List (with links) of all the competitors and their MOCs would also be nice and useful.

Not sure about that, PF cables can connect at only one position. JM, maybe to add one line of gears, on one side 16t + 16t to one motor, and 8t+ 8t+ 8t to another motor.

Or he can just guide wires through the turntable and never rotate superstructure full circle more than few times in same direction. I did that on few excavators.

Or on the turntable teeth.

If you don't want to have glass, then use flexible tubes, they are great for curved cabins. I used them for my JCB, here. If you want glass on the cab, then SNOT building is a must, and studs facing forward.

Superb review!

You need to place your entry in pinned entry topic to be legit. Cool crane!

Terminator 5 Workout I LOVE Terminator movies, especially first and second one. I also LOVE to go to the Gym... So, my theme for the triple contest is Terminator's physical preparations for highly anticipated new movie, Terminator 5, staring Arnold Schwarzenegger. This preparations consist of series of exercises performed in his custom Gym. We will see him doing 8 most important exercises. As you know, in every Terminator movie our T-800 took significant damage, and in my entry i have portrayed him as he has lost nearly all of his skin and flesh, leaving his endosceleton mostly naked, with all motors, cylinders and wires visible, also, his legs were damaged many times, and are now replaced with superior Skynet-edition all-terrain tracks. MODELS: 1. T-800 Main model. 495 parts With chromed teeth and famous cigar, powered by 7.2V power plant core and heavy duty rams fed by 7 motors, this aged actor and star is capable of performing various exercises, with exercise machines, barbells and dumbbells, as well as just stretching before and after training. It has 7 motors, fake and real pneumatic cylinders and actuators, 4 receivers and 6 turntables. Main section is 2-part frame built to be simple and strong. Every exercise shown in the video is done without any help. Just his own power and strength. T800 can do: 1. bicep curls w barbell 2. bicep curls w dumbbell 3. front shoulder 4. back shoulder 5. triceps extension w barbell 6. triceps extension w dumbbell 7. pushup 8. pull up 9. biceps chain 10. triceps chain 11. abs hanging 12. back extension 13. pull down cable from seated position (lats) 14. bench press 13. military press 16. inclined bench press 17. declined bench press 18. dead lifts 19. rows 20. treadmill running (driving) ... 2. Pull up machine, with cable rack Workout machine 380 parts Nearly 65cm high, this machine is the main equipment for T800 training routine. It helped him to develop his wide back, biceps and shoulders It consist mainly of large bricks and plates (1x14, 1x16 bricks and technic bricks, 4x12, 4x10 plates) It is strong enough to support his massive size and weight, without any bending or cracking-it was designed to be bend-proof when vertical stress is applied. Painted in yellow/black, with red cushions 3. Bench press (adjustable), with additional weights Workout machine 260 parts with its wide selection of weighs, this machine built most of the t800's chest, triceps and shoulders. It provide firm base for inclined, flat, declined bench press and military press. It can support T-800's weight in different positions and it is extremely stable. Painted in yellow/black, with red cushions Movies: Main movie: Is separated in first part (1 minute) which is interview, and second part (4minutes) with training itself. http://youtu.be/F7WIOq0zJhQ Video of pull ups: http://youtu.be/DSvoRR3816k And Bench pressing: http://youtu.be/U5EQf8tGiGI Thanks for watching!

Nice, I like the treadmill!

Hey, lightintiger, you are still rocking! I I haven't been in Town forum for a long time, and i remember this stile from your works from before :) Keep up, man!

Wow, that lobby is phenomenal!

Great shape, I like curved and unusual MOCs!

Cute, but very serious build at the same time! I like it.

Welcome! Have fun!

8868 is maybe better than 8043, but they are both incredible sets! Great choices! Welcome!

Welcome, most of us here have a similar story :)

Models on the left are from Dirk Klijn, maybe is Hillux his, too.

Nice idea! Good luck!

Nice one. Skidsteer could be 10% larger, but its ok. I would remove middle 16t gear in its tracks. JCB skidsteers have 3 main sprockets and few small rollers.

Glad to clear this up, friend! That is correct, some axles on cranes in crab steering mode do slide a bit (due to inability to achieve full steering angle), usually only the central one(s). But that is not big problem since crab steering is used just for parallel parking. On the LEGO model, I would make that all axles steer equally when performing crab. On my earlier crane with crab mod engaged, there were problems with parallel parking.

They are non-steerable for normal steering modes, and when vehicle speed is under 30 km/h. Otherwise, every LTM has crab steer, even the mighty 11200. From Liebherr LTM11200 brochure:.

9 axle cranes have crab steering. They need it more than smaller crane. There are very few 9 axle cranes existing, most notable LTM 11200 and Demag AC700, both having crab steering.

Hi, Post a picture or two. People will have better advices for you. There are many ways for slowing down gear speed, depending on the parts and available space you have.
