tungpham Posted September 25, 2023 Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) Hello everyone, I have been here and enjoyed others' incredible creations for a while but this is the first time I build something that I could share with you guys. Let me show you my recent MOC - 42081 C Model | Backhoe Loader. I first just wanted to have some large tractor tyres so I bought a secondhand 42081 (because this is the cheapest set to get those tyres). However, I'm not so keen on the original ZEUX, I decided to turn it into something that I could like more. So here it come the 42081 C-Model | Backhoe Loader. I hope that you like this! The instruction is here: https://reb.li/m/159597 Featuring: Working in-cabin steering wheel. Working in-cabin controller (back crane rotation). Seat rotation. Front bucket lift. Front bucket tilt. Stabilise stand. Raising / Lowering back wheel compactor. Edited January 22, 2025 by tungpham Quote
2GodBDGlory Posted September 25, 2023 Posted September 25, 2023 Wow, that is some high-level photography! It looks like a nice C-model too--definitely better than the original set, I'd say. Have you tried adding a bucket to the rear arm, even if it requires parts from outside the set? Quote

Regrettably, I wasn't able to design the rear arm to facilitate easy attachment changes. I haven't tried the bucket but If I had the part, I would also have to redesign the rear arm to work with it.

Thirdwigg Posted September 26, 2023 Posted September 26, 2023 Great job, and the presentation of the functions is very descriptive. Impressive functions considering the parts available. Quote

Impressive functions considering the parts available. I'm really glad to hear that. I was worried that the images is not descriptive enough. Still working on the video to show the Backhoe Loader in action. I will update it soon :D Edited September 26, 2023 by tungpham Quote

blondasek Posted September 26, 2023 Posted September 26, 2023 I think, @Milan, this deserves frontpage :P Amazing mod! I am already collecting the parts from my inventory (I did disassemble the set long time ago :D). Quote

Well, I'm lucky that my wife is a professional photographer so I learned a thing or two from her :)) 7 hours ago, blondasek said: I think, @Milan, this deserves frontpage :P Amazing mod!
