[MOC] CAT 914k

Another perfect MOC from you! Nice to see pneumatics in this front end loader!!

@mpj I tried some linkages that worked a little better, but I couldn’t get a mounting that stayed together. This worked well enough. Some panels would have been a good idea.

@AFOLegofan66 glad you liked it.

I took photos for the instructions today. I’ll post them on Monday.

Instructions are up, and my be viewed here. Go nuts @Bartybum

You can now build the Loader, or tell me all the ways my design should be improved. @WvG_853 I added a steering wheel.

As I my time is being splintered into a number of responsibilities, I most likely will not add a part list, but if anyone wants to compile a list, feel free.

Awesome , cheers @Thirdwigg!

I’m gonna give this a go tomorrow but in lime, since I don’t have yellow wheels to work with. I’ll also see if I can implement the old large pneumatics pump, as well as a replacement for the ballsocket frame since I don’t have one, and Lego seems to have developed an allergy to them since early 2015 .

A big thanks @Thirdwigg!

Steering wheel looks good. I like how you solved the indication how long the pneumatic tubes are. :-)

Me too.

I don't like spending time photo editing, and I have a love for Orange parts.

Wow this is cool!

Lovely little loader. I too like the 'pure technic' style. I'm not a fan of the completely closed paneled effect. 

Also, it's nice to see a few MOC's coming through that aren't cars. 

Out of curiosity, why the up side down system bricks at the back? Not saying I don't like it. Just wondering.

@Oliver 79 I'm glad you like it.

The upside down systems bricks were from some old MOCs. I didn't want to make a another order just to flip them the other way.
