It's much like an EBay for LEGO's.
"You can not only buy LEGO's there, you can find ideas, instructions with the random LEGO's that are at your house," Fontana said.You can also check out the app called BrickIt, which can scan any pile of bricks and turn the mayhem into magic. The app offers directions for a variety of instructions and templates.
"You can make ice cream a popsicle, a house...." he said. ""I've got cherries... a boat, a duckling... and what's really cool is if you click on it, it tells you all the steps."
