Gimi Carnage Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Hi people, My name is Bart, I am 30 years old and slowly picking up my Lego hobby again. I will update my data, avatar and such soon. I work a full time job and a 20 hours study in the evening, so it takes a share of my free time Now that my studies are almost finished I want to start building Lego MOC’s and share some with you guys. I work as a mechanic in the Netherlands and sometimes other countries. I do work on a variety of things: aircraft engines, radar systems and creating special tools. My hobbies are: Technical stuff, music, science projects, BMX, old cars, photography and Lego So I will not bore you any longer with my life story, here are some photo’s of MOC’s I did and pictures of my hobby builds. Have fun! Mad Max 1 interceptor (big Mad Max fan here) I like sturdy builds wich have a lot of functions and details. Trying to build clean vehicles and sets though. Fury Road MOC: (Kinda silly but I like it). 'Tanka' from Carmageddon 1: (I hope it is o.k. to post this subject here) This is my 'Board Track Racer' project wich I am currently building completely from scratch and scrap: And my Herbie wich I restored a couple of years ago: (Its now sold to a couple wich have the time to keep it running). So yeah, too much hobbies here Feel free to ask questions and thanks for watching! Edited January 12, 2016 by Gimi Carnage Quote

Kalais Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Welcome to the forums! BMX you say ^^ Fourcross? Street? Dirt? Something else? Quote
Rijkvv Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Welcome Bart! What kind of radar systems do you work on? Quote
Gimi Carnage Posted January 20, 2016 Author Posted January 20, 2016 Kalais: Fourcross In the summer when there is a school vacation! Love the adrenaline when jumping/racing. Rijkjavik: I work on defense systems like these: (And many more) (picture from the web) This a defense gun against incoming missiles wich could not be intercepted from a distance. Quote
Rijkvv Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 A Goalkeeper? Nice! Do you work with army systems as well? I'm an operator of the WALS/TDAR and TRML radars of the army. Quote
Gimi Carnage Posted January 21, 2016 Author Posted January 21, 2016 Very nice! Small world hey Wich company builds these radars if I may ask? I worked for the Dutch airforce about 7 years ago. Working on F16 engines and helping the Sand Forces (just kidding, I meant Land forces) occasionally with exercises. I work on naval systems. But occasionally on some 'groundmasters' (French design for the land forces). Quote
Rijkvv Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 The TRML(-3D) is made in Germany by EADS while the TDAR (or WALS, same radar but only a different name) was made in Belgium by BATS. Quote
