M_longer Posted February 25, 2015 Author Posted February 25, 2015 But are you still planning on making them? Would hate the fact to not be able to build it. Yes, but I can't say when. I have a lot things to do lately and playing with bricks is not one of them :( Quote
Dafgek81 Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Thats fine with me, sorry to bother you with my impatience, but I was affaid you wheren't going to make any at all. Quote
M_longer Posted November 4, 2015 Author Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) I'd like to inform everyone who asked me about it, that instructions for this loader are finally available at MOCPlans.com :) http://mocplans.com/...end-loader.html Those great renders were made by Blakbird. Thank you very much! :) Parts list can be found at Rebrickable: http://rebrickable.com/mocs/M_longer/volvo-l250g-wheel-loader Example pages: Higher resolution pics can be found at my Bricksafe gallery: http://bricksafe.com...ger/volvo-l250g I have also started a blog, to have everything related to my MOCs in one place: http://m-longer.blogspot.com/ Edited November 4, 2015 by M_longer Quote
Rijkvv Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Thanks in advance M_longer! I'm looking forward to purchase these instructions but somehow I can't login at Mocplans at the moment. Quote
Dafgek81 Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Thank You, hope to buy them in the future. Still struggling to get the money for parts from my Actros. Quote
Dafgek81 Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Hello Marek, Checked out the partslists on both Rebrickable and Bricksafe. Saw that the have different parts, which one is correct? Quote
M_longer Posted November 5, 2015 Author Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) Hello Marek, Checked out the partslists on both Rebrickable and Bricksafe. Saw that the have different parts, which one is correct? Let me guess, black and yellow hoses? Bricksafe shows exactly what has been used in the model (hoses in needed length, it is just screenshot from the parts inventory generated in LPub), and Rebrickable shows parts that are available on the market (for example yellow 6L hose does not exist in any set, 1L and 2L in black either) and they had to be cut.

Dafgek81 Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Motors and a remote control. At least that is what I was missing. Quote
M_longer Posted November 5, 2015 Author Posted November 5, 2015 Motors and a remote control. At least that is what I was missing. OK, you have found an error on the parts list. (but motors were present). IR Receiver was missing and few other parts like 1x1 black tile and 2x2 round brick (no idea why, it happened for the first time, and parts list on Rebrickable is made strictly from the same file as instructions). Probably Rebrickable ignored these parts on importing the ldr file. I am very sorry for those errors, It happened for the first time, last time when I was using Rebrickable import option all elements were imported properly. I assume that parts that had different molds were ignored, and it seems that other missing pieces were using different numbers in the file. I have checked it piece by piece and now this inventory is 100% accurate: http://rebrickable.c...0g-wheel-loader Remote control is not present in the instructions, so it is not on the picture. But is needed to use this model, so I have added it to the Rebrickable parts list. Thank you for noticing that, I will remember to double check the Rebrickable parts list with raw .ldr file in the future. Quote
Dafgek81 Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Your welcome, glad I could help. Love the loader, Will try to build it in the furure. Quote
2LegoOrNot2Lego... Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 This is such an amazing build and great you have instructions for it available :thumbup: Not sure yet, but maybe I'll build it someday... Would be my first build not by myself... Quote
Rijkvv Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 In the pictures the Volvo uses the yellow 62.4x20 wheel rims, while in the renders and instruction it doesn't. Any reason for this? Thanks anyway, yet again high quality instructions of a high quality creation. Quote
M_longer Posted November 7, 2015 Author Posted November 7, 2015 Any reason for this? Costs and parts availability. Yellow 62.4 wheels are rare these days. There are only 11 shops on BL that have at least four. It is much easier to buy wheels from 42030. I'm glad that you like those instructions :) Quote
Dafgek81 Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Don't want to be picky, but...... The L-motors are missing in the partslist on Rebrickable. Quote
Rijkvv Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Yellow 62.4 wheels are rare these days. There are only 11 shops on BL that have at least four. Whoops, that's bad news. I need even more for my own project, I might cancel that for now. Quote
M_longer Posted November 7, 2015 Author Posted November 7, 2015 Don't want to be picky, but...... The L-motors are missing in the partslist on Rebrickable. They are present, but have veeery small picture with straight cable. They are next to 1x2 LBG plate(s). Whoops, that's bad news. I need even more for my own project, I might cancel that for now. I had hope that new Mining Loader set (that uses 62.4 wheels) will have them in yellow, but it seems (from preliminary pictures) that it will be using standard Light Bluish Grey wheels :( Quote
Dafgek81 Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 How much off the parts for this loader can I get out off 42030? And if I would find a second hand 42009. Would that help or not? Quote
Theo van Vroenhoven Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 How much off the parts for this loader can I get out off 42030? And if I would find a second hand 42009. Would that help or not? 33%, see http://www.rebrickable.com/compare/MOC-3799/42030-1 Quote
M_longer Posted April 22, 2019 Author Posted April 22, 2019 Golden Shovel reward incoming! It may be usefull, because I had an oportunity to take some pictures of my Volvo in a gravel pit :) Quote
