits of the space but I think it came out well.
The Lighthouse tower itself is on the next island and for that, I’m rather proud of the curved staircase I built in the rocks leading up to the tower. I think they came out very well. The lighthouse itself is almost untouched except for another layer of bricks in each level and one extra level of colour.
In the rest of the scene, there is a small mooring for the LEGO Hidden Side Fishing Boat and the whole scene is designed to connect the amazing LEGO Ideas Fishing Shore (21310).
As you can tell, I put a lot of time into this MOC and I hope it shows!

About this video
This is a super simple tutorial that shows you how to build these simple LEGO Furniture display cabinets. I originally built them to be used in the Ground floor of my Sanctum Sanctorum to reflect the ones seen in the various Spider-man and Marvel movies.
I’ve furnished mine with a Ninjago Sword, Star Wars Stormtrooper helmet, some potions, a magic floating key. But you can add whatever your want.
