Interesting article on PriNXT here, good read. Might have a stab at something myself, I can see it potentially being possible with more than just printing monochrome images. A recreation might still be a fun exercise.

Glad to have been able to help! I'm going to see if I can get hold of one of my schools 9751s and test it out at home with this, I'll let you know if I'm successful, intrigued as to how useful it is seeing it has 8 inputs and outputs

Agreed, it is a lot of fun. I really enjoyed 8053, I think one of the best sets I've bought. First mobile crane I had and enjoyed building it, and the B-Model was a good build too, I think has a lot of potential in it to be taken further if one decided they wanted to. I messed around with it when I had it built, but ultimately ended up in the parts bin like every other set

The Internet hides many secrets, take a look

Really, it isn't too bad value for money, it's PPP is 5.7p (8.4c) which is better than other models like 8258, which like this one, only had one motor and BB (and switch). I've found it fun to play with, and am currently toying with how to modify it, as said, a slot of empty space can be made with room for more functions, like RC mods. I think it was a good buy.

Really interesting model! Haven't seen one of those before and it looks immaculate! Very well done! Also, is that based on 8043's tracks? Looks similar Will be looking forward to the truck and trailer, if this is anything to go by! :thumbup:

Well I for one will be going for this before the front loader, it doesn't really interest me that much, don't need much more PF stuff and so much yellow. I like this one for the red and I'm more of a cars/trucks person rather than constructions, although cranes fascinate me. Each to their own I guess.

Perhaps it lifts the flatbed?

No idea if this has been said before or is new, but for those in the US, technic.lego.com shows the 1H sets "coming in August 2014"

I stand corrected, didn't know 3x11 panel like that even existed until now 9 then

Hem Hem (scuse bad photo edit)

No 4WD if I read correctly earlier, and I'll agree it isn't the prettiest thing, but in my mind, it's not too bad. But a great parts pack, it's what, 11 5x11 panels in red? That's how many I can see at least.

Just noticed: That badly photoshopped remote Hope it really doesn't look like that

Looks like BASIC. What the BBC Micros used. Hrm. Given enough tinkering and playing around, you'll probably be able to get it to work eventually. I know you can get a BASIC emulator for PCs, don't know whether that might help in getting it to work. Goodness knows if it could work with something connected externally, like a VM does. Talking about VMs, if you get it connected to a computer, maybe you could run some ancient OS on a VM to work with it. Could work? Oh and don't worry, you aren't the only young one

Oh the interface wants you to dismantle your desktop and connect it to the motherboard, then plug in the external device to that. Then you can program it from your computer. Seems an interesting setup, although goodness knows whether it would still work. I agree on the temperature sensor, fun item, but little uses Making a printer from it sounds like a good idea if you get it working! Maybe the school, could help you in terms of getting the interfaces fitted to a computer for you to use?
