Help with reverse engineering Pipasseyoyo's 6X6 articulated hauler

Recommended Posts

Hi,

My name is Jameson, I am new to this fourm but I have been following the threads here for a long time. I really liked Pipasseyoyo's 6X6 articulated hauler, and he was nice enough to post many detailed photos on his brickshelf page so I thought I would try my hand at reverse engineering. There were no instructions, so it sounded like a good challenge! I have the chassis mostly complete, but unfortunately have gotten stumped on how the gear train will work once passed through the turn table. there is a 90deg turn with knob wheels, but they are in the way of the input axle and I can't seem to figure out how he has done it! I need to offset the input axle 1 stud higher to pass over the knob wheels. I was hoping someone here could help shed some light on it and any help would be appreciated.

I have created a crude 3D model of the problem area to share in case it helps.

Thanks in advance!

I would love to, but I think the creator posts to another forum. I was hoping the answer was something easy I was jut not seeing.

That is a really nice Hauler he has made with a lot to like about it. :thumbup:

Good luck with your reverse engineered attempt - that looks like fun!

I would love to take the best bits from this, the one by Designer Han, and the 42030 B model and make a modernized Technic Super Hauler!

Hi, sorry to bump an old thread but I finally have gotten around to some progress on the articulated hauler and thought I would share. I started an Ldraw file for the chassis. I have made the dump bucket but not in 3D. Perhaps someone more talented than me would like to finish the files!
