  1. 9x9x5. And plain on top and bottom, only mounting points are located on sides.
  2. Another update; I am making first try on modeling the rear part of the loader, along with fitting that huge C+ hub inside. Ouch.
  3. You are aware that truck built in scale with 42100 will be a little bigger than City trucks?
  4. Not so much, the picture above was made with using Ldraw and Gimp.
  5. I have made a dimensions check and it seems that front parts needs some tweaks:
  6. Me too. The arm has been rebuilt, along with front frame, it is much more rigid now. The front lights are just placeholders, they will be changed on the end.
  7. It depends on my shift at work, sometimes I spend none, sometimes I have building marathons for 8-9 hours a day :)
  8. Major progress was made, the arm and bucket have now proper range of movement. Now I need to rebuild that mess into proper arm and Z-linkage:
  9. Sariel discovered it after my hint ;)
  10. They require a little change of habits, but are much easier to integrate with model's frame. They basically become part of the frame, not an addition to it like old PFs. RC4WD Mil Spec ZXL: https://store.rc4wd.com/MIL-SPEC-ZXL-19-Tires_p_1957.html
  11. I have started making a wheel loader with using new electric parts from 42099 (two L motors, two XL motors and a HUB). The goal is to recreate a Liebherr L580 loader: So far I have a chassis that can drive around and currently I am struggling with arm movement.
  12. I have finally managed to add stickers and some green load to my copies of Eric Trax's New Holland TM140 tractor and Krampe trailer. More pictures: https://bricksafe.com/pages/M_longer/misc/nh140
  13. 42099 with and without stickers: https://www.facebook.com/m1longer/posts/2498443173734374
  14. I have made a 282 truck in a minifig scale few years ago :) http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=520886
  15. And again, price rised. For Poland cost of this set is 850PLN, for Germany 180€. The problem is that 850 divided to 180 does not match the actual exchange rate; 1€ is worth 4,35PLN, and price set by LEGO uses 4,72 rate :(
  16. I have started showing my old models on my Instagram account and people started asking about instructions for them. So here's the first one, including a revamped model from 2009: It all began in 2009 with this small model: It was inspired by forwarders of this type: Today, a ten years after its reveal, new version was created, with lots of playable features missing in the original build. The crane arm and claw works, and that's a major change from mk1, because it was not designed to do so. First version had solid axle, mk2 comes with pendular suspension on all wheels: The cab still can fit a minfig (this one was taken from 60181): The instructions mentioned above can be obtained trough Sellfy & Rebrickable: https://sellfy.com/p/t7aa91/ https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-29174/M_longer/forwarder/#comments Sample pages: Comparison with 60181: Another revamped model will be revealed soon :)
  17. I have received 60185 set for my birthday (really nice set): I have built the main model, looked at it for a while and decided to rebuild into something else. As a result, a small loader was made: The bucket can be elevated and tilted: In order to place minifig inside the cab, whole upper structure has to be taken off. Leftover parts: Model comes with instructions, which can obtained for free here: https://sellfy.com/p/qsfssl/ https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-28962/M_longer/60185-skid-steer-loader/ Sample page from instructions: Size comparison:
  18. I have just turned 30 years old! Celebrate with me and get 30% discount on all my instructions, today and tomorrow: Go to my Sellfy Store: https://sellfy.com/m1longer Or to Rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/users/M_longer/mocs/
  19. So there will be instructions for 3rd Granite, in the same scale and colour? https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-22014/M_longer/42078-alternate-mack-granite-snow-plow/
  20. I feel some vibes from @grohl's Granite too:
  21. LTR's chassis (well, tracks actually) can be widened, have you considered that function? :)
