  1. Agreed, too. Builder could change Description and update the building status.
  2. CBR125 is a great learner bike. it is very narrow, so I didn't have that secured feeling couple times when I rode it. Have fun with it!
  3. Why don't you try to make your own design? It could result in even better mechanical cylinder than anything existing. I made my own for my machine, and I am very satisfied. If you don't want to bother, you could use swissbager mechanical cylinder, they are wide, but they work.
  4. Nothing seems to work because you haven't put enough effort in it at the first phase of the design process. That is essential on these big projects, and one of the reason why they can be built for months.
  5. Ok I cant say you to continue work on it, or disband it, but I can give you some advices,comparing your moc to my big JCB excavator. First of all as I told you a while ago, pneumatic cylinders wont work very well for such a big MOC - use brick built cylinders or LAs Slewing is to fast, reduce it a little bit, it will result in less swinging of the arm. Drive has to be tested in advance, in a very start of the building by putting some weight (2-3 kg) on undercarriage...books are good. It is best to use XLs directly on sprocket wheels in reduction 5 to 1. Sagging of the upper part is the result of not having some kind of support - make roller bearings around the turntable. Or at least just ring of tiles and one wheel at the point where the sagging is greatest.
  6. I like when someone is building a mobile crane! Nice start, it is in scale as the one I am working on. My only criticism is the size of the tires, Liebherr LTM on 19studs wide chassis should have bigger tires, but these looks good, too! Good luck with this one!
  7. Small but functional and cute. Very well design!
  8. I think this is your best tank ever. Aesthetic and functionality are awesome. I would like to see it without a single stud visible, it may look even more real, but that is just me. Suspension works great, and even it is a little bit unconventional, regarding twisting parts, I think it is very well done! Tracks...they work, but I feel there could be room for improvement, but as you said, this tank is warming up for your next Korean tank. Additional functions are fantastic. Overall, clearly your best tank so far.
  9. Congratulations to all! Especially to Zblj and Mahjga. I would like to see there Da Vinci Flyer, too!
  10. Really unique creation. Details and organic shape is what I like the best. Really nice! I just feel that the wings where the rotors are attached are a little bit weak and thin, but I like how the they look. Awesome MOC!
  11. That head is perfect! Claws are great, too.
  12. Welcome. Have fun!
  13. Welcome! Very creative avatar!
  14. Welcome to the forums!
  15. Best forum ever!
  16. His site was and still is a great help for all of us. Sad news.
  17. The second one will work with less RPMs, of course. Here are some references: http://technicbricks.blogspot.com/2010/03/lego-education-renewable-energy-set.html http://technicbricks.blogspot.com/2009/12/news-from-lego-education-for-2010.html http://technicbricks.blogspot.com/2009/12/lego-education-2010-update.html
  18. My bike is ready for a winter hibernation But, it was a great summer!
  19. New prgress on your crane I don't think this would work well when some weight is on the turntable, IF that 24t gear is used for a powering the whole turntable. I mean, the axle on that gear will twist itself, right?
  20. 17 or so years ago I was on a National TV station, in a kids show, called ZVRK. I was presenting my LEGO collection and of course, my brand new, mighty Technic set 8868- Claw rig. Back then LEGO was not very spread in my country, and probably I was the first person here to be lucky to have one of the best Technic sets ever made. I was lucky I had my uncle in Germany, who knew about my LEGO passion, and my Father, investing lots of hard earned money for me. Back than it was very unstable period here...sadly, war was about to begin. The film crew of 3 guys came to my apartment, and we were start preparing in my room, my parent were in the kitchen talking with the TV guy, who did not enter my room. Reflectors, giant camera, microphone, cables...it was scary. When all the stage was set, the guy with the microphone, without any intro, started interviewing my about LEGO. Since I was 9 or 10 at the time, it took me about 10 seconds just to start speaking. After 10 minutes of interviewing, they told me to start playing with the truck! I pushed it around slowly to show cylinders and fan moving, steered a wheels a bit, and at the end, I was proudly operating the claw via pneumatics. They film it all and gone, informing that I will receive VHS with all the scenes, and one edited. The show was held in a 7 days, and I was a star in my neighborhood. People here back than knew a little bit about LEGO, but never saw such big and functional set as 8868. That set and that show was very inspiring for me and it helped me to be occupied with LEGO today. Thanks a lot, Dad!
  21. Yeah, TT with great look, awesome combination!
  22. Nice MOC. I like studded body, but this studlees cabin is very good. Functions are also very nice, overall great model in smaller scale!
  23. Awesome model. But IMO his Yellow Dump Truck is still his best creation, both technically and aesthetically.
  24. Nice! I like LAs very much, but it is always great to see pneumatic version, too! Swinging arm does not have a very large swing angle, right?
