I think it would be possible to drive both bogies with a single motor there?

I got mine second-hand for 100 but even 130 isn't a bad price considering all the PF parts it has.

I will probably submit my Wheel V2.0 Although its an old model..

I have no idea why they decided to introduce these but they are terrible..and have appeared in almost every technic set of the past years >.>

Very interesting work, but as said, you need multiple samples to get more valid results. Beams can be easily ordered in lots from bricklink. - Sok.

Sweet :)

Where'd you get them for that price?

That is neato.

I'm a great fan of trackside structures. A decently sized new railway station would be sweet (7937 is an abomination), or a cargo yard (again, bigger than the previous one please!). Or god forbid, LEGO made RC switchpoints. - Sok.

Wallet disagrees.

Image has been flipped, they do that very often in flyers and newspapers sometimes with hilarious effects. I also bought a 8069 shovel for myself today (mini LA's!), priced conservatively at 46 bucks, and it has a fair few useful parts despite the design being a bit flimsy and unoriginal (so much empty space inside lol). - Sok.

Impressive is the correct word. The gear system, despite the problems it had, is a piece of art and reminded me of the 8480 space shuttle. - Sok.

Is there an option to enter the dimensions of the available space into the software so you it automatically checks at every step whether you stay within the limits?

A dutch shop in Ede has them for 160, they sold 8 on the day they had and will have new ones in stock monday. - Sok.

I don't know, it just sounds like forever.

7 hours build time? dude

It will be difficult to prove #1, and I don't see any problem with #2, that stuff has been going on for years. - Sok.

Me > You could at least give credit to the designed of this car. Him > Thanks for your input. The design is modified. Me > Not in a way that sets it apart from the model that the original creator designed. I must be..the fifth at least to tell you that, and I will be taking action to involve Ebay in this unless you modify the auction to explicitly state that this is someone elses design. Him > I improved upon the basic concept so there are differences, I apologize that you do not agree with that. You also are incorrect with your estimate that you are the fifth to speak with me about this. I have reviewed all of eBay's policies and I have not violated any of them so I'm not exactly sure how you would go about this. Furthermore, I don't understand what the issue is as I am not taking credit for the design and am selling the parts needed to make this model. I am not selling the instructions as stated, but rather the parts or the model as a whole. I will modify the listing to appease you and I understand your concern and claims but they are not justified. Me > I have proof of communication of at least three other people who told you what I did so do not deny that. In fact, you are taking credit for the design because you mentioned that you 'designed it with a friend'. If you modify the listing as I mentioned earlier I would be satisfied. It's just a matter of who gets credit for what, I have no problem with you selling the model in itself We shall see...

Time for more people to threaten him to inform ebay of copyright infringement or something. I know I just did.

I'm sure there will be plenty of modifications to fix that.

I will definitely have to get two sets then just for the tires :D

I know of several people who buy large quantities of sets (and by large I mean 50 or more), take them apart and then sell the boxes, instructions and all the different parts through various channels, which is probably the source of some of those. There is good money to be made there because the individual parts of some sets can net up to twice as much as the set itself cost. I've done it on a smaller scale when I was younger, it takes some starting capital and a lot of time, but it can really make a good profit. - Sok.

http://link.marktplaats.nl/469447428 I know the guy, traded parts with him before. - Sok.

Let me know what your experience with that shop turns out to be, I might buy one there when I get salary :D - Sok.

Intertoys, a major dutch toy store franchise has them listed for €190 but 'not yet available'.
