  1. That is another way,if you do that I would use a AAA battery or a rechargeable one.
  2. If you want to power tracks through a turntable that rotates,you will need to use driving rings like in the 8043 and the Zorex.
  3. If you run cables through the turntable the wires will twist (hence lego limits the turntable that can twist cables by using a stop).
  4. I think this is probably the best way in my opinion,then anybody that is wiling to support Eurobricks can choose how much they can donate.
  5. I think he is trying to pass three functions through the turntable and not two. In order to make this possible you would need to modify the whole machine,at which point you are as well building a excavator from scratch to accommodate the mechanism required.
  6. A good review again Jim,I look forward to getting this set.
  7. Nice review Jim,the new worm gear and the new dog bone piece looks very useful.
  8. What about just using a PF standard motor and a gear rack?
  9. It is a shame that lego did not use a clutch gear before going to small LA which lifts the cockpit. I wounder if the real plane cockpits shake up and down like what was shown in the video?
  10. That is why I said it.....sorry could not resist....
  11. It really depends on what you want to build and what parts you know you are missing,looking at a particular sets part on bricklink is a good idea to find what parts are going to be of use.
  12. The new 2014 lego technic models will be on sale on boxing day (Glasgow lego store)....so the man says.
  13. I am sure I could help do that....cough legolijntje also wants to help cough...
  14. I would defiantly take part,to make this work and to make it more assessable I think it would be a good idea if you designed a chassis in lego cad.Then have rough templates that would fit to the main module that showed the builder size restraints for the other parts of the car.
  15. I think he has made instrutions for most of his trucks.
  16. Ah thanks I thought it was going to be something like that...
  17. Just imagine a machine that could sort out axles,pins,bushes and small liftarms..... I like the pneumatic one the best,can you explain a bit more about how the first sorter works? In all honesty that is quite a poor reply.... You don't have to post a reply to every topic if you don't have something constructive to say.
  18. Try this one There is a parts call out error on page 69 step 2 there should be another towball pin listed in the BOM. Also the red 2 axle should be moved from step 4 to step 3 on page 68,the same apply's to page 67. There needs to be some assembly arrows for the plotter table base,I did add some in my last update.
  19. Hello,are you trying to pass three functions through the turntable? Or are you trying to upgrade the M motors to L motors?
  20. Yet another crane,what is it with the sudden influx of cranes? It looks great so far,I would like to see a video of the legs.
  21. Grohl made the small helicopter,I will buy it since he made it...
  22. What about making a alternative for the 42009,I have a nice alternative in mind that would be very popular....
  23. Yeb his name is Philo, he is a member here. I just call him "the made french man" don't ask me why. His site
