It just may be impossible to exhaust the creative potential of LEGO® bricks. With an active
imagination as your guide there are endless possibilities provided you follow the LEGO
Company's official (and sensible) rules. This means no cutting or tampering with bricks
creating models that shoot unapproved projectiles or using non-standard parts with any LEGO
product. After all those little precision-molded ABS bricks can be dangerous on the wrong
hands!Well toss those rules out the window.Forbidden LEGO introduces you to the type of
free-style building that LEGO's master builders do for fun in the back room. Using LEGO bricks
in combination with common household materials (from rubber bands and glue to plastic spoons
and ping-pong balls) along with some very unorthodox building techniques you'll learn to
create working models that LEGO would never endorse. Try your hand at a toy gun that shoots
LEGO plates a candy catapult a high voltage LEGO vehicle a continuous-fire ping-pong ball
launcher and other useless but incredibly fun inventions.Once you get into the spirit you'll
want to try inventing your own rule-breaking models. Forbidden Lego's authors share tips and
tricks that will inspire you and help you turn your visions into reality. Nothing's against the
rules in this book!
