Thats weird! I build almost 95% the same axle to integrate it in my new mobile crane I am working on. Everything is very similar, difference is that i have worm gear powering the axle. I made three of them, each can steer and drive and are pendular suspended. Mine is maybe 2 studs narrower, not quite sure, cant remember at the moment. I am not sure why anybody else did not reply in this topic, it is very nice and functional technical creation, imo. Looking forward to your next creation.

I am with you on this, too. Would like to see more details about our activities here!

Yes, it is camouflage! Nice boat, btw!

7641 City Corner. I like it best!

I have quite a few new sets and never noticed this in my boxes.

Wow, I like the first one soooo much. I will build it from my own parts! Thanks!

Hi and Welcome, magicm! Great Topic! First, I look for the real existing model of what I want to build-mainly construction equipment. Second I scale it down using PDF provided by manufacturer. I try to build everything perfect in scale, usually 1/13 or 1/20. Third in my mind I calculate few days to see is everything possible, even in theory. Fourth I use MlCad to create virtual models. That is because it is easier for me to see completed model in advance, and to see is it really possible create what I want. Fifth if I lack of some parts (usually I do) I try to find them all in ONE Bricklink store, to cut down shipping price. Sixth I enjoy in building the model from MlCad from my computer. That is very hard and long process because CAD only shows rough model, I have to work on numerous mechanisms while I am building. I like that very much and enjoy doing that. My advice to you if you want to build exclusively MOCs, is that do not buy sets, but only Bricklink parts which you will need. That is way cheaper, but more dangerous, you can order parts and almost regularly find out that you miss (very) few important pieces. So (very long) planning is essential, for me. Hope it helped a bit... Happy building!

Don't forget the "7" sticker Car is funny, but ok with that part count. Minifig is great! Nice review!

Minifig is really nice, But the telepathic plane is too simple and too chaotic. I would but set just for minifig! Nice review, Mikey!

This review is one of the best I have ever seen. Lots of great pictures, tidy and informative! Set is excellent, I could not find it here when I was a kid. This review brings it closer to me! Thanks!

It looks like good solution, Carbs! It should function well and look nice, if the model would not be too heavy.

That is very nice review Cam! Do you have problems driving the bike regarding your height? I guess on smaller bikes your knees can bump with your forearms on tight turns?

Looks good. I like the unusual color. I also think like others that inside needs little more details to provide more life! But overall I like it!

It is not problem in XL's torque, but in strength of the gears, also in bracing driven gears together, they want to break away one from another, and in great weight of the cabin, thus great weight is on front (steered) axle. In my 10 Kg truck I used two XLs, and had problems with breaking gears in diff, so hub reduction was needed. Also bracing was issue due to limited space in the chassis. Front axle was built to be strong as hell. At the end everything was fine, truck is on youtube driving well. Sorry for off in your topic, Lasse D!

Beautiful work. Minifigs are great. Excelent

Awesome. Your use of sloped parts is great. I think that you should remove any studs visible, with tiles.

Really ingenious design of the machine. Nice build!

I have seen your introduction at TB. Nice! I wish you success in your work with the modules!

Thats great! Take care of her!

Very nice! It looks very good, it is simple, but instantly recognizable! Good work!

I would also make ground in green!

O yeah, some people would be very happy to see 1x3 tiles...I want them badly!

2x new 8878 rechargeable battery box and 8887 transformer for charging it.

Welcome, Coolcrab! Of course you will have a great time here. MOCs are just waiting to be explored through this site! Enjoy!

Welcome, Dennis! Not unfamiliar in the world of Lego? You are the most popular builder of trucks and construction equipment. I enjoy reading your website, especially first time, when I saw Liebherr LG crane and Liebherr Tracked Excavator. Those two machines were simple ingenious... Your website was responsible for getting me back to the Lego world! My PF motorized 1/13 Scania Crane was purely inspired by your work. Thank you for that.
