    In the grand scheme of things injection mould making these days has dropped in price quite a bit. Sure there is a different in a mould that will run millions of parts verses one that will run hundred thousands... I have a couple of moulds that have run over a million times from china. A third of the cost for the same mould made in nz. No one will ever win a price/production war against china. Sorry about the off topic... regards matt

    Decreasing number of MOCs

    brickless_kiwi replied to jorgeopesi's topic in LEGO Technic and Model Team

    There are some very impassioned arguments. The one thing I would like to say to all builders please don't stop creating as it's always nice to see mocs of all standards and styles and to add to my bucket list of one day... Unfortunately my job and life do not leave me many hours for lego. So as someone always looking in it's nice to see. But also certainly I feel comments should be positive ( we do live in a touchy feelings world but also look at the diverse range of cultures on eurobricks slang in my language could be highly offensive in another. ) I'm just a simple truck driver ( haha yea right some of you would say)... Kind regards Matt

    brickless_kiwi replied to Madoca 1977's topic in LEGO Technic and Model Team

    No... I have reversed engineered a couple that madoca made but never released files as not my intellectual property. From the photos and a few good guesses I'm pretty close and with a bit if time and patience you could do it.

    Someone who has managed to reverse engineer effermans trailers. This certainly is on my wish list.

    Has the pandemic slowed your building?

    brickless_kiwi replied to Bublehead's topic in LEGO Technic and Model Team

    Or those who just work hard put in the long hours. I'd love to be able to sit down for a couple of hours and lego....

    There are parts of both that I like and probably would build a mix of the two. Try the 2x2 dishes the ones look not right.

    [MOC][WIP] Nissan R32 GTR

    brickless_kiwi replied to Gray Gear's topic in LEGO Technic and Model Team

    At 23 meters bumper to bumper it's the longest proforma combination inside the nzta virm. Those are 15 meter stems. My trailers I can do stems or longs and shorts. Though I can remove the log forks and bolt container locks on and move standard height containers. As for old school street racing. Light weight mx5 first gen (na) with ford serria rs500 running gear. The engine was built to similar specs of the dick johnston racing cars. This was 1996... so 500kgs lighter and 120bhp more than a stock r32 gtr.. will find some old photos

    The only one change would be the tail lights. They need to be red. One of the very few tail lights that ever passed me..

    42108 availability

    brickless_kiwi replied to trinitechnic's topic in LEGO Technic and Model Team

    I found while living in the states, and maybe it was just me being a hick backcountry boy...that it is a huge shop at home culture (mail order catalog style ) as the brick and mortar shops held very little. Unless you travelled a great distance to a specialist shop. Currently sitting on a log skid being loaded. You can tell I'm bored... Anyway after much direct searching the 42108 in the states seems to be only on Amazon or Walmart but very expensive.
