Hi Legomania,

The question is not clear at all. What do you mean?

Did you see that New Agents Lego theme? What is most interesting that one of the sets ( that big truck ) comes with lots of black technic panels. Might be interesting source of black panels later on when these sets go on sale:

a question at all, when it comes out a decent bucket for an excavator or 8043 zorex etc?

Not sure I understand the question ... Are you looking for sets that have the same bucket as 8043?

If so, the page below (from bricklink) shows that such part was released 7 times.

Hi Legomania,

I believe he is talking about a proper "digger bucket" like http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=2950 for sets like the 8043 excavator

Great parts set - I am wondering about all of those grey pins holding the 5x11 panels in place - are they with or without friction? With friction would be a new color for 43093; could equally be either 3749 (without friction). Here's hoping.

What is the partnumber for the new type of 24 teeth gear with clutch?

I believe you may be referring to a cut differential used in D3K's Swingloader MKII. This is not an official piece, but a modified one that D3K made for his MOC :classic:

I just found out something that will make many Technic builders who use LDD very happy. LDD now has the new parts from 42021!

Hi all. For a while I have been thinking about building an Unimog-like vehicle, but with my old Techinic parts. Something like 8110, same scale, but probably a bit simpler, considering what I have to work with :-)

Nothing build yet, but tonight I was testing my old pneumatic parts. ( my technic collections pretty much is pre-1986.) the pneumatics are of the first series. They happen to work just fine.

However, I attached them to my 8110 Unimog and then it didn't...... The cylinders extend, but do not return. I don't get why that happens. I'm sure somebody here does?

First gen pneumatics work on a different principle, they use only one input per cylinder and a special valve which allows for negative and positive pressure, so the cylinders and extend and retract with only one input.

The old pump suplied both negative and positive pressure. The next gen supplies only posiitve pressure, hence your pistonts dont retract. If you wanna use old pneumatics replace the new'ish' pump with a simple cylinder which has no one-way valves.

Found this rather interesting machine on a trip to the city, thought i'd share it for inspiration as i lack the skills/powerfunctions to build such a coplex machine

Absolutely cool!!! what you mean you lack at skills? don't be silly....start to build it (if not real at least LDD) and whenever you need an help simply pop up and ask!!!

What would be the meaning of a forum if not to help eachother?? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
