  1. I was expecting a cart on 94mm wheels. It looks nice, but it is way to small for being alternative model for 42082, and use wheels which do not come in that set ;)
  2. It is fast. Will it have enough torque to pull that trailer with additional load? I was going to use 2 XL motors with two speed transmission for similiar purpose.
  3. There are only few pictures of it, because it was never produced. I believe that on all those pictures is the same machine.
  4. Conisder using a direct shaft from XL motor to the fake engine, without passing the drive trough gearbox, pistons will move at the same speed on any gear.
  5. After looking at problems that people have with sets that have more than one differential (42070, 42082 etc). I'd say that every set that could have wheels turning in opposite directions, if you don't pay attention to differential setup.
  6. Actually, at first it was a Tamrock TORO 60, after that Sandvik bought Tamrock, and eventually it was branded as Sandvik TH660 :) It was a design failure, and like Atlas Copco Minetruck MT85 was abandoned. Both companies stick to typical, two axles trucks with articulated frame. I was going to build one years ago, with brick built dump bed. At least now I see that it could be made much easier, with panels. Great job! :)
  7. Golden Shovel reward incoming! It may be usefull, because I had an oportunity to take some pictures of my Volvo in a gravel pit :)
  8. Really interesting, I am looking forward for more pictures and progress on this mechanisms, because I had similiar problems years ago and maybe thanks to you I will find a solution :)
  9. It is a MOD, not a C model, because you have added small turntable, which does not come with this set.
  10. Or a turntable(s). It seems that I have achieved things you are looking for with my 42054 Wheel Loader:
  11. You have noticed that yout front axles shakes when the drive is on? The universal joints are placed incorrectly and could be damaged. Basically whole front drive should be rebuilt. Use CV joints for the wheel hubs and place universal joints in-line with mounting points of suspension arms.
  12. Looks nice. Check availability of some green parts, for example 1x6 tiles you are using are very, very rare.
  13. Which come in 42095: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=42529
  14. Those weird angles in chassis will cause problems. Friction and similiar things will appear, have you tried straight frame, like this one?
  15. What do you mean by "old one"? There are several different configurations for different needs. Here you can test how they work :) https://www.claas.pl/produkty/ladowarki-kolowe/torion-1914-1177/uklad-zaladunku?fbclid=IwAR1QKGJv9nr89evst7ho4kZpkOlyYWni1oYYnf0fI87AWDi3OgRCreRr-N4
  16. Your pulley frame has the exact size, so why not? :)
  17. I am quite busy with Liebherr L580/CLAAS Torion building, and few other smaller things in 1:17 scale. And I am not sure if I have all parts from 8295.
  18. I have hoped that it will go in this direction. Ekhm; And here-we-go! 42054 CLAAS Xerion, a rigid chassis with four wheel steering: And a wheel loader, made from this set (coincidence; by me), with articulated chassis: I know, I know, it does come with turntables, which were not present in 8295. So let's go for this one: Example number two: 42081 Volvo Zeux, an four wheel steering, almost (it can be elevated) rigid chassis; And a Log Loader, made also by me, with articulated steering: And that's why I think that 8295 could be rebuilt into articulated model.
  19. Except that clawy thing on front and colour? Not. Even the chassis is different, Liebherr has articulated one, while that B model has 4 wheel steering.
  20. Eh, it seems that using irony here is not a good idea. It is a C model, which means that no additional parts should be used.
