Not really, if it is a C model or a MOC should make no difference. The OP asked a question which was answered. -

Adding string to a non string set would not make it a C model but a MOC :) -
Unimog Attachment - Loading Conveyor Back in early March I shared my Unimog loading conveyor attachment. I have recently spent some time making some changes to this attachment, the loading area now has a cage around it to allow more parts to be stacked up for loading, new photos and a video are below. http://paulstechnic.blogspot.com.au/2016/03/unimog-attachment-loading-conveyor.html

Great work with this :) -
Unimog Attachment - Road Roller MK2 I have recently redesigned and rebuilt a road roller attachment for my Unimog U400. This is a redesign and rebuild of what I built a few years ago, it fits in well with the "civil services" theme of some of my other Unimog attachments. While researching this I had the goal of using a LA to raise and lower this, I also wanted it to be much more "professional" looking as far as the design and colours went. Over the past week I have spent some time on this when and as I have been able to, last night I made the final changes and took some photos and a video of it. Features are: - Lift and carry of roller (rear PTO / small LA) - swivel point for steering Video can be seen here: http://paulstechnic.blogspot.com.au/2016/04/unimog-attachment-road-roller-mk2.html

Your LEGO after you die.
Paul B Technic replied to Paul B Technic's topic in General LEGO Discussion
This is spot on, in other hobbies I have heard of people selling items for a fraction of what they are worth after a family member dies. -
I know this is not a "nice" topic to think about for most of us but have you ever given any thought to what you would like to happen to your LEGO after you die? Some people have huge collections which are worth a lot of money.

A couple of years ago I designed and built a pull-along mower attachment for the LEGO Technic Unimog 8110. Recently I have found that somebody has recreated this attachment using LEGO Digital Designer and has made a step by step building guide which can be seen here: http://www.moc-pages.com/moc.php/421074 If anybody knows Ryan and has contact details for him I would love to get in touch with him.

The more I hear about this, the less I think I will be buying it. -

White is the New Red
Paul B Technic replied to Blakbird's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I have seen this myself, with the increase of colours that are in sets it means that my MOC's now can have a wider colour range. -
For the last month or so I have been on the lookout for some shelves to store and display my Unimog and attachments. These needed to be large enough for this to fit but not so large as to take up too much room. Yesterday I called past "The Reject Shop" and found these shelves for $29. They are the right size and fit in my budget, the less I spend on these the more I have to spend on LEGO Technic :) Last night I spent a few minutes putting them together and setting up my Unimog and attachments.

Unimog Attachment - Scissor Lift Over the past couple of weeks I have been designing and building a LEGO Technic scissor lift. This started off as a standalone project which was going to be separate to my Unimog attachments with manual control. After some early design work and overcoming some issues with both the lifting mechanism and control I designed to instead build this as a attachment for the Unimog, mounting it to the rear tray and using the rear PTO to raise and lower this. I have spent around 15 hours over the past couple of weeks undertaking the research, design and construction process. I am very pleased with the end result and this is now my favorite attachment.
