Lately I've been attempting to build some realistic-
looking
trees out of our Lego collection. Coming up with sturdy
ways
to have organic angles and limbs out of plane is always a
bit
of a challenge as we AFOLs know. It would be nice to
have a
few Lego bits that are fractal-ish in basic
geometry.
Perhaps
as simple as a V-branch upon which you can place more
V-
branches until you run out of space.
Some Mandelbrot leaves would be nice. Mold design
should
be simple. Just have the machine pull in a one and a
half
dimensional direction...

I love both lego and fractals +1 |
|
|
Be interesting to see if there was more or less foot injury
potential with these. [+] |

My granddaughter is the Queen of all that is Lego. She builds
shit faster than anyone I've ever seen. She is also the fastest
and most patient puzzle completer. Bigger the better. |
|
|
Anyway, I'll stop with the bragging and just say this, she would
love to be able to make a forest. I'm so very sure. So +++++ |

Reminds me of Penrose tiles. |
