    One of my GBC modules with a PF servo motor.

    that's easy to find out... let it run on LEGO world NL (7 days) for a couple of time :-)

    Actually.... it doesn't matter at what speed the motors in your modules are running. What is important is that I can easily spot at what speed I need to switch on your regulator when I have fixed your module. I use these tiles: http://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3068bpb0703#T=C&C=1 to mark the speed of the regulator. Klaus Hansen sets the speed on the regulator and uses the switches to switch off one or more modules. His switches can only be used in one direction to switch the module on again. It is important for the other participants of the GBC circuit to be able to see what speed your motors need. If I don't see anything, it means full power clockwise.

    Yes, I use a lingerie bag to. No soap. My balls don't get that dirty... I connect a couple of modules to one train regulator, depending on which motors are used in these modules. I try to not to max-out the regulators. I mostly use one extension cable per regulator and one switch per module. A switch gives you extra cable length, polarity switch option and the possibility to switch off only this module in case of a problem. Offcourse I also have plenty 220v powercable with plenty of sockets... This picture gives you an idea of what I bring to an event...

    My LEGO balls are regularly washed in a washing machine. As I normally bring 1250 bals to an event, I also wash them in bulk... On events there is a lot of dust falling down on the exhibited models. That is why a lot of people cover their models with plastic after closingtime. I don't cover the modules so they gather dust from the event and also dust from the wear and tear of the modules themselves.

    I will give it a try to create come building instructions. Philo gave me his permission to make the instruction of his RCX ball counter module available to the public through my Youtube channel: And the pdf on my website:http://www.greatballcontraption.nl/ Kind regards, Maico Arts

    You could use the plate version of the freestyle hinge. And use it on different heights in your structure. It is more stiff than de brick version. And you can use as much as you want depending the available height...

    I would suggest you start with building a LEGO Technic set, so you can get a feeling how to build with LEGO and then start to design your model/MOC

    I am interested!

    Rims seem to be the same size as the unimog wheel rims

    Visit Brick 2015 in Excel London! I will be there with my fellow Dutch GBC builder Ben Jonkman.

    I have asked Jean-Marc. He is ok with it that you create instructions of his module(s). Offcourse you need to mention him as the designer of the module...
  18. Maico
    That one is not mine. This one is build by Jean-Marc Nimal, A Belgian GBC builder.

    You can continue with your ldd file to get any further. My spare time is limited...

    I didn't have the time to do anything with it. I was in Belgium at Brick Mania Seneffe. Tomorrow you will find the movies on my YT channel...

    You can hardly see in this LDD. But 9v system is right. I still must change the inbox anyway because it cannot hold too many balls...
  23. Maico
    When I start with this BI then I will first import it in MLCAD. I like that one much more than LDD... Plus I don't think Lpub3D can handle LDD files. But we can check that. Or ask the developper of LPub3D...

    we still have to wait before the folder will be made public...

    looks promising!
