    Same issue here. Not to mention I used to browse daily simply looking at where I left off of the previous day from my mobile device. Now I have to jump 30 pages every time just to see the newer posts in a single thread. I don't follow along nearly as much as I used to say the least.... I probably missed a ton of fantastic creations because of this site update....

    I prefer digital. Helps free up space on my building desk. I can't stand the glare from lighting on paper instructions. I did however notice the instruction color quality this year has improved. I store my instructions in file folder hangers in a filing cabinet so size doesn't matter.

    Nice. Do you have a photo of the underside? I checked your blog and flickr but didn't find one.

    Amazing just amazing.

    The truck looks great and what a wonderful step outside of the super car category.

    Looks good but real chains have some slack.

    I called my local lego store today to find out if they had them on the shelf and what the price was. Mind you I know three of the employees and spend good money at this particular store each year. He said to me, not shelving until Aug 1st and price is unknown. Drove to my local Toys R Us, two were sitting on the shelf for $119.99 USD. Today there was 20% discount on Technic. I went to the register to purchase the set. She said it's not part of the sale. I said it's technic like the sign says. They honored the discount so I got it for $94.99 USD. My thought is the sale ends today and they accidentally stocked this set to fill shelf space. I hope I got a good deal at that price. I feel I did....

    Stick with mocs from Madoca, and Nico71 if you can't afford buying instructions. Both builders combined will give you years of building for free due to how many mocs and free instructions they offer. Otherwise spend the $10 on instructions of your choice and be happy you did.

    Thomas Zettl. You can find him on Rebrickable.

    Looks nice. I actually printed the color 3d renders from Rebrickable on to Avery mailing labels then cut them to size to fit on my akro mills containers.

    Hey Grum great progress. You may want to review the steps involved for the head rests on the seats. I think they are positioned wrong. I did the same thing on mine.

    In 2012 I bought a 16 pack of 2000mah eneloop NiMH batteries and a PowerEx MH-C9000 charger / conditioner. To this day they charge full, hold charges extremely well and discharge at correct rates. I recommend these batteries. I went with that PowerEx charger because of the break in cycle and conditioner cycle.

    @Robert : this topic Jim created is a review topic. There are tons of Ackerman steering examples on this forum. You should probably start your own thread discussing your questions and ideas or review the search results here on EB. Let's leave the review topic on topic.

    @Robert : what you are describing is called Ackerman steering however the dually wheels on the rear end of a dump truck wouldn't steer. Now a setup similar to a 10x4 would have an addition axle for support and steering.

    For finished models meant specifically for display only I tend to make sure absolutely no finger prints are found. I also align pins and bushes symmetrically like others have stated. But yea I can't stand finger prints on display models. The ucs tumbler is a great example..... lol.

    Dave21 posted what looks to be the same axles in the axle thread a few hours ahead of your post. Was his post inspirational?

    Due to limited time allowed for building some of my recent building has stretched over the course of a month but only 1 day a week. The ucs sets would sometimes drag out a couple of bags at a time for one sitting. I do have the issue of skipping many steps and just building the finished section... the instructions do get boring.

    Haven't you mentioned this idea repeatedly in other threads? I recall others responded with actual working mocs of equal size if not even larger. To answer your question: yes a working model would be awesome.
  22. 750ACE
    These are nice. I'm not sure why you say not worthy. Don't let others egos get in the way.
  23. 750ACE
    Bricksafe, brickshelf, flickr. Pick one and post your mocs here.

    I like it but how does it steer when in a single assembly? For some reason I feel machines will be more advanced in 2045 however I may be wrong.

    Amazon showed the book was available a few days ago for sale in US. I was actually going to buy it as it popped up as one of my recommendations.
