Techymind's Lego Technic Road Grader

[DLuders]

Here is another excellent Lego Technic Road Grader built for the 9th SeTechnic Challenge, this time by Techymind. It sports a "Eurovia/Hubbard color (White with blue and red line)". On his Brickshelf gallery, Techymind posted 12 BIG images and a .l3b animation file. His

shows all of its functions:

Hello,

Well, I'm quite surprised to see my Model here

Thank you.

I don't understand why the pictures are so BIG. I resized them.... Hmm I will upload new picture with decent size

Maybe should I add come comment for this review :

It has basically 9 functions :

• Steering with HOG on top of the cab : front wheel and central articulation are syncronized
  
  • Front steering (HOG / 20t / 12t / 8t)
    
  • Central articulation steering (HOG / 8t / 40t)
    

  [*]Front pendular steering

  [*]Rear independant left and right pendular suspension

  [*]Fake L4 engine powered via pendular suspension and a central differential

  [*]Main blade lowering/raising (worm / 8t)

  [*]Main blade left/right sliding (worm / 8t)

  [*]Main blade rotated (worm / turntable)

  [*]Rear ripper lowering/raising (friction)

This Road grader has exactly 600 parts (it was the maximum accepted in this challenge)

I will probably update the model with new and updated functions and with some design parts I could not put because of part limitation.

I'm glad I post for the first time here

Fantastic! It looks great, especially with all the white pieces. Nicely done!
