Maple Sugaring

Post by soccerkid6 »

Mattiusxavier suggested that I build a MOC showing maple syrup being made, I thought it was a great idea and after finishing some other builds was able to make this. The process of making Maple Syrup is pretty simple, in the later winter/early spring you tap Maple trees and hang buckets to collect their sap. Then that sap is gathered and heated to evaporate much of the water from the sap and make syrup. There is a full interior in the cabin.

Very nice build, I love the irregular base and the rickety look to the cabin. The subject matter is not something often tackled, and it's always great to see new topics explored in the world of LEGO Castle. :)

Not a subject you see covered often, that's to say! But I like the way you have done it, the fire effect looks good, not to mention the smoke and the irregular base.
