Angelina at Waste Advantage Magazine for making a great article on the truck happen.Shawn and Julian for testing the build, and the hundreds of other kids that play tested the truck at various venues.LEGO Ideas members saabfan and Sleep圜ow (and JKBrickworks) for thoughtful feedback and advice on our project and promotion activities.Joshua Hanlon and John Hanlon of Beyond the Brick for your awesome community commitment and content and for staying late on the last day of an exhausting Brickworld Chicago to do an interview with us about the truck project.All the attendees of Brickworld Chicago 2019 that played with the truck, but especially LEGO AFOL and LEGO Ideas community leaders Boone Langston, Grant Davis, Jake Sadovich, and Tim Courtney for taking time with us as Ideas newcomers.Bricks & Minifigs Madison for hosting our truck display and the WLUG meetings, and being a solid local source of spare parts.The Wisconsin LEGO Users Group for being our introduction into the AFOL and TFOL community.Chris Meyer and the Madison hackerspace community of Sector67 for providing a place to be creative, get feedback, and pretend to (and actually by accident!) destroy the truck.Jason Allemann aka JK Brickworks for your ongoing inspiration, wonderful truck video and appreciation of our mechanical design.Also for indulging vast piles of LEGO bricks in the middle of the living room, packages from Bricklink sellers, and our focus bordering on obsession with the truck, the bin arm mechanism, and garbage trucks in general. Our family for being tireless supporters and promoters.We’d like to express our sincere gratefulness to some of the many people who have walked a part of this path along with us: Reaching 10k has been a huge bonus and it’s been humbling to feel appreciation and value in our creation through all of your positive comments. This project has provided a wealth of opportunities for us as a father and son team to learn and have fun together. And we have definitely been able to do that! What started as a shared interest in building with LEGO turned into an opportunity to learn together about LEGO digital design tools, video editing and production, digital rendering, photography/lighting, LUG membership, Brickworld conference displaying, and social media campaigning. Our attitude with this project has been to have fun and learn along the way.
