Cy-Gor Posted June 4, 2011 Has someone already created a mockup of the original technic turn table in LDD? I am building the Technomecha from the plans and trying to figure out a way to sub out the type 1 turntables. Any help is appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DLuders Posted June 4, 2011 I looked all around, and could not find any Type 1 Lego Technic Turntable (pictured below) that has been modeled in LDD. All there is is the slimmer Type 2 that is in the LDD Parts Pallette. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cy-Gor Posted June 4, 2011 Yeah i know its not in there. I was hoping that someone might have mocked one up like they did with the linear actuators before they became available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DLuders Posted June 4, 2011 There is another possibility. Use a Lego Technic Turntable (Type 2) from the LDD Pallette, and connect some 1x2 Technic Liftarms to the inner surfaces of the holes on each side of the turntable. Then (using 3L Lego Technic Pins), clip those Technic Liftarms onto some old-style 1x4 Technic Bricks. It should all work the same, and be the proper dimensions. + + = Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cy-Gor Posted June 4, 2011 There is a problem with that idea. the width isnt the same. turntable by captainoftheknights, on Flickr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DLuders Posted June 4, 2011 Maybe you could "shim" the inside surfaces of the 3-studs-long connecting areas of the Type 2 Technic Turntable with THIN 1x3 Technic Liftarms, and THEN use the 1x2 Technic Liftarms and 1x4 Technic Bricks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cy-Gor Posted June 4, 2011 Well I came up with a solution: LDDScreenShot162 by captainoftheknights, on Flickr I have the LXF file but i cant upload it yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
