  1. Hey y'all, First time I'm gonna try to do a WIP page... Been fiddling around with this Kraz 255b MOC by the one and only Ingmar Spijkhoven and figured out what attachment I'll build finally. In short, it's a mini portable bridge (called a TMM-3 or a scissor bridge). Functions of this add on attachment consist of- Actuator for raising and lowering the bridge Winch for deploying and retracting the bridge 2 stabilizers at the end of the truck to... stabilize the truck Propulsion has been swapped from 2 L motors on the sides to 1 one buggy motor under the hood. Now the replica engine can be put on display. The gearbox I really wanted to try part 35188 to make all the functions AND propulsion run on the one motor. Where I guess we can call the "transfer case" is at is right behind the cab, so here's what the result is for now. It was tricky since the tandem axle left no room for fit it in between the chassis rails. The rear shaft will actually hit the bottom of this when compressed all the way. It's as compact as could get it with Studio (kinda a LDD fan). It'll probably need to be reinforced even more, but wanna see how it mates with the buggy motor first. Never built a gearbox before and destroyed many other MOC's with gearboxes so don't have high hopes. Note- all of the motorized attachments will be ran with worm gears, so not to concerned with the gear ratios... buggy motor just gonna make everything super fast anyways with a Buwizz. Where buggy motor is planning to be in the future a bit more securely. Just seeing how a gearbox could be placed and how high it'll be. Part 87408 is now mounted securely below the motor with two 24t gears feeding it above (will get a shot of it soon). Getting the motor to fit underneath the hood was very miserable. Couldn't use a servo anymore since the buggy motor is so low it'll interrupt the travel of the front axle. (yes the fenders are mounted backwards when rebuilt...) Ordered the parts for the gearbox and will update once they come in. Planned order of the build- Gearbox Wheels Test drive Stabilizers Building the frame/chassis of the TMM winch Scissor bridge Survive the misery

    Lego H3T

    Hi everyone, Am seeking advice for wrapping up the last little details of this Hummer H3T body for JJ2's extreme 9398 chassis I never really finished up completely. Mostly the rack and the soon to be OEM styled storage bins, as trying to scale something in Lego's to look realistic can look worser than expected. Also wondering if anyone ever try 3D printing a 8 tooth gear as they always break (mostly from a Buwizz V1) in metal or for the others who've built the chassis if they've had other cost effective solutions/mods. The chassis is awesome, and is so much fun to test its limits, but like most powerful Lego crawlers, the torque is getting lost through the lack of stiffness and # of gears needed to make it functional as is. Mostly used in thick mud bogging, and in a little stream (sooo much fun) Anyways, the new additions are... 1. Functional tail gate 2. Properly secured to the chassis (no, the body doesn't come off like the original 9398) 3. The multi purpose safari styled roof rack 4. Able to squeeze in 120mm tires without as much fender rubbing 5. putting an actual bed in the truck Maybe do a comparison video between this the original and the original with xl motors? Sorry if the pic is to small, will put more pics up soon, here's a link- https://www.bricksafe.com/pages/Voodu/h3t-9398-extreme-cover-/h3t-safari-edition- Thanks for your time everyone, Vootu Edit- posted in the wrong topic, still trying to figure work this website
  3. Hope that I can wrap up my project by tomorrow. I'm trying to add a wacky function and that's all I need. Good luck everyone!
  4. Congrats to the winners! This was a fun and unique competition that I enjoyed a lot. Thanks Jim and Milan for making every detail pop! As this was my first entry into a competition, I was surprised to get 1 vote (so what I got a little self doubt). I wish I didn't build my first model too tall, I was able to go with my other idea but in 2 days that was intense! Well once again congrats the winners and cant wait to see what the next technic competition is!
  5. I choose these bots due to technics, main attack, and durability mostly. 3:10 10: 6 23: 4 31: 3 30: 2 15: 1 Good look you all!
  6. Ok the discussion back but where it says "size" in that sentence that's were "word" is randomly placed. Unless that fixes to.....
  7. Hello everybody does anyone know why my entry is all jacked up? It was perfect this morning and is now all jacked up. Like the discussion is now a movie and there's just "word" randomly typed in l the sentence where I was explaining the main weapon. @Milan think you can help me plz?
  8. This is a super late entry I kind of ran out of time so I guessing its gonna be disqualified :( Introducing the Claw-Crawler! A big game defense bot that will tear you apart or drag you into some battleground weapons (such as the hammer, saws, and etc just like in the real battleground). Has 2 xl motors for steering and propulsion and a buggy motor for the claw to be super quick! Speed it ok its more like crawler pace but can drive over other bots if needed! 9/10 for defense, it could've been better but its still quite a tough cookie or bot. Good luck everybody! Drill and spoiler are NOT part of the final model If you don't know what I'm talking about the battleground "weapons" here's an example:https://www.google.com/amp/thirdlawsports.com/2016/08/01/battlebots-season-2-review-episode-5/amp/ Look behind that picture at the actual bots and do you see the extra little death accessories (like the hammer behind the hammer bot)?
  9. 32. My first entry Claw-Crawler CAT A: sbrick plus (not using sensors) Signature move- Quick claw (propelled by buggy motor for quick grabbing or tearing apart bots) Size: L45 studs W29 studs (drill and spoiler were taken off for the final model due to length) Propulsion: 2xl motors for driving/steering and 1 buggy motor for the claw Description: This is my Claw-Crawler, a slow but very powerful battle bot tank built to grab its enemies. Then, if in a related battleground area (just like on the real deal) were they have the hammer, drills grinders, and etc it would destroy them by using the weapons on the battleground by driving them into the death sentence traps! Also due to its massive torque it can crawler over other bots and squish them. This was designed for powerful side or top impacts. If you design your battle bot correctly and can take 3-6 whacks were the battery box is and detach it, it mite do something but the crawler will still run just not as fast (it is unlikely that it would knockout the robot). The drill and spoiler are NOT in the final bot. Inside size to 45 studs (Barely) Good luck everybody! Discussion:
  10. Wished I posted this sooner......... When I was originally had the model normal it couldn't go over an half inch actual brick tile :(. Due to that I spent a long time modifying it to barely go through grass about as tall as the pretend sticker grill. This thing can go over an emaxx tire with its 2 not one xl motors and it had an l motor for steering (only do if your not using 3rd party tires) if using 3rd party tire use an xl motor for steering (I only had 2). I'm now building a a25E tanker to spray weed killer for me so I don't need to sweat to death. Since its super easy to detach the bed I could be able to switch the tanker and soon changed bed be swappable maybe? Picture from very first successful time. Version 1.0 instructions: http://bricksafe.com/pages/Voodu/42030-dump-truck-super-mod-instructions Video as just a quick demo of some average grass: This is what I'm building while doing Ingmar Spijkhoven 6x6 truck and stay tuned!
  11. Thanks for the help! Here's the photos are Hopefully the correct size.
  12. My iPhone can do 3:2 that's the smallest I can go still won't work..... guess I'll try the computer next. Sorry for the inconvenience.
  13. I got this set today for my birthday and I didn't really care for the model so I made an C-model very familiar to that belly tank vehicle. First time attempting to put photos on here so mite be big. Was suppose to be a hot rod but I didn't have the right parts so it looks a little funny. It looks like a front of a weird car and the back of a hot rod. I'll make instructions and post them on rebrickable if any of you want. To bad the set doesn't have any trans red lights it really needs them :(.
  14. Almost there with 11% more to go! Cant wait to start on my attachment I'm gonna use a egg nog container (half gallon) and make a water pump system to go on top. Then the attachment where the water or in this case weed killer will flow threw some pipe I bought from ace hardware 6ft of it for $3.18 way much cheaper than silicone piping. It s a weed spray attachment that really works! or hopefully works.....
  15. Hello everybody Efferman do you think you can make a movie explaining the motorized functions of the saddle trac or you can just tell me also would be nice plz. I'm asking because I'm putting or trying to put a ev3 in it and make it self driving to spray weeds on my parents pool deck but not spray in the pool.
