LEGO bricks are a staple in the world of hobby and home building.
But when a brick factory in Brazil was damaged last year, people everywhere wanted a piece of the action.
We were able to identify some bricks that we could use to repair the damaged brick factory, but the building itself was not up to code, so we had to get a permit.
We had a permit, but no way to see the site in person.
We couldn’t even take pictures.
We had to take a taxi to the site and park our car there.
Then, two days later, we were able a tour of the site by a Brazilian photographer and a photographer for the Guinness World Records.
The building is damaged.
We have to dig through the rubble, and we’re using a crane to do that.
We actually had to borrow the crane.
So, when we first saw the building, we thought, “Oh my gosh, we’ve got to go and dig through this building.”
We thought, we could make bricks in Brazil, but it’s going to take years to get there.
We’d only be able to do the construction of the factory, so I was trying to figure out how to get our team in the building at the time, but that’s the last thing we could do, because the building was completely destroyed.
We’re hoping to start building a factory somewhere soon.
The plan is to get in the factory and start building brick bricks, but there are no details about where the building will be.
