yes, everybody is right about this. I just want to have your opinion... I am totally aware about the fact, that if I post a LDD some people would use it for their own - maybe shabby - purpose... It isn't my purpose to take any legal actions. I just want to talk about it..

I don't have a problem with copying or modifying. But I don't like that some people earn money with it...

@JGW3000: I like the idea... Who's able to make real good instructions of my LDDs? I would contribute the LDDs, as I did them for everyone AND I would tell rebrickable to contribute the earnings to a children supporting fund...

Hi folks, since a couple of weeks I regularly find "new" items at the auction house... Anyone who knows the Unimog thread maybe knows, that I made those MOCs. What do you think of all this? Here are two examples: http://www.ebay.de/itm/LEGO-Technic-Anhanger-mit-Warntafel-Unimog-U400-8110-Pneumatic-Technik-Neu-/161227373732?pt=DE_AllesfürdKind_Spielzeug_Lego&hash=item2589e67ca4 http://www.ebay.de/itm/LEGO-Technic-Seitenschneepflug-fur-Unimog-8110-U400-Neu-/161233142824?pt=DE_AllesfürdKind_Spielzeug_Lego&hash=item258a3e8428 Pat

Hi folks, some more stuff for the forestry Unimogs... Made a log trailer with a self steered fore axle... And here's a little video: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/21147896/U400_Langholztransporter_video_720.mov Have fun... Pat

Thanks... But I don't think, that I match the qualities for cuusoo...

Thanks stefan... Yes, the second gear is for the turning of the crane.

Hi folks, new pictures and a small video... The towing shield needs a little overdo... Actual funktions in the U406: L-motor for driving S-motor for steering M-motor for rear power out M-motor for pneumatic pump... The double drum winch on the bed has it's own M-motor. Have fun... Oh, and the 6x6 dishes are on the way... And the video: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/21147896/U406_video_720.mov Pat

Thanks again... Has anyone an idea for the turnable gripper and a pneumatic extendable arm? Pat

Fixed the link to the video...

Thanks... hmmm, strange, maybe, because it's "only" dropbox and not youtube... Has anyone a clever idea how to turn the gripper with pneumatics?

Hi folks, here's a small video... https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/21147896/Nokka_logging_trailer.mov Pat

Hmm, that could be possible, but a bit short... Don't you think?

Thanks... @alasdair: hmmm, I thought about it. But without a micromotor, there won't be a chance to realize it. There's too much friction in the whole system to get a mechanical link there. As I already mentioned it regarding the turnable gripper. @unimog123: I' post some more pictures tonight... Pat

Details regarding the trailer are in this post: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=92609 Pat

Hi folks, after the short teaser last week, I'll today present the Nokka logging trailer with a pneumatic crane. The realized features are: separate M-Motor for the mechanical features, which are turning the crane and sliding out the rear end the pneumatic support comes directly form the Unimog. The pneumatic features are lifting the crane, opening the grippier and the stabilizers... The trailer is about 72 studs long, 80 studs if the rear end is out. I know there's still some things to do... Mainly stabilizing the whole construction... For one issue I really need the help of you guys! I tried to implement a turnable gripper. The mechanics work, but it's too much gearing an so it won't work. My thoughts now go in pneumatic turning. I only need 90°... Do you have an idea how to realize this? Thanks... And have fun watching the pictures. A video will come tomorrow... So far Pat

Yes, it's just for the parts...

Hmmm, the more I look at the 2H sets I think I'll only go for the pickup...

Thanks for your comments... Yes, I'll defenitly do something with the hoses. But yesterday it was too late and first I have to check what the best solution is. I don't really like cutting those hoses and than realizing, that I misplaced them...

Hi folks, just a little teaser... More pictures and details will follow... So far Pat

Hmmm, no, I think lbg wheels with red dishes. Black and red look more like a racing car :-)

Hi I_Igor, thanks for the pictures... But I have to say, that those configs don't appeal to me... I prefer the version with the 6x6 dish... Pat

Hi folks, today nothing special ;-) Zmei_gorini4 provided me with two little beacons... Looks good... Have fun watching... And again special thanks to Zmei_gorini4 for those cool beacons and the quick supply. Pat

Yes, I understand... This is a running gag... Yes, they look very similar... I didn't even know that these wheel exists in lime... Yes, they are really made for eternity.

Hi Igor, thanks for your comments. Yes, those WFtracs are really cool. I'm excited to see photos. I like the old series very much, too. I live not far from Gaggenau. And in the black forest they use those 406 very often... Pat
