KUPOV1 Posted August 27, 2016 Posted August 27, 2016 Hello everybody, I want to share my new project. I am going to build Caterpillar wheel excavator. Featuring: -4x4 drive -one axle steering -air tank (if it'll be necesarry) -12 pneumatic pistons -7 pneumatic switches -2 small pneumatic pumps -HoG steering Rotating of main boom will be controlled manually. In main boom I will place battery box as counterweight, motor with pumps and fake engine. Trought the main technic turnable actually goes steering (black wheel), gearbox elements will be used for driving fake motor and one pneumatic hose to bottom switches. After three days of work I have got almost completed bottom of excavator and front blade. Quote
alltypesofbricks Posted August 27, 2016 Posted August 27, 2016 I love the use of the rubber bands paired with the single port cylinder. Quote
Milan Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 Great base! Why 7 pneumatic switches? 4 for the arm, and 2 for the front and back outriggers? Looking good! Quote
