Here's an overview of the steps in this article: Draw out the space available using your design tool of choice. Decide on general areas: water vs dry land, use zoning, etc and sketch in on your plan. Decide on roadway width and construction method, sketch in roads on your plan. Decide on train track and monorail routes and train width

My son and I have built a pretty damn cool lego city using current/recent lego city "road plate" sets on an 8x3 home depot folding table. We have the current low budget lego city police station, fire station, hospital, house, school, lifeguard tower, train station, 3in1 castle, and electric freight train circling it plus lots of vehicles and smaller sets---any suggestions for like a 10-11'+x4

I doubt you're going to be putting hundreds of pounds on each table, so I'd say the biggest obstacle would be stability and consistent height. So, I'd recommend just going for some mid-range folding tables. They'll get the job done. They should run you maybe $35-50 each. 2.

Doors on supports - 80″ x 30″ doors are a convenient size for baseplates, and you can often find used doors cheap or free. Even surplus bifold doors can be pressed into service. Supports can be folding table legs as used on banquet tables (you may need to strengthen the door where you attach the legs), sawhorses, upturned garbage cans

PREVENT YOUR LEGO CITY TABLE FROM SAGGING. This is a very simple process of attaching the brackets to the table and screwing in the legs as you can see in the video. I would personally recommend a 5th leg in the middle for stability. Melamine and common boards, even at 48″, will sag and warp over time with the weight of the modulars!

To maximize fun and personal buy-in with your LEGO City projects, try to keep all of this in mind, and plan and then execute. Not to mention that planning will help you maximize space! Take a look at the video below for "How to Start a LEGO City in 2021" for additional tips on baseplates, tables, general setup, and more.

Finally got enough backlog to justify building a city in my basement. I have numerous modulars and other buildings that i want to incorporate into a city. I don't have any street plates so i want to know what the best way to get this going would be. Pictures would be appreciated, thank you! How big of a table would be a good start?

Lay out your baseplates on the plywood using regular plates as spacers (i.e., attach plates across the boundaries between two baseplates in order to maintain correct spacing. Randomly distribute plate elements across the surfaces of the baseplates. Clamp a second piece of plywood across the top of the plate elements. Let dry/cure for 24 hours.

The ultimate Lego fan needs a great building space and this Lego table does just that. This project will show you how to have building space, mobile storage space, and more storage space on the walls. There are places to keep instruction manuals and projects as well as Legos organized by color. There are so many options for this project.

If you want to go big, cheap, and don't mind if it's kinda ugly, you can go to some place like Harbor Freight Tools and get a couple of sawhorses (as cheap as $12-15 each) and then grab whatever size of plywood you want at Home Depot and lay that on top. Another way to go is to keep an eye on Craigslist (or whatever local Swip-Swap type of

I'm building my own. I found that 30x60 melamine boards from Home Depot fits eight 48x48 baseplates in a 2x4 configuration (or 3x6 for 32x32 baseplates). I have built and joined together 8 of those in series to build my modular city.

Write the set name on each card along with its height. Next, draw out (to scale) the outline of the area space you have allocated for your LEGO city on a large piece of paper. You can now put the different cards representing the sets you want to get and position them on the map of your city layout.

The first step is to choose which mini-figures to add to your city. LEGO offers a wide variety of mini-figures representing different professions, hobbies, and styles. Consider the diversity of a real city when selecting your mini-figures. Placement is key to creating a believable city scene.

Don't get rounded corners. Don't get tables that fold in half. Don't get tables you can't make or buy again easily (your city will grow). The Ikea Linnmon tables are pretty common. If you're decent at woodworking you can build your own. Truthfully, those are about the only two options people choose. As for building your own, lots of people use

my solution for building a LEGO city block within a limited area: a rotating table top, so it can be viewed, played with, and worked on from all angles :)) Other ... ..the table top itself is 48×48 inches/ ~120cm square. my display area is 144x144 studs, so 4.5×4.5 baseplates. but that could be modified depending on the area you're working with.
