Lighting Your LEGO City

Presentation (with demonstration) on how to rig up custom LED lights.  Almost no soldering required, easy to repair in the field (at a show!) and very easy to route through your own MOC’s.  Check out my full presentation here, or download the PowerPoint (PPTX) or Open Document Presentation (ODP)
