[TC6] Loader of Red
weavil replied to weavil's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I did something a little more compact before http://www.bricksafe.com/pages/weavil I did the old one more of a proof of concept http://www.eurobrick......0581&hl=weavil Well I didn't have red ones for the side and wasn't thinking to put the red on the back. That was the Idea. Its one of them fancy autonomous loaders they use now. Someone/people were whining about all the yellow and black construction equipment I decided on red. -
[TC6] Loader of Red
weavil posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Here is my Loader of Red for the contest. The only black/yellow parts are the tires, bucket, pins, and axle connectors. It has the following: 4-M motors (drive, steer, lift, dump) 2-recievers 1-AA batt box Steering is done with two small LA's, lift with two big LA's, dump with one big LA. I think It could use some work??? Oh and its RED. http://www.bricksafe.com/pages/weavil/Technic%202015/TC6 -

Suggestions for string to use with LEGO?
weavil replied to apemax's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Kite string! Used it on Technic MOCs and it don't stretch, or the kite string I got. The kite string I got is about the same as the Lego thin string. -

That's why manually feed the new color with the mold open, then adjust the melting temp and how long the mold stays closed before releasing the part.- 5,506 replies

General Part Discussion
weavil replied to Polo-Freak's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
They use the same mold for all their colors. Except some of the common pieces they have more than one mold ( i.e. 2x1 brick or 3x5 liftarm) to make two or more colors at once. The machines can feed any color for production.- 5,506 replies

It looks like it could be 3D printed... or it was from a test mold and wanted to see how the final product/pictures would turn out. A designer said (in a recent article) that they sometims use 3D printed parts to help decide if a new mold is worth the investment.

4 hours late, but HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!! -
If you got the 42005 then you could get the 42029. I think its a good model, but it is an excellent parts model. However the time are a little bit smaller than the 42030. The only thing you would need to order might be a couple Technic, Link 1 x 6 without Stoppers. I have have the 42000, 42029, and the 42030, and I see all 3 as enough to make amost any thing. So 42000 and buy tire for the loader rims, or 42029 and buy the links (and/or bigger tires), or just say screw it and buy both. P.S. Just my opinion.

Is there C model of 42030?
weavil replied to tmk81's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I had been wondering that too. But looked all I can and found nothing. I too agree about the B-model too. It seems just for looks. In the last few days I was thinking if I can't find a C-model then why not make one! -
Brickfactory.info They have some on that site.

I got the 42030 (half for parts, half for the model, need the PF parts). About 3/4 done and good so far. Is it me or are the pins hard to get started in/pushed through?
