  1. ...or to make your mobile phone rotating drive you mad
  2. @Imanol BB if I can help you with portal axle hubs using gears 16 and 8, please read my post (and if you want other posts in this topic dealing with my Unimog U423)
  3. I understand. One things are our wishes and another things are possibilities... When the time is right you will make you decision. Take my case; I have made several different Unimog U423 chassis (1:12, 1:14.5, 1:15, 1:16, 1:17.5 and 1:18) and the truth is always somewhere in the middle ? ...so everything is compromise.
  4. I assume it should be this one.. http://rogergsmith.typepad.co.uk/.a/6a00e54efb2c7088330133f588d334970b-popup First thing what I see that you need additional 2 cylinders...
  5. We always make some (problems) ?
  6. Well, on my phone it was displayed without image...? Thanks for correction ?
  7. Hope that this image will be displayed during your reviews ? Thanks for instructions; perhaps when I built new PC I'll install ldd to see your work ? Honestly I don't know, had same head scratcher several times before ?
  8. Nice ? Take well deserved rest
  9. ...and it has truck tires with ordinary street pattern ?
  10. Well in winter when I first heard about forklift truck this came across my mind
  11. Thank for fast answer. Set looks great. I have to ask you for one favour - could you please add double wheels at the front and then post image with that solution. Thanks @M_longer
  12. Every thing has good and bad side, it is up to us which side we prefer. Personally 42070 is waaaaay to expensive here in Croatia, but after I have 42077 set I'm fan of dark azure color... Thanks Marek ( @M_longer ) for images, but I have one question because I have downloaded parts list image in low resolution; above part https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=87408&idColor=11#T=C&C=11 Is there black axle 3 with stop or something else; I could not see it clear enough. As I already said forklift has some nice simple solutions ?
  13. I use both 5 X 7 and 11 X 5 frames on my models chassis because they give me additional stiffness
  14. Typical example is 42070 set; the way LEGO designers made rear chassis part gave me idea how to solve stiffness problem on my MOC Unimog chassis (sorry for offtopic), so certainly 42079 set will provide us with some useful ideas.
  15. That is always interesting because in this way we found out about new techniques and optimisation
  16. For more it is not such problem...Usually I buy sets for parts but sometimes I keep sets built like Arocs or Unimog
  17. I agree with you on that ? (That is the reason I bought 42075 and 42077 set)
  18. @M_longer thanks for parts list. It is nice set with all major functionalities of real forklift. The fact that this set uses small amount of gears speaks for efficient design ?
  19. Forgot to mention that I like the way you made chassis stiffer with frames ? (It is technique that I also prefer so chassis remains stiff and thin at the same time)
  20. And friction level depends on mold used for axle on which bush is going...?
  21. Try using fresh bananas and not those with leopard sample (and pumped with sugar) At least Terrier (Westin highland) has no color vomit and looks perfect (as Terriers are). Crane is impressive and huge. Thank you very much for all those pictures @Ctan
  22. Agree my gemstone friend, but look this year as optimisation on usage of existing parts
  23. To be honest I'm curious (also) about forklift ? ...and @Jim please pin reviews for some time (until interest wears off) so we can enjoy beautiful pictures if new sets Thanks
