I can have a got at LDD instructions for my version of the club car later if you wish. However, it is quite easy to follow just by looking at the photos.

42055 - Bucket Wheel Excavator - MODs and Improvements
DanFraser replied to Imanol BB's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Oooh! Something to play with! Don't know if I'd ever be able to produce something to even my liking but I'll have fun. -

I would love to know if more has been done on this! Fantastic model! -
How do you display your modular building collection?
DanFraser replied to yanathin's topic in LEGO Town
I should have added to my last comment that the Ikea Lack shelves fit modulate perfectly. I have one (for now) that fits 4 32x32 base plates almost perfectly. edit:. Just had another modular for xmas to make four for my set. The lack shelf can fit four with about 7-8 studs of room to either side (in total). The depth is nigh on perfect with a slight edge of a couple of millimetres of shelf extra under the base plate. -

Unfortunately it's a millimetre or two just shy. -

Shipping prices on Bricklink
DanFraser replied to harrypotterstarwarsfan's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I'm in the UK, and I've found that shipping by costs to the EU have been horrific on some quotes I've been asked for. Smaller packages are fine but the prices seem to go insane the bigger you go. -
My first pirate set was the mighty Black Seas Barracuda. Had a few others in the couple of years after. Last night I was watching eBay and almost had a heart attack when I scored that ship, the Carribean Clipper, Sabre Island and maybe some more but I haven't fully sorted them yet. The ships are in their original boxes with some damage but it appears everything is there!

Haha! I have half of the pieces required. It'll only cost another grand or so... -
Classic Technic haul reveals itself
DanFraser replied to Trugga's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
First picture. An 8868 manual? Was it? Is it? -
I've done one similar. I may have to 'steal' that awesome top floor design. Also, I've not done this yet but the top row of Windows could go wider, so that the curved slope sits one stud on top of a window panel.

[Software] Brickficiency - Find the cheapest BL stores to buy parts
DanFraser replied to mdoupe's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
This is a great program. I'm currently using it to create a list of pieces I've bought in bulk and it's the quickest way I've found compared to any program or website out there. A couple of tweaks I'd like to see are: On the add item window, if a part type is selected, a separate panel shows the image of that type, but still have the hover image display on moving the mouse around the list. An information window would be great. It could show the number of parts, total pieces etc. I would also love to know how to get every piece in the list showing its own lowest price, not combined with other pieces for an order, just wanting to see what my collection of random parts is worth! -
[HELP] 42009 Outrigger Problem
DanFraser replied to FestiVal's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
It's the tan gears on the top of the boom units. Follow the gear train back from the small linear actuator until you just get past the small 8 tooth gear set, then you will have two tan gears. Swap the tan gear on the axle that is parallel to the small gears. But one boom unit only. -
I finally got around to building my version of the club car. I made a couply of changes with the intention for my children to be able to play with it.

Don't know if anyone has mentioned this. One f the Lego Friends small sets has two tan 1x6 arches. One cost me 5.99 (or 3.99) at Argos and those are 4.75 each on brick link.
