Hi. Guys! :) The high pace in building agricultural models I imposed myself last year meant that I had to take a break. I need something completely different and new challenges. Then I decided that it would be interesting to build an alternative model for the official set. The limited amount of bricks always boosts creativity. The 42100 set doesn't have a B model at the moment. When I saw model of Bobcat loader build by my friend Makkes', I thought it might be a pretty interesting idea for an alternative model. However, I didn't want to build a typical skid steer loader. Looking through this type of machine, I found the Bobcat T870. It is interesting because it has additional links and support arms. For what? Well, to get the vertical lift path. The whole system eliminates the bucket moving back effect and this makes loading onto trucks much easier. I built a loader in just over two weeks. Scaled to the wheels gave a 1:9 result. From the first pin, I planned that the model would be built modularly. It caused me a bit of problems but I learned a lot and the whole construction contains 14 modules. I started by building caterpillars and I am very proud of them. Technic links are very well stretched much better than in model A. The model is not complicated but its construction gives a lot of fun for example connecting the caterpillars with the frame and then the drive. When I ran out of one cardan, I decided to assemble it from the available elements. I wouldn't be myself if I didn't take care of visual issues. I knew at the planning stage that I wanted to finish the cabin with pneumatic hoses as a cage. I added many details such as oil tank, distributor, radiator, muffler. When we talk about visual details, operator's seat is my favorite part. I am aware that the model does not use the full potential of the set. Only a Control HUB and three engines and some parts are left for use. I treat this model as a warm-up before the next one Marek, as usual, create building instructions for the model and of course he did a perfect job. The original application is not suitable for control this model, so I decided I would create another instruction for the BuWizz application so that everyone could easily configure it. Model dimensions: Length 42cm, Width 23cm, Height 26cm, Weight 2480 gram Drive 2x XL, arms lifting XL, tilting bucket L motor. The building instructions are available at: https://sellfy.com/p/dwatsg/ https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-37222/M_longer/42100-skid-steer-loader/ Photos and video below. This is my first alternative model so I am interested in your opinions.

So, Marek finished working on the building instructions. I have to admit that the model is damn hard to build but that's how it was moved step by step ... chapeau bass This manual is so professionally done that it even impressed me. Bravo!

Xerion wheels are unfortunately too big for this scale. I'm still waiting for the smaller version but Lego has time for it :(

Hello again! This is the fourth model this year. Introducing the Claas Scorpion 756 telehandler! I've always wanted to build a telehandler. My other machines are 1:17 and it seemed impossible to me. Looking at other models, however, I decided to take the challenge I started to build my chassis inspired by Manitou's colleague Lorens. There is not much left of it. Including that the entire chassis was turned upsite down. The vehicle drives by the lagre engine and the steered by servo motor. It also has four-wheel drive. The loader arm is moved by three medium motors. The first lift which fits under the arm together with the long cylinder from the 42100 set. He gave it the correct geometry. The second one is in the arm and extends it. The third is at the end and controls the attachments. The whole thing is controlled by two Sbrick's. I am very happy how the model looks. Unfortunately, there are no fenders because there was not enough space for them. Photos: Video: Thanks for reading and watching!

Interesting choice! Since I've finished my claas telehandler I've been looking at projects like yours! @I_IgorHave you already planned what functions your JCB will have? What engines will you use?

This moc is ispired by Marek alternate model? https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-22014/M_longer/42078-alternate-mack-granite-snow-plow/

One of the satisfied customers sent outdoors photos of the Fendt model. Looks very good! :D

Only one model today :D For a long time I wanted to build a classic agricultural trailer. It was supposed to be a standard double axle version. However, when I built the New Holland and Fendt tractors, I changed my mind and decided to build a tandem trailer. I made such a decision for a simple reason. The only output that can be controlled in tractors is the PTO shaft. This version of the trailer does not have to have a pneumatic system or engine to raise the kiper. In addition, the model had to be in a popular color because I wanted to create an instruction for it. The choice fell on Krampe Big Body 550. Trailer frame The frame is a fairly simple liftarm structure. The first version had a pendular suspension, but I had to remove it because the loaded trailer was unstable. Thanks to this, I could additionally strengthen the frame and move the cylinder towards the hitch in order to increase the load capacity. At the moment, it is about 1 kilogram Tipper I wanted to build a realistic model. Because of that I had to give up technic panels. If I used them, the tipper would weigh 1/3 of its current weight. Bricks are heavy, so the payload has dropped. The model looks very good like model–team one. I am glad that I managed to reproduce the curvature of the sides. The tailgate lifts automatically when the tipper is lifting. The trailer has a system of pull rods that lift it up. If the tractor has a pneumatic system, it can be replace by lego pnaumatic cylinders as a separate function Thanks for reading!

I have checked the dimensions for you once again in the same way as they are checked when measuring the tractor. Length 295mm Width 173mm Height 185mm So the model deviates from real dimensions because it just has to be different. The lego tires are wider than the real ones, which means that the same tractor is automatically wider. When you build a scale model, you pay attention to the look. Therefore, the other dimensions also deviate from the original. Everything happens for a simple reason. If I built only a wider model but not higher or longer, it would look like a caricature. Currently, despite the changed dimensions, the proportions are preserved. Remember also that the chassis was ready. This technique I have been using for many years in my models and has always worked. Well done for your vigilance :)

Worthy Plow! :D

Thank you steph for your interest. It is very nice to me. Below is a picture that will answer many of your questions. More can not betray :) For a long time I have not been a fan of many additions in the model. I prefer fewer functions but make the model run smoothly and visually smooth. Theres no pendular front axle that the frame was stronger. The model is light, so it does not need an acerman steering :)

The Fendt model is based on my last New Holland tractor. The entire body was built from scratch and the rebuilt front three piont hitch. The hood was the biggest challenge because it has 4 studs wide and there is a medium engine inside. I have to admit that the green tractor I like more than blue :) The tractor has a drive with a Large motor with gear ratio 1:7 and steering using a servomotor. Three-point hitch systems are raising by the medium's engine . The front one can be detached. In addition, the power shaft drives the medium motor (gear ratio 1:3). The model has 4 functions so it is controlled by sbrick. I made the first plow projects before entering the dark age. That was 15 years ago. From that time, the model elements were in the corner and I sometimes came back to them. The plow is rotated using a large turntable drives by power shaft. It has a mechanism that sets the support wheel during rotation of the plow. Lego gears have small lags but it does not affect the operation. Thanks to the idea, M_longer Creations managed to replace the bodies of liftarms with very realistic ones. To make it look even better I used a minifig machete. The end result is very good I think The manual for the models was made by M_longer Creations and can be purchased here: https://rebrickable.com/users/M_longer/mocs/ Below you can see more photos and video:

I realize that fixing this problem is very simple. However, the fact that you committed it in the basic mechanism is a problem. I note that the model itself is very nice except this one and I like it very much.

The model is impressive but you made a very big mistake. Why are the rakes move the hay to the sides and not to the center?

@hpil It's nice to hear that you are inspired by my models. Your MF promises to be a very successful model so it's good that you want to take care of its appearance. I will follow the progress :) P.S also have tires that you used in the back: D

Unfortunately, nothing will change my mind. There are a lot of illegal connections in the model. Without them it is impossible to build this model so there will be no instructions ;)

@technicbuilder nope, only for tractor

They are made of little bit harder rubber as xerion tires and they perfectly fit for 43 mm rims

Thank you all for a very positive opinion. As an addition, I would like to show you what the model with Playmobil 86x26 tires looks like which I have adapted to replace smaller agricultural tires

When building a model, I tried not to waste bricks. At the stage of creating the manual, we introduced some delicate changes so that everyone could build it with the original parts available I immediately used a charged battery so that it would not have to be removed from the frame because it is actually a problem. Unfortunately, the mask is too narrow to hide there. @I_Igor I follow your progress in models and I like them a lot. I am waiting for both MF and Fastrac! <3 Thank you all for the very positive feedback! :)

Ever since Lego released the 42054 set, I've been waiting for a smaller size agricultural tire to be able to build a medium-sized tractor. Unfortunately, there are no smaller agriculture tires, but I decided to build a medium size tractor :) New Holland TM 140: The model was built to create instructions. Knowing this, I've created a compact chassis that I can use in the future. The tractor has a drive with a Large motor with gear ratio 1:7 and steering using a servomotor. Three-point hitch systems are raising by the medium's engine . The front one can be detached. In addition, the power shaft drives the medium motor (gear ratio 1:3). The model has 4 functions so it is controlled by sbrick I had to limit the amount of details so that everyone can easily build such a model after buying the instructions. The original fits very well with building from bricks. I am very happy with how it looks because it's hard to know that it's a LEGO model. The instructions have been created for me by M_Longer Creations. Thanks Marek! Parts list in Rebrickable, Bricklink XML, Brickstore and png versions can be found here: https://bricksafe.com/pages/M_longer/misc/nh140 Instructions can be bought at Sellfy and Rebrickable: https://sellfy.com/m1longer https://rebrickable.com/users/M_longer/mocs/ Claas Quadrant 2200RC I did not want to build only a tractor. I decided that I would build a straw baler. I chose the Claas Quadrant 2200 RC. It seemed to me that it would be possible to copy it very well in bricks. The original machine has very many curves. In the end, I managed to build everything and put a lot of details. An additional function is moving the straw bales and the next ones can be put on the top of the machine. More photos: Video: Thank you for reading and all the comments! :)

It's good to see that someone has started to build Fastrac :) After the pictures WIP looks like a well-thought-out model. I had to postpone my construction of 4220, so I am waiting for further progress @I_Igor

Right @I_Igor. My John Deere is on a scale of 1:18, which is a bit smaller than it usually builds and because the tires have 107 mm. @Sjoemie himself like working on your model. You chose an interesting tractor to build. I am waiting for the final result :)

Hi, gentlemens. The best solution for the 2.2 tires is the 62mm D. x 46mm Technic Racing Large wheel from the Powe Puller set. Below is a photo for comparison. The solution is very stable and you can put a 10x10 dish on it

@BrickbyBrickTechnic I remember that! :D Your model has motivated me to build my own :) @MxWinters The drive works better than I expected. The frame is very flexible and the rought terrain is not a problem :)
