    It is very good idea to resort parts before build in review, so LEGO fans could make build of official sets more enjoyable. What is very usefull for me is the price of pf elements included in 42095 set without other parts. All reviews are very easy to understand despite "earthquake" (I would probably have similar reaction on xl sprockets but in my case 70kg would not cause to much damage ) Generally I like more pictorial reviews than videos, so there is nothing to complain.

    That is plausible, I did not think so far ahead ?
  3. 1gor
    That explains the look of it. Did you put fake engine in it (somewhere)?

    @hpil What is the overall diameter of rear tire? You will have to recalculate differential ratio for rear and use central differential...like on my old John Deere 7230R here

    I agree completely with @Rudivdk, and I'm waiting to see end result. Happy New year

    IMHO your B&W photos have artistic value

    It is very interesting build Every day when I'm driving to work I drive some 20 metres new one white reach stacker but I did not have seen technical details and dimensions, so I hope that you did. Arocs is very good model with plenty of parts so large vehicles variety are possible as C - model.

    This is indeed optimisation at highest level, I take my hat of

    I have two years calculated, searching for tire solution and did not find 3rd party tire that suits LEGO tire tread, so I have decided to make machinery where it fits most products, so I have ended up in 1:15 scale. First model was Unimog U423, second is Fastrac, but mine have only motorized functions like pto and hitch because I have not enough of elements and here in Croatia they are very expensive. My Fastrac needs few pieces when they will be available here, but in my tread you follow development:

    The scale that @hpil chose would result in huge moc and if he used 1:13.5 scale as I supposed, your solution with rear tire could be perfect for himself. I would also like bigger, but I'll be more than happy with 120mm tractor tire, or smaller, but my subconscious says - I'm happy with current situation because I have no extra savings for completely new (big) set with this kind of tires, and my feeling is that eventually based on CLAAS and LEGO cooperation we could have only harvester that uses new xl sprocket wheel and tracks at the front and existing tractor tire at the rear (surprisingly it perfectly fit to 1:15 scale). Other groups of CLAAS products are telehandlers and wheeled loaders that are not trailers, ballers... I suppose that Volvo is better choice for wheeled loader and Scorpion (telehandler) is developed together with Liebherr and I do not know if LEGO and Liebherr have any kind of agreement. Honestly lots in this post is more suited content for technic pub, but it is up to @Jim to decide about that.

    See This model has rear tire 520/85R38, 580/70R38, 650/65R38 or even 710/60R38 tire and all belong to Group 46 that are 1855mm in diameter, so you are free to recalculate Brochure with general information is here https://www.google.hr/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://www.masseyferguson.com.au/documents/Massey%20Ferguson%206700S%20Brochure.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjKj4i35snfAhWGESwKHQmzD5wQFjABegQICBAB&usg=AOvVaw2M-MKpSTBgju7V8SyHmD4Y&cshid=1546250234709

    There is also JCB Fastrac 4220 by @Technic BOOM that could be helpful for some solutions. Regards

    You know there is one rule: power lies in peace. I know the feeling; I have Fastrac chassis rebuild dozen if times until I got right proportions and end up with complete unconventional solutions because there is no Lego beam 3 X 4, so I had to use huge number of those https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=15100&idColor=11#T=S&C=11&O={"color":11,"iconly":0} Your solution looks very smooth, simple and efficient

    @ukbajadave, @Erik Leppen and @Jurss are completely right, but I suggest one more thing - use technic cam part instead of those black connectors. Technic cam part nr: 6575 https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=6575&in=S Instead of those two: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=6553&idColor=11 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=32039&idColor=11#T=S&C=11&O={"color":11,"iconly":0}

    Now you are tempting me to make one in 1:15 scale but fir this I need new Corvette...?
  17. 1gor
    I understand what you mean. Tire dimensions I wrote were two days ago at salesman where o drive side by side with Wendy Vario 5 series... The reason that I mentioned 1:13.5 scale is that is some kind of standard for truck movers (together with 1:17.5). Ok my mocs are in 1:15 scale so perhaps I'm not perfect example, but in order to replicate correct proportions, you will have to maintain some front to rear wheel ratio...there is also less powerful version of MF 6 series which use a bit smaller front and rear tire, 540/65 R24 front and 600/65 R38 rear. The reason I use wider tires as reference is chronic Lego tire problem - they are always to wide (except truck tires); example is my current project JCB Fastrac 4220 based on 710/60R30 tires in 1:15 scale (you got the picture 107 mm X 15 is approximately 1605mm in diameter which corresponds tires 600/70R30 and mentioned 710/60R30). Did you plan to have fully RC or just to use pf for pto and 3 point hitch?

    Hi, First of all congratulations on taking challenge to build tractor with "missing" tire choice. Perhaps most simple (and cheapest) solution for you will be to follow example by @TeamThrifty with his Axion About tires; usual tires on this model are 540/64R28 front (overall diameter 1422mm) and 650/65R38 rear (overall diameter 1855mm), so if you plan to use 107mm CLAAS tires, you should make 1:13.5 scale model to have properly dimensioned tires Good luck

    I know what you mean, but newer version ( that supports this) does not work so smooth. A little bit off-topic; I was looking for years for smartphone with removable battery and it works smooth enough with older YouTube app ? Pawel I appreciate that you trying to help me

    Very nice review, I'm glad that you use traditional technology so I do not have do add additional software to my (smart)phone to see (e.g. 3D) review
  21. 1gor
    It is very cute
  22. 1gor
    It looks nice Thanks for new year's wish and I return this wish to everyone. Thanks
  23. 1gor
    @Ngoc Nguyen B version actually could be something like Volvo conceptual excavator (not necessary in yellow) because spider cranes have stabilizers and tracks with small sprockets (but there are only 4 of them usually)
  24. 1gor
    Yes, she definitely is I'm glad that you solve an issue with landing gear leg. It is very familiar feeling to me when you spent hours of work and then you could not believe how simple solution should be...

    Whole Construction looks very sophisticated
