Building with BuffaLUG:
A Growing Guide to LEGO Creativity and Technique
Building with BuffaLUG is an ongoing initiative to share LEGO building techniques with both our local Western New York community and fans around the world. While many of the methods we highlight are widely used in the global LEGO scene, they may be new to builders in our region—or to anyone just starting out.
This page is designed to make creative LEGO building more accessible. Whether you're just getting started or looking to expand your skills, you'll find helpful insights, approachable ideas, and plenty of inspiration here.
We’re just getting started—new techniques, examples, and resources will be added regularly as this project grows. No matter where you’re building from, we invite you to learn, experiment, and build with BuffaLUG. Click on any image below to explore a technique and start building!
