Photos of the completed GMLTC Plummer Building Project

We started construction on Friday, September 10th.  We worked until
3a.m. on Monday the 13th, before calling it quits for the weekend.

We went back to Rochester on Saturday, September 25th, and finished
it up with another 13+ hour day.

GMLTC club members involved with the building are Conan Collopy, 
Steve Demlow, Abner Finley, John Gerlach, John Kelly, Judy Payne, 
Stein Settergren and Bill Toenjes.  We also want to thank ALL the 
volunteers - especially all the kids! - who came by and helped 
us during the building.

The building was primarily designed by Steve Demlow, the tower top 
was designed by John Gerlach.  Steve put in over 150 hours of MLCAD
design time, John put in about 25 hours of MLCAD design time.

From the base to the top of the tower is just over 7 feet.  Including
the base the height is over 7 1/2 feet.  We have no idea how much
it weighs, the Mayo Clinic had to use a forklift to get it where it
is now!  We estimate the model has between 55,000 and 60,000
LEGO pieces, in around a dozen different colors, mostly tan.

These images are all scaled to around 640x480 resolution, if for 
some reason you want the full-sized image drop me an email.

The GMLTC wants to thank Jake McKee and The LEGO(r) Company
for their support with this project, we couldn't have done it without
their bricks!  We also want to thank the Rochester Neighborhood
Resource Center (http://www.rneighbors.org) for getting us involved
with this project, and for taking such good care of us while we were
down there!

The completed model will be on permanent display in one of the
Mayo Clinic buildings.  Currently it's in the Siebens Building, but
that could change in the future.
