  1. A little bit less blurry But people invented Photoshop ...
  2. And it looks like it has red shocks from Porsche (42056)
  3. @gregorski904 it looks better indeed in Gulf colors
  4. Now this is what I call improvement Very good idea how you operate polarity switch. Finally project is on rolling again and this time I think in good direction.
  5. I have just read it and found out that it is based on 395/85R20 tires (like Unimog U530, U5023). Tires have 1189mm diameter, so it could be represented with 81.6 tires (perhaps Tumblers would be OK)
  6. It deffenetly is. That would be awesome MOC. Do you have link to specifications Ind PDF? Thanks @jorgeopesi
  7. CLAAS tires are certainly not for mining dump truck. In my case I really like that (my) MOC has fake engine; probably that is the reason why I have ended up in some compromised scale (1:15)...but for a weekend I could do a bit on my latest project; I sent you axle images long ago and they are in process of redesign using dog bones instead of frames 5 x 7...but it is another story. since you are more experienced with excavators / front end loaders and dump trucks; I have one question for you - is there some mining dumper truck with much smaller tires like 440/80R26 tires or something like that 8it is a same size as for JCB 4CX backhoe loader)?
  8. I understand, of course you can make CAT mining truck (with V16 fake engine)
  9. Jorge, scale (and suspension) is right, but would not it be better to make Liebherr (in white)?
  10. My assumption was based on fact that I could not find round tile with similar diameter, so most logical explanation is that gear rack like on 42082 is used; at least as "track" on which wedge belt wheels are circulating.
  11. It ended up very nice; original set wit very good improvements; something like long review
  12. @Pruimke in your first and second posted picture (of Liebherr...) there is something black and round below two wedge belt wheels, but I do not know if is it tile round or gear rack from 42082?
  13. First of all I'm glad you like it. I'm not sure If I'll find time to make proper video of Fastrac; I'll be happy to find time when spring comes to make proper photos and clean all (eventual) dust from Fastrac and put it in plastic box. For Syn-Trac I would really need lots of time to make axles work correctly with planned 3 steering modes. After I make chassis, I'll see what to do - one or double pto both at front and rear... I always read posts, but sometimes my comment could be misunderstood. with steering setup I'll see what is doable, but on Syn-trac steering modes should be easier to implement because differential is fixed in chassis...
  14. Thanks, when Spring starts I'll be able to make photos outside and then to post it here. In future I plan to make few yellow telehandlers and backhoe, so I'll have some kind of Yellow world LEGO part 15461 I use just to connect 5 x 7 frame from inside; if you take a look you will see 2 black pins in the middle on top and bottom of axle...but there is lot to do to make optimal solution... I'll try to make optimal solution IMHO and then see how it behaves under weight; model will be some 40 studs long and should not be wider than 21 studs...I have 3 different hubs, and I will probably use this one
  15. After few hours of warming up with different axle solutions, i have made small changes from version that I have built last summer; first two photos are from last summer, and the rest is today's...basically the major difference is using this part up and down in center if 5 X 7 frames to keep then together...but first images of "summer" axle version (v.0. 1) ...and version v.0.2 I hope that in few weeks there will be nice weather here so I can make some outdoor photos like first version axle, since indoor photos on my mobile phone are not something special. If someone with more building Tatra axles experience like @Zerobricks or @jorgeopesi has some idea, you are welcome. Regards
  16. Thanks; hearing that from someone who does not prefer tractors in the first place is great compliment. Honestly it was combination of circumstances and always ultimate machines are only choice, but sometimes we have to stand with both feet on ground and live with compromises and make the best if it and this attempt was actually example for that principle.
  17. He had a decent and (for a cat) ling life. Let hi rest in peace.
  18. @hpil actually I made it for myself. It is very difficult to put all the universal joints for front and rear pto and 3 point hitch in order to have decent steering angle and suspension travel. First complain from LEGO management will be why you need 8 additional universal joints / CV joints Xerion does not have drive, fake engine...but I'm flattered with your idea
  19. I really like that way you implement door locking mechanism with shock absorber
  20. Thank you Clive you know that without your help, I'll have to wait another 5-6 month to continue development due to missing blue gears... The only thing that is a problem on Fastrac are rear mudguards because they are not rounded as I wanted...later today I'll continue my previous project... Kind regards
  21. Every MOC should be build for fun in the first place (until jealous cat makes chaos...)
  22. So Scania and M.A.N. were only build for conventions.
  23. @Sjoemie himself enjoy 42055, it has some interesting building solutions; specially undercarriage. Next tractor will have independent tatra style suspension, 4 wheel steering (hope to implement 3 steering modes), all wheel drive, 6 cylinders inline engine, 4 pto (2 at rear and two at front) in which half of them will be used to power implements for specific "coupling system", tilting cab below which is battery box situated. Model will be in 1:15 scale based on Unimog tires.
