Paul B Technic

That looks great :)

Great to see the progress on this one.

Some thoughts on a C Model for it: https://paulbtechnic.blogspot.com/2025/06/mini-review-lego-technic-42044-c-model.html

It is always sad when we lose someone, especially when it is so sudden.

That is really coming along well, it is giving me some ideas for a MOC of my own.

Nice change :)

This is very cool, love the cat in the background.

Well done for explaining this so well.

LEGO Technic Off Road Utility Truck (ORUT) MK2 - Rear Mount Lifting Work Platform This is a new attachment for my LEGO Technic Off Road Utility Truck (ORUT) MK2, Rear Mount Lifting Work Platform. This is mounted to the rear of the tray and uses my standard rear mounting / lifting setup. This has two features, the arm has a two stage lift, firstly the knob on the side of the arm provides the first stage of the lift, secondarily the rear small LA is used for the main arm raising function.

I have had some issues with the video hosting, so I have moved all of these to YouTube now - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZoPGFrDsl87NyQQJ6GhKpA

Great to see the mods and improvements.

That looks very cool, the colour works really well.

Very interesting idea to drive the pump off the tracks, I am keen to see what you come up with.

Nice work so far and this is a great idea.

This is great, such a high level of detail.

You had me going, until the icon… End of the day, TLG will design and sell what they want, people will buy what they want. I hope this is not an example of what we can expect as far as set features and prices going forward.

That is looking even better now.

The 8110 Unimog was basically half the price of this and while it only had 1 motor, it “ made sense” in that set, one motor in this, no RC and the price makes no sense for this set.

I guess just cost, 8043 had 4 motors.

I have just watched the video and don't really understand the issue?

That is amazing, a very "interesting" idea.

Amazing work.

Interesting topic. I think some brands get a bit “worked up” about this sort of thing. On the topic of paid v free, I have used a lot of both types, I am not keen on the “higher cost” ones, unless it is for something very special.

That is looking good.
