  1. @KoolJBlack: 2014 sets are available: http://www.technicopedia.com/2014.html I guess it is still too early to have 2015 sets there :)
  2. I have 2 passions in life. There's LEGO and forage harvesters.
  3. Started with this car yesterday and I have been building for 6 hours straight (arrived at page 83 of 125). This thing is really amazing and very well built. Unlike building some of TLGs sets, this one does not get boring :)
  4. Thanks for the advice. But since I was able to pack all necessary functions in there, I am going to stick with the scale, for now. All that is left is some bodywork and a shovel :)
  5. So I missed the deadline for this great competition (@jim, maybe you could remove the [TC6]-prefix), but I am still determined to finish this model. The model will have 4WD and 4 wheel steering, like the real model. Below is my WIP. This is what it should look like: Basic setup of scale, steering and test: Adding motors and functions to the front (+testing): This will be my first MOC with power functions and I have to admit, trying to fit everything and getting everything to work is not easy in this scale (there are a lot of iterations). All those real MOC'ers out there deserve all my respect
  6. Yes, I am almost 100% sure this is the case.
  7. I was going to create a skid-steer loader, but someone beat me to it (there's a tracked loader). So, I am going to try and create this instead: More pictures on: http://www.ahlmann.n...tlader-af-1050/ No WIP yet.
  8. I guess all the "viewers" expected to see pictures of a transmission :) Anyway, if you google a bit, you can find a lot of pictures of tranmissions: https://www.google.be/search?q=LEGO+technic+transmission Found an LXF here: http://rebrickable.com/mocs/zrhett/5-r-transmission I can also recommend Sariel's book. I have it and it's worth every penny.
  9. Sheepo's Mini has one: http://www.sheepo.es/2011/11/mini-cooper-mark-i.html
  10. At Blokbricks you can buy after market pneumatic hoses per cm. These hoses are of good quality and they are great if you like creating MOCs with pneumatics. In the 8868 set, a bunch of rigid hoses are used to give more realism to the model. Can anyone tell me if there's an after market for rigid hoses, like the pneumatic hoses per cm?
  11. Seems your images are not rendering properly in the Entry Topic. Just so you know. Would be a shame if this model wasn't shown properly in the Entry Topic.
  12. Took some pictures today. You can find all of the pictures in my bricksafe. It features: - Hand Of God steering - Working steering wheel I know it doesn't use a lot of parts from the original set, but I guess it doesn't take a lot of parts to create a small race car :) Anyway, this is my 4th MOC ever, so be gentle :)
  13. 30. Ye Olde Race Car Hello all, This is my entry for the competition. It is based on the most awful Technic set in my collection: The Bucket Truck Here's the link to my WIP topic: http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=102063 I call it "Ye Olde Race Car" :) The car is rather small, so there are a lot of left over pieces. Here are some pictures: It has hand-of-god steering on the back. And there's also a fake exhaust system. The driver's steering wheel actually works and the driver also has a fake speedometer. I hope you like it.
  14. I am a big fan of agriculture equipment, this MOC looks amazing. Does it have Auto Command ;) ?
  15. This book was waiting in my mail box this afternoon. Pre-ordered it with No Starch, can't wait to start reading :) PS: I'm also from Belgium :P
  16. I still have the 8547. What do you mean by "schemas". If I recall correctly, are instructions for all models are included in the software to program the NXT brick.
  17. Yes, I know, the grill needs some work. Thanks for the comments, guys. Very much appreciated.
  18. The scale, for the moment, doesn't allow it. It is inspired by this blueprint: It does feature HOG and a working steering wheel for the driver, however. Anyway, I will try to post some pictures tonight. My camera is in the shop for cleaning, but I am getting it back today :)
  19. Indeed, it will have steering only :(
  20. All, I am going to create an old race car, something like this: out of this set (8071): Pictures will follow :)
  21. 42008 has pneumatics ... and I think this is the only set containing pneumatics that is generally available in S@H and toy stores.
  22. I have a 2012 Nexus 7 and a Fairphone ... seems they both don't support Bluetooth Smart :(
