Make Your Own Lego Instructions Tutorial (stud.io)

It's time for another lego instructions tutorial!
As the old methods get outdated, I decided to update my tutorial with the software called studio, which is owned by Bricklink, which is in turn owned by Lego. Great news, since it will likely be supported for longer then!

You have no idea how helpful this was! This was 10 minutes shorter than any other tutorial I found, and it was WAY more helpful! Thanks again!

Np, hope it’s useful!

[@MFF8795]

Love this video, thank you! I was just wondering, the adding steps seems to be quite manual if you have a large model. I.E if a sub model is say 500 pieces, do you have to manually go in and select the pieces in the right order and create step by step? Is there a way to automate this, then have a look at the steps and edit them if they're not quite right? E.G The LDD "instructions" were automatically created, but sometimes a bit weird so I would want to edit them before sending to someone. Is that possible in Studio? Thank you!

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

Hi! Unfortunately I don’t think there’s a way to do that in Studio since it lacks the ability to generate steps automatically. That’s a downside of the software. :(

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

Hi, this has recently changed and there’s now a button to automate this process! It’s not doing a good job in my opinion, but it may help you part out your model for you to edit afterwards :)

[@bobstone2628]

Is there a way to get them printed off Professionally?

[@BrickLady]

Hi! tell me, please, from the set 41938 there are letters with prints, (but when you download the details from this set, there are no these letters) how to make these prints can be used in Lego Studio. I really need it.

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

There’s an icon in studio, right next to the color picker in the brick list, where you can toggle if you want to see printed parts or not. Then you should be able to find the letters by looking through the list of 1x1 round tiles :)

[@priyajagan3390]

[@Pyry300]

Can you make a small instruction manual with this about your bowling lane, or do you already have tutorials or do you know anyone who has them?

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

There are no instructions for my bowling lane yet because it isn’t finished. When it is, I will start selling instructions :)

[@DeltonAdamsLEGO]

So I want to put the instructions in my video description. How to I do that?

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

Include a link to something like Google drive where you can host them :)

[@PsychoEagle1101]

Is it possible to change the color of already completed steps? If so, how to do it?

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

Hi! Could you explain further how you mean? What do you mean by completed step?

[@alexandrucreata6342]

Can you put robotic parts in the model like the boost hub for example?

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

Yes, that should be possible :)

[@alexandrucreata6342]

Ok, thanks

[@AcesFurryAdventures]

Is it possible to create the instructions before the model itself? (I don't plan to do so, im just curious)

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

Nope, you will need the model since you use the same parts for the instruction making. :/

[@AcesFurryAdventures]

@@ThinkCleverAndSmart thanks, good to know, by the way i love your content 👍

[@kristux22]

Do I need to build it first then make instructions?

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

Yes, that’s correct

[@vlahobukovac2908]

Can you make a video how to sell lego instructions on ebay or somewhere else

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

I only sell them on my website so I don’t have experience of other places

[@shaldurprime7154]

why does the orientation of objects get scrambled when I link the submodels, like I'm trying to put fingers on a robot, all are assembled identically, only the orientation and names are different, f-5 through f-12 are the names, linking the submodels forces them to all be entirely identical, so all the names are now f-5 and the orientation of all the pieces is changed on just one axis for no discernible reason, some of these parts now have broken connection nodes and must be replaced entirely, trying to rename the parts as normal does not work since it still considers the original names to be in use despite not being there, that was just the worst example, this has happened every time, the naming issue happens to all linked entities, and the scrambling issue occurs in any assembly oriented at an angle, bricklink please fix your damn program

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

Oh wow that sounds horrible! There is a page on BrickLink where you can report bugs. I’m not sure how well they read on that page but you probably should report it to how any chance of it getting fixed!

[@andrel449]

Hi, can I put water mark, like: my name in each page?

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

I don’t know of an easy way to make it appear on all the pages at once but you can add text to a page, and copy it to every page :)

[@andrel449]

Thanks ; )

What is it that differs from the version you downloaded?

[@JBobjork]

Oh no, what have you done. Now I will try not to download this, fail and then have even more project unfinished. I have three different channel ideas already and now you want me to make Lego models instead!? Or at the same time!? TCAS!!!

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

I'm sorry. But to answer your question, preferably do it at the same time. ;)

[@CompletedHistory]

I can relate to that🤣

You need a 3D model before you watch this video.

[@ThinkCleverAndSmart]

You can also build anything you want, so no need for a separate model :)
