efferman Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) My entry for the crane contest will be a Kenworth K100 with X outriggers in 16studs width scale. I doesnt want make a scale model of an existing crane so you and me will be maybe surprised. 100_1584 by Michael Wirth, auf Flickr Edited April 15, 2017 by efferman Quote
zweihander Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 I like the look of those outriggers. I've always liked your builds, I'm curious about this one. Quote
Kiwi_Builder Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Sounds interesting mate, always happy to watch a K-wocka grow into reality Quote
2LegoOrNot2Lego... Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 You always start of impressively!!! That is so really you, again this will be another mind blowing model!!! Thanks for you input... Quote
efferman Posted October 8, 2015 Author Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) Thank you guys some progress with the outrigger gearbox 100_1585 by Michael Wirth, auf Flickr 100_1586 by Michael Wirth, auf Flickr edit: Edited October 8, 2015 by efferman Quote
muffinbrick Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Hmm, looks very clean, Im looking forward for the rest. Nice work Quote
kisper Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Always a fan :) Can't wait for the final product ! Quote
Lakop Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Your outrigger set up is great. That is the hardest thing for me at the moment but hoping to find a solution, I prefer pneumatics for outriggers myself. I look forward to the completed model. H Quote
Imanol BB Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Seems very good and strong so far, it reminds me the 8292 truck for some reason, maybe the scale but this one seems that will be bigger; looking forward for more pics and again, nice work. Quote
jono rocky Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 A Kenworth and a crane, interesting combination. Great work on the outriggers, should be awesome as always. Quote
Kman860 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 This one looks very promising and interesting Quote
TheItalianBrick Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 this will get my vote for sure! Good start Effe!! Keep us updated!! Quote
Kristof Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 This is turning out very nice! Looking forward to see more updates :) Quote
efferman Posted October 9, 2015 Author Posted October 9, 2015 Thanks guys The Rear axles are prototypical done. Changes on this are highly possible 100_1590 by Michael Wirth, auf Flickr 100_1591 by Michael Wirth, auf Flickr Quote
Zerobricks Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 So many Mini LAs! As others said its very clean and good looking. Why did you tie some U joints? Quote
efferman Posted October 9, 2015 Author Posted October 9, 2015 The U joints are broken and in this way i can use them Quote
Lucio Switch Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 The premises are really good! Very compact and clean design! I'm very curious to see what will come out! Quote
Rishab N Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 This is looking like a really good start. The outriggers look very nice Quote
2LegoOrNot2Lego... Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Very nice, this is going to be one amazing crane truck. Yes there are indeed enough mini LA's, why not... Nice to see that for example the steered rear axle pops up again. Reusing ideas is just a great thing, that is how we evolve... Great!!! Quote
doug72 Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) The U joints are broken and in this way i can use them I have used small"o" rings with success on broken UJ,s "O"ring size:- - 1mm x 8mm o.d. x 4mm i.d Edited October 10, 2015 by Doug72 Quote
efferman Posted October 10, 2015 Author Posted October 10, 2015 Looks like a good idea with these rubber rings What do you think about this front? 100_1593 by Michael Wirth, auf Flickr Quote
Milan Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Perfect match to the back section of the truck. Doors wont be openable? Can you post a front view of the cabin? I am thinking, how it would look if you replace red1x2 thin liftarm above the headlights with the white ones. Quote
Zerobricks Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Thats foxy! Nice use of studded details, looks just like from the movie! Quote
efferman Posted October 10, 2015 Author Posted October 10, 2015 Actually iam mostly on the shape, on the second revision openable doors will come. Quote
Imanol BB Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 very nice, the cabin looks like optimus prime in tranformers 4, i like it. Quote
