Thirdwigg's MOCs
Thirdwigg replied to Thirdwigg's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Another small little project. This one inspired by set 6546. With working flat four engine, four wheel suspension, and steering. Building instructions available. Much more at thirdwigg.com. Enjoy. -
I just noticed that too. Yeah, it sticks out a little high. I wonder how many of these dump trucks have a 1 cylinder engine?

Making some progress on The Queue. The ATS. The MD 600N. Also the JCB 531 is done. -
Interesting topic. I would be neat to see the Racers Theme return.

Here we go. Always an interesting topic, but as others have said, the parts are more interesting (and more often purchased) than the sets.

Very well done. The rear suspension is great. -
[WIP] Chassis Project
Thirdwigg replied to Phoxtane's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Thanks for the shout out. I found the rear suspension worked well, but I never gave it a lot of power. If you need to add a lot of power consider removing the wheel hubs and creating your own so you may use a U-Joint rather than the CV-Hub connection. Like this:- 20 replies

Thirdwigg's MOCs

Yep, the rotor head is the easy part, it's the swashplate and the controls where it gets difficult. I made some good progress last night. -

Getting back to work on The Queue after the Mini Contest. Starting on a project that has been on my wish list for a while. Time to make a working helicopter, and here is the beginning. Don't worry the ATS will be done eventually. And the JCB needs to be published. -
This has been a great contest. Another great entry.

Thirdwigg replied to Thirdwigg's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Thanks all, I had a lot of fun making this. It is something much different than what I have made in the past. I have some instructions, which should be posted on Brickshelf soon. Jim, can you edit the entry post to list 192 parts? -

Thirdwigg replied to Thirdwigg's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I guess I never posted this here, but the Typhoon is done. Check it out at thirdwigg.com, or my brickshelf folder. Four power function features, and four manual controls. Oh, and rockets. You have to have rockets. -
Sunday should be a little less busy. Stop by and say hello.

Friends, I'll be at Brickworld this year. If you happen to be in the area, please stop by and say hello. You can check out my new business cards, and my completed 1:13 Hawker Typhoon, among other MOCs. Thirdwigg.com

Anybody here attending Brickfair?
Thirdwigg replied to drdesignz's topic in LEGO Events and User Groups
I'll be at Brickworld. It's worth it, but I don't know how it compares to Brickfair.
