This is coming along beautifully!

I love the gearbox for the pneumatic switches - it's a challenge I still haven't had the nerve to take up.

Thanks! It actually just clicked when I thought about using the angular motor instead of a normal L-motor to have enough room in the middle part. The configuration of @mktechniccreationss Torion would have made things much easier, though. But I like this setup, as its something I haven't seen so far :-)

Still waiting for the XL-motors to test the whole driving and steering setup... the merchant was on vacation :D

I thought that there is some update to project (since I noticed red gear). Oh well it is vacation time (and only if those fires and people who started them could be under control)

Hi guys, just want to give an update as now I am on the way for finishing touches and ordering some bricks in the right colours.

The pneumatic function works, but I really hope the Buwizz3 update will be able to support this kind of gearbox to switch between:

- main arm lift
- tilting
- clamp 1 (right haystack)
- clamp 2 (left haysteck)

Very good panel work; both on hood and cab

Thanks, Igor :-)

It rarely happens that a single panel (rear hood) fit so well, but it works fine for me in this case. As always, I try to keep the number of system bricks to a minimum.

The exhaust will get two black 2x4 slope pieces, it really is hard to get right, @mktechniccreations did it very neatly in his torion :D

It is always nice to see that you can find time to improve MOC
