My Interest in Building Legos
Engineering is a science that has many fields where one can specialize. Still, in most cases, one's specialization is greatly influenced by the interest or admiration he has in various fields. I have always liked to venture into construction engineering in my engineering career, and what impressed me most was my love for building legos. LEGO blocks originated in Billund, Denmark, in the workshop of Ole Kirk Christiansen, who began making wooden toys in 1932 ( Augustyn).  Legos, in general terms, refer to construction toys consisting of the interlocking plastic building block. Lego pieces can be assembled and connected in many ways to construct objects, including vehicles, buildings, and many other designs like working robots. The good thing about Legos is that what is constructed can be taken apart again, and the pieces can be reused to make new things. This is why each Lego piece must be a product of a series of calculations to ensure that it is manufactured to an exacting degree of precision to ensure that when two pieces are engaged, they will firmly fit and can still be easily disassembled. This makes it an excellent career for anyone who loves calculations.
When I was a kid, I used to enjoy playing with my Lego toys. I found them easy to use to create designs and memories from ordinary objects, such as houses, cars, and tractors. This greatly influenced my love for Legos. I find it very fun and easy to build them. This is a hobby that I have been enjoying doing for 11 years now. On average, I can build a 6000-piece set in four days. One of my memorable experiences was when I built...
