Can someone tell us if the new suspension arm used in McLaren P1, can be used on 6L (connected to chassis in the pinhole before the normal one with the big shock absorber ? just to have the same length than the 6L tie rods #2739- 5,465 replies

Hi ROSch, Thanks for the part ! Can you tell me if it works on studio Mac. I have imported the 3 files in: /Applications/Studio 2.0/ldraw/collider /Applications/Studio 2.0/ldraw/connectivity /Applications/Studio 2.0/ldraw/parts but don't find it in the library when I open studio. Did I make a mistake ?

[TC20] 856 bulldozer revival
Toitoine replied to Toitoine's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi AnyUser, Yes it’s responsive, by use of blue axle pin in on gear, and direct mouvement given by low gear ratio. -
[TC20] 856 bulldozer revival
Toitoine replied to Toitoine's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
After your comments, here are 3 improvements: - yellow sprockets - connector 3L at the bottom of cabin - black 3L axle pin instead of brown axles 3L. thanks you all for these tips ! -
[TC20] 856 bulldozer revival
Toitoine replied to Toitoine's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Yes it works, no illegal build in my moc. using liftarm which are odd will be a problem because all my axle connectors linked to black axles are pair. -
[TC20] 856 bulldozer revival
Toitoine replied to Toitoine's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
thanks GerritvdG and Howitzer for your comment. @GerritvdG What do you mean exactly ? here are other views of the bulldozer. It has the same wheelbase as the original one, and one stud larger. I tried to keep all the details of the 856 (exhaust pipe, front gril, head and rear lights,...

New bull almost finished. A test with the old tracks and actual tracks: IMG_4714 by avantime78 IMG_4713 by avantime78 I prefer with the last ones, for me, it looks better and more accurate with studless parts. -

I wanted to respect the original mechanism with racks. Functions are well fixed by using blue pin/axles. -
[TC20] 856 bulldozer revival
Toitoine replied to Toitoine's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
After brain storming, several digital and physical mokup, I hope I found a good compromise to include the 2 functions in a studless structure. There are more gears in my version but it was necessary. Here are 2 exploded views made with sud.io (new for me), LDD can't be used in my new Mac :( Blue gears for the bucket orientation. Green and red gears for lifting and lowering the bucket arms. 856 studless_Copy-02 by avantime78, sur Flickr 856 studless_Copy-01 by avantime78, sur Flickr I 've put 2 gears 36 tooth to replace the grey pulleys. I didn't found other parts, may be the steering wheel of the Ecto 1 ? work in progress ! -
Tractor 851 was the first set I had when I was 8 or 9. I wanted to make a new version but the set was already chosen by BrickBuildingFox for the contest. No matter ! So I will show you a studless version of the 2nd set I received few times after 851: the bulldozer 856. 856-01-original by avantime78, sur Flickr I will build it at he same scale, and try to respect as well as possible the color scheme. First step was to find the bag containing the parts, wash them, and after replace the parts (bushes, connectors 3651), brocken by the age, I built this old 856... Hopefully the gears were OK ! After I started by the bucket. I wanted it to be build with parts and not an all in one like black buckets. So here it is, the size matter the original version, 13 studs length and a flex on the Botton to close the hole. 856-02-benne by avantime78, sur Flickr 856-03-benne by avantime78, sur Flickr Now it's time to imagine and built the bull itself !

LEGO Ninjago 2021
Toitoine replied to Driver Brandon Grumman's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Just finished to build the gardens. it’s very impressive and some interesting technics of assembly. but one thing worried me: too much use of small parts instead of a normal one. example: 3 2x1 plates instead of 6x1 plate, or 2 2x1 instead of one 4x1... Same for bricks ! lot of examples like them. I don’t understand why they do that. If it’s only to increase the number of parts on the box... -

Custom LDD bricks and fixes
Toitoine replied to Equilibrium's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Thanks for your great help M2m but it still doesn't work for me, sure I made some mistakes: - downloading LIFExtractor adds a ".html" extension after .py extension, so I delete it, right ? - Do i need to let LIFExtractor.py in "Download" folder before to run the script or copy it in "Users/toitoine/Library/Application\ Support LEGO\ Company LEGO\ Digital\ Designer/" ? - when I try to run the script in terminal, (python LIFExtractor.py /Users/toitoine/Library/Application\ Support LEGO\ Company LEGO\ Digital\ Designer/db.lif) I have an error: python: can't open file 'LIFExtractor.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory -
