Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion
thomol replied to The Jersey Brick Guy's topic in LEGO Town
Read somewhere (maybe in this thread) that fake chimneys were used at the time since multiple chimneys were a sign of wealth and status. -
Technic Hall of Fame Discussion
thomol replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The mechanical game of life, by AncientJames, belongs to the "on Blakbirds shelf" category. https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/164622-moc-mechanical-game-of-life/ -
Hm, sorry for that, I have no idea what happened when I put the link to the youtube clip of that excellent front axle. I don't dare to make another try, so you just have to search for it instead; I know it's discussed in this thread. Back to lurking...

- Is it a bird? - Is it a plane? - No, it's... no spoilers here! If my guess is right I believe we have some reading to look forward to! -

[WIP] 6x4 military vehicle
thomol replied to KKMOC Japan's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Or like a Tatra. The small wheels must be for negotiating trenches. You would get stuck in an instant without them, with that long, sticking out nose buried in the ground.- 6 replies

42055 - Bucket Wheel Excavator
thomol replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Isn't this prototypical? BWE:s only dig when they're stationary; moving the buckets sideways by turning the superstructure. When they can't reach more material the drive to a new spot and start digging again. -
42055 - Bucket Wheel Excavator
thomol replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Judging from various videos I think it's almost too fast for its scale. These things are SLOW in real life, you know. -
A two or three truck shay with two or three cylinders and all the rods and stuff in place. Shay's were narrow gauge so it could work with standard lego tracks but I would prefer a slighly larger scale with enough custom made tracks (straight plus curve) to roll the locomotive and show off the engine and the articulation. Possibility to motorize (but not standard, to keep the price down) would be a nice plus.

Remote Control Modifications

That's when you use the red buttons... Should be easy to fix if you use bevel gears instead of the universal joint. -

Same for Sweden. I think the date is gone only from AU and NZ sites. Edit: Now the "Coming soon" without date is shown on more sites, for example Sweden, Denmark and Germany. Not yet US though...
