    Last sunday I was driving and passed through a truck like that, and immediately thought "that´s where that MOC came from!". I think I had never noticed those trucks before. Good work!

    Maybe not quite technic, check video below. Even size, studs... But it is a nice part and a nice set!

    This is pretty cool! I like it manual too. But it must be a bit boring to turn some of those manual commands, lots of wheel turns.... maybe you could use an external motor, a bit like an electrical screw driver made out of lego, for the longer operations?

    Very cool design! I have been using the design below but that has a real flatness advantage.

    Check this: Last september, from Lego (Replacement Parts -> Buy Bricks), 0.65€ each. The basket ball ones. I think soccer are not available. KU: 6261264 2020-09-04 Enviada 0.65 Unfortunately haven´t used them yet... I need a contest!

    Well, there are some nice closed loop small GBCs out there (miniloops,) . You could imagine a line of miniloop GBCs sets, that could connect to each other, forming a bigger one. Maybe some of them manual and one or two with a motor, that could be used to power the union of several. Wow, this would be nice!

    Thank you!!

    Thanks! Thanks! The minifig seats that rise where really fun. I wanted to be able to open the canopies both at the same time, then connecting the seats to it came naturally, and then... why not ejection?

    I was just thinking on it right now.... 16T and 24T on that position do not mesh... is it for a chain? The chain solution is great! I like it, I might use it! Very cool!

    Your motorbike is really beautiful and I like the way you found to squeze the stepper inside it! But, and please correct me if I am wrong, I have the felling that your gearbox will spin in one direction in 1st and 3rd gears and in the opposite direction in 2nd and 4th gears. That, because the axles with the driving rings should be spinning in the same direction, but you are connecting them through a 16T-24T mesh. Am I corrrect?

    Wow, those pictures from above are really nice! Glad you liked the suggestion ... Fortunately your bike's seat looks really comfy!

    This is really cool, i like it very much! Those curved parts you used on top of the fuel tank and on the botton, wouldn´t they make a nice front wheel mudguard? Also, the seat and the footrest position seem to be not quite compatible with those handlebars, the driver would have to bend a lot! What about long handlebars, allowing the driver to rest its back? How would it look?

    same same... :-(

    Hi, very cool stuff! You could try wheels without rubber tires.... just the rims or fake tires made with small link chains, for instance. Not that nice but it would probably slip enough to avoid leg spreading? About container decoration, you could make a decoration of 3x3 containers size, so you would have a puzzle that you would build using your machine!
  19. vascolp
    Yes really cool! And funny how you did a modern version of the old square piston.
  20. vascolp
    Well observed, I didn't notice that. Thanks ?

    This is becoming really nice! Usually 4 doors have a smaller front door than 2 doors.... have you considered reducing the size of the front door 1 or 2 studs? Check here for an example of a 2 stud reduction: Best Regards!

    I aggree. For instance, the rear door rubberband, that some people complain: if you close the rear door by pushing the door handle, the door closes perfectly and stays locked, just like a real door. This just happens because of the apparent looseness of the rubberband. The door tongue collects and comes out perfectly. Details....

    Cool machine gun! Some resemblances with my TC17 entry.

    I also find this very interesting. Regarding the 14-teeth bevel gear; I think its worth to mention one difference between this gear and all other ones. While the current gears have one tooth at each "corner", that is, one tooth at 0 degrees, one at 90, 180 and 270, the old 14 teeth has two sides, say at 0 and 180 degrees, like in the picture above, where there is a gap for the other gear tooth to mesh. This allows the usage of this wheel driven by a servo motor without loosing the center.

    Hi. As in your 4 speed gearbox, you use only one side of the driving rings. This seems interesting to me as it might reduce friction problems (maybe at the cost of a bigger size). Am I right?
