Grum's Shed
grum64 replied to grum64's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I've got a few Dirt Crushers and use 7.2v 3500mAH batteries in them. With these Jake & George get a good 40 minutes+ of flat out fun out of them. -

Thank you but 'voting' ended on this a while ago with the 8880 being the clear favourite which is why I'm now building it. This list is just those I've still to build. -

She's looking great Edwin. You're making really good progress. I love those tenders and lifeboats -

I had doubts about the 8880 but like you, it's grown on me. I've not had time to do any building for a week or so but hope to get a few hours this weekend. As for the BWE. At the rate I'm going there's every likelihood that you'll have yours finished long before I even think about starting mine. -

With nearly 4yrs in the UK Merchant Navy you'd have thought I'd have noticed the difference. Note to self. Put your glasses on! -
My 42055 was delivered today Now I've just got to find time to finish the 8880 and build this behemoth. Edit: Spelling

I love this, it's soooooooo cute. I'm liking very much the imaginative use of parts. -

This is a great build so far Edwin but, and this may sound strange given the majesty of what you're building, my favourite parts are the davits & lifeboats. Simple but very effective :thumbup: -

I've been waiting for a forklift entry so will be following this with interest. -
[TC10] Pneumatic Walker
grum64 replied to trekman's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Not seen a pneumatic walker before so am very much looking forward to seeing this. -
I'll have to give this a go with the wheels on my 8880. They're not too bad at all but it'd be nice to see them back to their original glory. Thank you for sharing the info.

These are great, especially Ronalds head. It's brilliant.

Looks great. Completely recognisable. -
[MOC] Rock Beetle 4x4
grum64 replied to LegoDego's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Very nice. I agree with Leonardo da Bricki about liking the bodywork. Good work. -
Thank you Blakbird for a well written & very detailed review. I've had this set on order 3 times and each time I've cancelled it, your review has persuaded me to reorder it. This time there'll be no cancellation.

Considering how little time you get you've made great progress. It's looking really good.
