What You’ll Need

To make a Lego baseball bat, you will need the following:
-24 Lego bricks (1x2 size)
-1 Lego brick (2x4 size)
-1 Lego tile (1x2 size)
-1 Lego minifigure

Optional:
-Paint or other decorations for your bat

Instructions:
1.Start by building the base of your bat. To do this, take 12 of the 1x2 bricks and stack them on top of each other, side by side.
2.Next, add the 2x4 brick to the center of the stack, making sure that it is perpendicular to the 1x2 bricks.
3.Now take your remaining 11 1x2 bricks and create a second stack on top of the first one, lining up the bricks so that each one is directly above a brick from the first stack.
4.Attach the 1x2 tile to the top of this second stack, again making sure that it is perpendicular to the 1x2 bricks beneath it. This will be the top of your bat.
5.Finally, add your minifigure to the top of the bat by attaching it to the 1x2 tile. If desired, you can now paint or decorate your bat however you like!

Step One

In order to make a Lego baseball bat, you will need the following materials:
-34 Lego blocks
-A baseplate
-A ball

To begin, you will need to create the barrel of the bat. This can be done by stacking the Lego blocks on top of each other in a row. Once you have the desired length for the barrel, you will then need to attach it to the baseplate.

Next, you will need to create the handle of the bat. This can be done by taking two of the Lego blocks and stacking them on top of each other. Once you have the desired length for the handle, you will then need to attach it to the barrel.

Finally, you will need to attach the ball to the end of the barrel. This can be done by taking one of the Lego blocks and attaching it to the end of the barrel. Once you have attached the ball, your bat is complete!

Step Two

Attach one 2 x 6 red Lego beam to the top of the 6 x 12 green Lego plate, making sure that the red beam is aligned flush with the left side of the green plate. This will be the handle of the bat.

Step Three

Now that you have your pieces, it’s time to put them all together. First, take the barrel and connect it to the handle. Next, add the knob to the other end of the handle. Finally, attach the bat to the barrel.

There you have it! Your very own Lego baseball bat!

Step Four

Now that you have your Lego bat, it’s time to start building! The first thing you’ll need to do is gather your materials. For this project, you’ll need:
-One Lego board
-One inch white square pipe cleaners (fourteen)
-One inch black square pipe cleaners (two)
-Yellow round pipe cleaners (two)
-Scissors
-Tape
-Paper towel rolls (two)

Cut the paper towel rolls into six inch pieces. You will need fourteen of these. Tape seven pieces together to form the handle of the bat. Tape the remaining seven pieces together to form the barrel of the bat. These will be the two main parts of your Lego bat.

Next, take your white square pipe cleaners and tape them along the length of the handle. This will serve as the grip for your bat. Once you have done this, take your black square pipe cleaners and tape them horizontally across the top of the barrel. This will create a cross symbol on top of the barrel, which is necessary for stability when hitting a ball. Finally, take your yellow round pipe cleaners and twist them around the bottom of the barrel. This will serve as decoration for your bat and add some extra stability.

Step Five

Now that you have your Lego baseball bat assembled, you need to practice using it. You can do this by hitting a Lego baseball or by hitting a real baseball. If you are hitting a real baseball, make sure that you are doing so in a safe place where there is no danger of breaking something. Once you have practiced using your Lego baseball bat, you will be ready to use it in a game.

Conclusion

Now that you know how to make a Lego baseball bat, it’s time to put your new skills to the test. Try building a simple bat first, then move on to more complex designs. With a little practice, you’ll be able to create all sorts of different bats, each with its own unique features. So get building, and have fun!
