Hi, I'm BrickPig and I'm a Boomer in my sixties. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and am a retired Mechanical Engineer.
Â
Ever since I disassembled my childhood toys I've been fascinated by how things work. I fed that passion with plastic scale models and model railroading. Along the way I picked up some basic fabrication and construction skills. In college I obtained a BS in Mechanical Engineering. Along the way I did some light construction work on the side for relatives. Today I continue to feed my passions by customizing my 2011 Scion xB, constructing my own LEGO projects, or collecting what I consider interesting or "clever" motorized or Transforming toys. I invite you to have a look around my site, and enjoy!
