  1. Srecan Rodjendan!
  2. You bought 24x43 tires? Costly... Now it looks much better. Also, you have added a little bit more space between last two axles. The cab looks very nice and smooth. I guess you are going to add some parts at the front, lights, grill, like on pictures on first page?
  3. Awesome details. Chrome is excellent as always. This truck is like an American Chopper bike...you can always find something new each time you look at it.
  4. Some will hate me for posting this link, but maybe it would provide progress with hydraulics:
  5. Width of your truck (body) is 18 studs wide, right? 18 studs = 14.4cm 14.4cm x 12.5 = 180cm Width of the real truck (body) is just 180cm wide?
  6. Your best creation so far. Look and functions well mixed together. I have been following this build on a Facebook, and I know from my own experience how hard building this complex model can be. Congratulations! You wrote in the description that the scale of the model is 1:12.5 Is something wrong with that?
  7. Great! Congratulations!
  8. Thats very similar with my beginning here!
  9. Welcome to the forums.
  10. Welcome to the forums!
  11. Too bad no one managed to take a look or shot underneath the Unimog, or at least to make a shot from the ground, to be able to see if it is 4x4... I guess we have to be grateful for the pictures we have now.
  12. 4x4 looks better, imo. 6x6 would be more interesting to make, regarding chassis. I like this 6x6: PICTURE
  13. Cool and tiny. You should try to put small pneumatic crane behind the cab.
  14. grindinggears, you should be proud of each and every one of your creation, no matter how good or bad it is. At the end every creation is sum of various experiences. Model is good, there is always ways to make it better, of course, but with three motors, I think it is pretty good!
  15. Yes DLuders, that is the way I did it, just rotate the axle 8. 62.4 tire should be lined with 94.8 tire, than it has the best friction. I am working on a even simpler solution, with better overall look and parts usage. Will post it.
  16. Squeeze 62.4 tire with wheel in a side of the 94.8 tire, on the other side put 8x8 dish. Put axle 8 with stop through dish and wheel, so the "stop" part of the axle is on the dish. Squish parts to make tire thin, and put two Wedge Belt Wheels on the axle on the side where the 62.4 wheel is. Then use two Wedge Belt Wheels to act like a nuts to secure the wheel from sliding of the axle. HERE is the picture where it can be seen how it looks like, but mine sloution is without the chains.
  17. Welcome, Martin. Enjoy the Technic forum!
  18. Hope everything will be fine! Good luck.
  19. Washing hands, at least for me, before building, is a some kind of first step in a building ritual. Even if I washed hands 5 minutes ago. That first step means building can start.
  20. First, look closely at the pictures in the link, thats how 8x8 dish and 62.4 tire should be fixed on the 94.8... When you put these parts together, use long axle, lets say axle 8 with stop to connect 62.4 and dish and push those two parts toward each other until you have thin 94.8 tire. Than use pulley wheel on the axle close to dish, to prevent 8x8 dish from sliding of the setup. The overall diameter wont be bigger (maybe 3mm), but width of the tire has significantly decreased. Note that I am not using chains as Jerrec did.
  21. It can be done using alternative parts. I used something similar as Jerrec on his tractor, but i used just 62.4x20 tire and rim, 8x8 dish, and axle with pulley wheels to block sliding the 62.4 tire off big 94.8 tire. That way the tire has 98mm diameter, and width of 38mm.
  22. But it can be used for non steered axles. I am going to use this solution for pneumatic backhoe. I am trying to recreate another solution for this kind of squished tire. Will post it here if I succeed.
  23. When I saw this on BS yesterday, I was happy because it looks like a cheaper version of efferman's solution (94.8 tires on the 8448 rims). I will use this for sure.
  24. This is really awesome. Details are fantastic. Svaka cast!
