I have finally found an image of the sweeper that I saw and as you can see it is smaller than the reference one and my one is more to the scale of the one below http://www.westlothi...92482/cleansing

Thanks it is one of the smallest MOC's I have done, the reason behind it is that I was driving along the road on Tuesday and passed a couple of street sweepers driving the opposite way and noticed that none of them had the thing that is on the front of Lego's Sweepers so I rebuilt it to look the same as the ones that my local council use however I could not do it in the white that West Lothian Council use as the roof piece dose not come in white so I changed it to yellow

V-LI-06D Here is my latest creation It is a mini street sweeper that is used in the UK to clean paths and is also used in the main roads On either side there are holders for a shovel and a brush And the side and the rear And here is an image of a real one C's and C's welcome

more out of curiosity than anythting

could we add a poll to see whether people agree or disagree with TLG's desision

well here is the reply I got from the Scotland branch of Velux

+1 to rakky for a very pleasant trade Thanks

I realised that after and I have now updated that post

Mine is final as well http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=67692

That is why I said it would have to be modified such as the collar being removed, then the rear would be smootheed down to just have a plain back. Then remove the single stud on the front and cut a small triangle out from it for Stark's chest Plate then paint it. Also I do not think the shoulder pads are to big for Iron Man as every photo I have seen from the Avengers movie they do look quite large http://www.superrobotmayhem.com/comic-book-movies/avengers/iron-man-mark-7/

or why not put a modified space marine armour on him of course you would need to paint it but I think it works quite well

both the bricks say pat pend, the standard orientation one has p15 and the sideways brick has 53 and does have a different feel to it and neither of them have the support bars also the sideways brick has less clutch power than the rest of my 2x4s

hi guys I have received a pile of lego from a mate of mine and I found a very unusual brick in the pile, now I know it is a white 2x4 but what is odd about it is the orientation of the lego printing on the brick the one on the right is a standard brick the one on the left is the odd brick do you know when this was made or why the printing is the wrong orientation

I have S7 DareDevil S7 Aztec Warrior I would like S7 Bagpiper S7 Hippie

I have tried Minddroid but felt there are better ones avalible

@ efferman it is not meant to be fast, every boat I design for luxury I call it a Speeder because I like the name @ zaiocrit I use NXT-Remote which allows me to create independent screens because the props that I use only point one way so I had to control with reversed controls such as to go forward I had to put motor B full forward and motor C full reverse The NXT does not use WiFi but it does have a Bluetooth antenna

ah now I see what I done wrong what do you guys think of the videos

thanks for that, I could not work out how to get them posted. could you tell me how you posted them so I can add the 3rd video About the videos, 1 and 2 were shot by me while standing in the water with my mate Grant controlling the Tri-Speeder from the bank which is why you can here me shouting directions to him. with the 3rd video he had control of the camera while I was in the water controlling the vessel

here is a few videos of Tri-Speeder in the water, also for the videos I decided to remove the weights so the videos you see are the Tri-Speeder built just out of lego sorry mods but cant find out how to add the youtube box for my videos

yes you are right about the sinking but it would happen very slowly, unfortunately due to the design of the motors I cannot move them forward as the props would then hit off of the hulls. For a lego weight in the hulls I tried but none of the peices I had would fit and ones that did fit would not provide enough weight to keep the hulls down

I have had the vessel in the water and it seems to be ok, If I do have any issues with the motors I will just replace them as it works so well in the bath

I ditched the cling film but the lead shot, I asked Siegfried and he said since it could not be seen and is not a major part of the build it is suitable. I am hoping to get it out on the water tommorow depending on the weather if it is sunny I will be taking it out on the reservoir and will take a video of it edit: I just realised that I took out the lead to glue it together this morning so the vessel in the pics has only lego apart from the kitchen towel to aid with water and to act as a damper, however when I take it out on the water it will have the weights in it

Here is my entry for the TSATS contest It is an NXT powered trimaran. it is driven by two nxt motors connected with gearing to the propellers. is is controlled from an app on my andriod phone. the catermaran hulls have 5grams of lead shot in the front of them while the main hull has two of the old lego weigths and the front. the colour sensor is used to give me an indication of wether the nxt is on or not

I am currently working on a nxt lego controlled boat but there are a couple of things that I have added to help with the floating which are 5grams of lead shot in each of the hulls, hot melt to seal up the hulls and some cling film to cover the nxt to keep it watertight. Also I am using an android app to control the vessel so would I still be eligible to take part in the contest

@ The Blue Brick Because I use decals and do not have an Alps printer I could not do the text in white so got it so it is near white so it is impossible to get it white
