Looks terrific, are they soft or hard rubber? How do they fit rim? I have 80mm Fishertechnic tires and while they fit on rim perfectly the pattern is too rough to pair them with claas tires

This is indeed very nice creation, esp. at ~1000 parts. The only thing I don't like is that BB burried deep in frame, I would rather see it under hood, but I totaly understand it, the decision how to implement it even in bigger models always give me headache.

[Software] LDCad - LDraw cad
Ivan_M replied to legolijntje's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Thank you, this is it. I somehow expected to be able to search the library from any bin. I didn't realize the filtering option is different from search, makes sense -
[Software] LDCad - LDraw cad
Ivan_M replied to legolijntje's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
How do I search for some part across the whole library? Am I missing something obvious? The filtering option only search through current category, but when I know part number and don't know category I'm srewed. I have to open ldraw library, look for the dat file and read the category from it, not very effective. I was looking for part 24947 and found it under "sphere". I know that BL list it under round bricks and would find it immediately in studio. This is very confusing, I wish ldraw would adapt to BL categorizing -

because the current hubs require 5 horizontal studs between hub arms and those old hubs require only 3 studs. When you want to make steered and driven axle with 62,2mm wheels it is huge difference, because 5 studs high axle leave almost no ground clearance.- 5,465 replies

Some parts arrived, this would be at least 165€ on BL if such parts were actualy in stock. I wish TLG would make such parts from time to time to fill aftermarket- 5,465 replies

So bauma is getting closer and aparently there will be some Lego models on Liebherr booth: #Bauma2019 #Töbydesign #Lego #Liebherr by Tobias, on Flickr sooo maybe there will be 42100 displayed as well? Anyone going to Bauma? -
[Software] LDCad - LDraw cad
Ivan_M replied to legolijntje's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
I have made several other tweeks here and there, this is how it looks now: I'm especially glad that the current step highlight can be modified, because I had troubles locating it all the time. I have made folders for all parts I use regularly, so I don't have to go into main catalogue at all. I also had to rename some parts, I have no idea why ldraw uses such weird names for tires, for example 62,4mm tire is named "Tyre 20/ 64 x 37 S". I couldn't find any common tire there so I had modified all .dat files and gave them proper names. I still have to make some bigger project from scratch so maybe I will find more things that would be good to change, but so far I'm happy. Maybe a small part annotation in part bin would be good, esp. on long axles and liftarms. -
[Software] LDCad - LDraw cad
Ivan_M replied to legolijntje's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Thank you, it is working fine -
yes this is the same setup BWE uses. I don't like it very much, the single point of contact at quarter circle puts too much pressure on it. The solution with more rollers on 42082 is better. IMO the best solution would be to develop new part similar to 1x1 round tile but slightly smaller, that would fit into grove on gear rack and inserting a lot of such rollers along the whole circle. The weight of the supperstructure would spread much more evenly.

[Software] LDCad - LDraw cad
Ivan_M replied to legolijntje's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Cool, thank you. One more thing that would make my life easier - would it be possible to add custom commands similar to other non-visual LDraw commands? I'm particullarly looking for LPub commands 0 !LPUB PLI BEGIN IGN and 0 !LPUB PLI END. When I use a lot of buffer exchange it would be easier to add this command directly in LDcad rather then in LPub, bacause it would be possible to move it much easier. Now I use !LICENCE and !KEYWORD to mark the PLI IGN start and end, then I open the mpd file in notepad replacing all instances with correct text. Thanks -
I can see two black BWE rings in the picture mentioned on previous page, the arm is 13-15 wide and superstructure seems like 25 studs wide. I believe there is same setup like on 42082.

[Software] LDCad - LDraw cad
Ivan_M replied to legolijntje's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Thank you for the reply, I have figured out the custom bins, I should have expected this, it is quite obvious Regarding the 1) - the middle mouse button (when I click with the wheel) brings up properties window. I would like to remap it to camera movement left-right/up-down (currently shift+right mouse button). -
[Software] LDCad - LDraw cad
Ivan_M replied to legolijntje's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Afrer a long time using stud.io I have decided to take step forward and use LDCad as my main tool. There are however two things that bugs me a lot: 1) Is it possible to map camera movement to mouse wheel button i.o. propertiers? 2) Is it possible to create folders in favourite parts bin, preferable with fixed parts colors? it is extremly tedious to look for the parts, esp. when they have different color than I'm used to. Most of the technic parts are available in one color anyway. Any I don't want to browse "gear" category filled with obsolete or weird parts that i do not use at all. Like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19bF0UTdJtpfH1-VBB1hgZSyByUndVhEM/view?usp=sharing Thank you -
It is already disassembled by you can see one picture of it here: But of course it was already invented before, I got my inspiration from Dirk Klijn: Liebherr LTM 1090 4.1 - Sarens by Dirk Klijn, on Flickr What is different is the mounting, Dirks version ends with XL motor that rotate together with the accurator. In my version the accurator ends with . It is attached to the centre of the turntable like this:
-
It is system of driving skid-steering vehicle using one motor as driving and other for steering purpose only. It allows you to have different types of motors, for example XL for driving and M for steering. While it is not accurate to real thing is is quite interesting from technic view as it is featuring two differentials and a lot of gears. Real machine uses of course hydraulic motors driven by diesel/electric generator

I had the same problem with the charging you describe. The cable is NOT different, I still have the cable supplied with cada and use it with my phote and other devices. In my case the electronic circuit was dead and since it uses SMD parts and there is no datasheet it was beyond my skills to repair it.

Soo after very long time I have finished it. I had to take a brake from it because of the lack of motivation. In the end most of the functions work, but not without stressing parts. I guess I had overexpectations about some key parts (boom, outriggers), but I have learned important lessons about crane building. Please excuse the pictures, my dslr failed just right before shooting and I'm left with phone only at the moment. The final spec are: Undercarrige: L-motor for drive, 3rd axle is driven, connected to V6 engine Servo motor for steering, alxes 1&5 and 2&4 have same steering angle, all axles feature ackerman geometry M-motor for extending outriggers M-motor for powering autovalve and pneumatic compressor, it is possible to lift the crane from ground, but not without parts stressing Upperstructure: L-motor for boom lifting L-motor for slewing L- motor for boom extension, extension through wire M-motor for winch Detachable counterweight Whole album: https://www.flickr.com/photos/89695600@N07/albums/72157689610896333/with/46339523814/ 20190210_160128 20190210_160035 20190210_160605 20190210_160740 20190210_161805 20190210_162320
