  1. Thanks for the replies. I have taken the past six weeks off but will be back building shortly. I have some ideas for some future small scale builds.
  2. I have recently designed and built a MOC, using the parts from LEGO Technic set 42102, this is a front mount ride on mower. This features: HOG steering Blades connected to the wheels so they turn as it is pushed around. Front deck lifting via the red levers, this also stops the blades from turning. It the same size and scale as the 42102 A model.
  3. Off Road Multifunction Truck (ORMFT) - Towing Arm I have recently designed and built an Off Road Multifunction Truck (ORMFT), the idea behind this is to use this as a base for designing and building various attachments. This attachment is a towing arm, this features: - Arm raising and lowering via the yellow knob. - Winch winding in and out via the black gear, this also has a lock to keep the winch line in place. This mounts to the truck body via two pins on the rear and two axles on the front, these same mounting points will be used for future attachments.
  4. Off Road Multifunction Truck (ORMFT) - Field Plough I have recently designed and built an Off Road Multifunction Truck (ORMFT), the idea behind this is to use this as a base for designing and building various attachments. This attachment is a field plough, this features: - Plough raising and lowering via the yellow knob. This mounts to the truck body via two pins on the rear and two axles on the front, these same mounting points will be used for future attachments.
  5. Wow, you are quick off the mark. Well done, an excellent little model.
  6. I have recently designed and built an Off Road Multifunction Truck (ORMFT), the idea behind this is to use this as a base for designing and building various attachments. My first attachment is a cherry picker, this features: - Bucket raising and lowering via one of the yellow knobs. - Moving the turn table, via the other yellow knob. This mounts to the truck body via two pins on the rear and two axles on the front, these same mounting points will be used for future attachments. Off Road Multifunction Truck (ORMFT) - Grader Blade I have recently designed and built an Off Road Multifunction Truck (ORMFT), the idea behind this is to use this as a base for designing and building various attachments. This attachment is a grader blade, this features: - Blade raising and lowering via the yellow knob. This mounts to the truck body via two pins on the rear and two axles on the front, these same mounting points will be used for future attachments.
  7. I am not a car guy but I do like this one.

  9. I was not but I might have a try and see if I can work out the best way to do it.
  10. Thanks. For me, this makes it much more playable.
  11. I got in trouble a few years ago for too many / too large images. Have the rules changed?
  12. I have recently been working on designing and building an off road truck, which is to be used as the base for adding different attachments and features. This is based on a model which I found on rebrickable, this has been modified: - Added HOG steering. - Switched to right hand drive. - Modified and extended the rear, this is to allow me to have the room to add various attachments. - Improved the mounting of the front mudguards.

  13. I have recently designed and built a MOC, using the parts from LEGO Technic set 42133. This features: HOG steering Arm lifting It the same size and scale as the 42133 A model.
  14. Recently I have picked up a couple more copies of LEGO Technic set 42133, these were purchased to allow me to try building a few of the C models that have instructions published online. I have recently completed building the first of these which is a forklift. This features: - HOG steering - Lifting forks After building this, I was not 100% happy with the way the forks worked, so I moved the connection point by one and this now allows them to tilt as they are raised. Overall this is a fun build and the functionality of this is good for such a small set. Not a lot of parts are left over, so it makes good use of the parts available from this set.

  15. I have recently built LEGO Technic set 42121 A model. After building this, I was not 100% happy with the bucket, so I have replaced this with a grabber claw. This uses the same control as the original bucket attachment. Photos and Video: https://tangerstechnicblog.blogspot.com/2022/12/lego-technic-42121-mod-grabber-claw.html
  16. Update 23/12/2022. Today I have spent some time working on this, I have removed the rear section and have redesigned this to extend the length. I have added some mounting points for some of the attachments I am planning on building.
