Mechbuilds

I'm interested too. Send me a PM with the image of your collection.

I wonder why don't we see any mechas that are build from mostly technic and only using CCBS for joints. I'd love to see some technic based mechwarriors. If anyone knows any technic based mechs then please share what to google for.

Well in my last posts they told me to resize the images smaller. My camera takes 13 megapixel images. But you can see better detail in the album where the images are at: https://imgur.com/a/JIm8A Enjoy! I have a 3rd mech ready and the 4th one is halfway done. Pictures coming soon.

boop.

Mech size: Medium Mech class: Artillery scout Equipment: -Shoulder mounted large laser -Arm mounted autocannon -Arm mounted large missile launcher -Medium armor -Shoulder mounted radar This mobile frame is equipped for heavy artillery long range combat while having a tactical radar system for scouting. This frame is very effective in fishing out rogue frames and dealing with them before they get too close. PICS:

Here's my new series of mocs: Mobile Frame The mech must fit in these docking bays: (Small, Medium, Large) (Medium sized docking bay equipped for the CB-0) Introducing the CB-0 Mech size: Medium Mech class: Combat bruiser Equipment: -Shoulder mounted autocannon -Shoulder mounted sensor array -Heavy armor -Arm mounted artillery cannon (Can be seen in fresh picture with AS-2) The combat bruiser frame is a very versatile combat mech that shines in medium to close combat. The frame is equipped with a powerful autocannon that can shred trough small frames with ease. With an open arm, the combat bruiser can grasp other mechs or use obstacles like trees for an advantage. Pics: Weapons added: -Twin cannon -Ballistic cannon (These weapons are no longer available) Resting in docking bay: Second medium sized docking bay active: Second frame under construction.

What i would like is a very simple piece which would add a little bit of width to the lower torso leg part of my mocs.. What part am i talking about? This friction adder part. BUT for the socket part to be rotated 90 degrees. So i can attach the socket sideways to my moc and the ball to be pointing downward so i can attach a leg straight to it.

Awesome!

Well i like to use imgur because it's simple and i'm already registered there so all i need to do is click the icon in my favorites list. I could just put a list of links instead and only display one image next time.

Heh Millenium falcon.

Well a moderator told me that my pics are too big so i hid them with spoilers to fix the problem. I personally use a PC because i'm oldschool so large images never bothered me. Don't know how the images can slow down the forum since imgur is hosting them?

Yes this is made from the 42055 set This could be made tracked too. The reason why i used wheels is because the maneuverability is better because if i made it tracked, i would have had to use the motor and BB which would have made the model heaps larger. Also making the tracks go back and fourth AND turn would be a headache to do with only one motor. Agreed. It's the smallest arm i could think of while using three LA's. I could make it smaller by using only one LA and clever linkages but i prefer not to. It's still pretty balanced once you deploy the outriggers. Even when the arm is reaching at it's maximum. However, lifting anything is a different story. Thanks! This lego technic hobby is a new thing for me and my brother got me into it. This is my first finished MOC from technic.

Completed.

This is my heavy utility vehicle no1. Functions: -Manual steering -Working fake v4 -Functional manual outriggers -Turnable top half -Tilting cockpit -Manual excavator arm with three LA's -Swappable arm attachments (Including bucket + rammer + worker lift) MORE PICS: (Warning, high quality large images)

How about mounting the seats on a geared turntable so the seats spin as the turntable spins the seats. Like a carousel.

It would be 10 times more wackier if the seats could spin.

Update! Tweaked the frame a little and i'm pretty pleased with it at the moment. I might put some details here and there but the bottom half is now finished.. For the top half, i'll probably make either a crane or an excavator type of deal.. PICS: It's amazing how much weight these tiny little outriggers can hold. You could push it down so hard that the frame bends but the outriggers won't give. The rear outriggers are a hard nut to crack because the front ones were just perfect.. But i think this version is the best you can do with that space. Thoughts?

This is what inspired me: But i'm building something else. I'll just go with the flow and see what i come up with.

I don't know how, i'm using imguf.. I guess i could use the "spoiler" thing.

Agreed. I dislike the headlights too.

Arms have an axle with a ball shaped end so they can be pulled apart. Same goes for hands too.

Here's a WIP of the project i'm doing. It's a medium scaled truck that has a rotating top half which will have a ...?????? But currently i'm trying to make the bottom half and shoot the steering mechanism trough the turntable. PICS: What do you guys think?

Once the package is opened, the price goes down A LOT. So the question is: Do you want to buy a set for the other person or do you want to buy the set for yourself. Lego is meant to be enjoyed. Have fun with your sets and play with them. They are not meant to be currency. That's my logical reasoning about this topic.

And i'm back with an update. I haven't given up on this project just yet. Here guys, have a fresh new set of pictures. Gearbox for bottom end done! It has a cool looking tank storage in the back in a secret compartment that opens. Thinking about making a bucket wheel excavator style scale "massive excavator" with a control room that can be moved up, down, forward ect... Big arm that can have attachable attachments like twin buckets or a pinching claw. Going to push the battery back to the rear and a large motor paired with a large gearbox to control everything. So my idea is to make an opening that has two or three gear sticks so i can control the arm with it. Like the first gear stick is drive /steer and the second one is arm up/down and arm extend/contract and third stick for attachment movement A and B. It works like this: Selecting one gear will have two functions by playing with battery rotation direction. So drive gear will have forward and reverse drives. And the steer gear will have left and right. Any tips how to make the most compact extra large engine gearbox setting that i can directly attach to the turntable on top? Does lego have an excavator that has the motor manouvering the arm with linear actuators? I should check the instructions... I currently have three linear actuators and i plan to have full arm movement with only those. (not putting two at the bottom) Also thanks in advance for helping a newbie out. I'm slowly getting the hang of building technic. I just need to stop thinking 2d and learn how to think 3d.

Few inspiration ideas for ya: Every wheel can be turned so it can go diagonally. The front will have a massive claw that can tilt everywhich way. (for picking up trees and such.) Saw blade under the massive claw for cutting? Just something that came into my mind when i read: "Caterwheelerpillar"
