Lego Cray-1 Supercomputer - Building Instructions

A few people have requested instructions to build their own Lego Cray-1 - As a result I've published the instructions for the build that I made of The National Museum Of Computing here on my blog as a pdf download - The original Cray-1 was modular in it's design and the instructions are for one "module" - I think you can make a complete Cray-1 "Ring" with 8 Modules
Thanks for you support

Lego Cray At The National Museum Of Computing (UK)

As this Ideas project draws to a close here are a couple of final updates - a version of this Lego Cray-1 build was installed at The National Museum Of Computing here in the UK (which has it's own Cray-1 Supercomputer) - The museum, at the historic Bletchley Park site near Milton Keynes, is definitely worth a visit!

Lego At Chippewa Falls

To celebrate reaching 100 supporters and inspired by some of Lee Friedlander’s photographs of his visit to the Cray manufacturing facility in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin in 1986, I’ve created some photos of "Lego at Chippewa Falls". Thanks to everyone for their support so far and please keep sharing the Cray-1 Supercomputer with your friends and family. Looking forward to providing another update at 500 supporters!
