Posted December 16, 20159 yr Hi guys I decided to build something for competition and i'd like to sheare that witch you: I wanted to build something special, something which will be unique and I hope that it wont be too hard for me to build B model witch thease parts:) At the moment forklift have 3 functions -HoG steering -two sections fork raising -tilting fork I'm not delighted witch look of it, but its just a ViP :D Now i'm building digital version of it. Thanks for atention :) Edited December 17, 20159 yr by Krall
December 16, 20159 yr I love to see people building forklifts, this design is a good reason why, love this !
December 16, 20159 yr This looks nice Maybe to my vote list Edit: And Krall you don't like the looks? Oh my, if you better the looks may I give you maximum points 'cause it looks so cool already! Keep up the good work Edited December 16, 20159 yr by MacKaiwer
December 16, 20159 yr Author Thanks guys ! This looks nice Maybe to my vote list Edit: And Krall you don't like the looks? Oh my, if you better the looks may I give you maximum points 'cause it looks so cool already! Keep up the good work I meant the rear part of the model especially the wheel arches, thanks! Again thank you all for coments ! Edited December 16, 20159 yr by Krall
December 17, 20159 yr Author Hi again ! I rebuilded rear part of model and wheel arches . I also made new photos. Now back is higher and thears some place whear I can put fake engine I also made a volume test to make sure that isin't it too big :D You could probably make a race car as B-model. :thumbup: Maybe, but I was thinking about a pick up Tow truck as a B model Thanks for comments !

December 18, 20159 yr Maybe, but I was thinking about a pick up Tow truck as a B model Thanks for comments ! Oh this is funny. I want(ed) to built a forklift for this contest as well (if I get time for it) and had 2 ideas for a B-model. One of them was a tow truck I was already leaning towards using the other idea for the B-model, but no doubt now I guess Anyway, reason I quoted the picture as well, the back looks pretty good now, the cabin still looks a little off to me, maybe make the rear of the roof straight instead of it being at angle? Or make the "front window" shorter so the roof is straight? I think that would make it look even better. Either way, it's a cool model and I look forward to your B-model.

Or make the "front window" shorter so the roof is straight? I think that would make it look even better. Do you mean something like this? I was thinking about that solution but these flexible pieces on front are too long and I'm afraid that they will damage other elements.
December 18, 20159 yr Yeah something like that. Looks pretty good. I wouldn't worry about the rigid hoses damaging other parts, they can bend quite well. I think you can fix them at the sides of the red lift arm below the steering wheel with a #1 connector. Or use a #3 connector instead of the #4 and place it one stud closer to the cabin. With both options the rigid hose will make a little bend, but no stress on other parts I think. Up to you of course. It looks solid already. Just making a suggestion for a tweak. Really cute little model. Edited December 18, 20159 yr by Appie
December 24, 20159 yr Author Update time ! I think tfis is a final version, if I will make any changes they probably will be invisible, I lifted up old cab so it looks more realistick I made a lot of changes inside of vechicle and in lifting section . And hear is a fake engine: I allso made a LDD version. 9Model have 422 bricks) If you will want i will share it, but after competition :D And i took it apart, at this photo u can see all pieces from model. Oh not this photo, this: Now it's time to build a B model...
January 6, 20169 yr Author Hi everyone! I have realised one of my ideas for B model, a Harbor crane: I used about 3/4 of pieces but I don't have anymore to upgrade it. I think that I will keep looking for something other... Edited January 6, 20169 yr by Krall
January 7, 20169 yr Author Well done. Getting a good B model is difficult. This looks great. I can't agree with you, especially that the topic isn't very popular... But anyway thank you for your support:)
January 7, 20169 yr It looks interesting, maybe if you make more detailed pictures of both models plus video of their functions, you will get more replies and support.
January 9, 20169 yr Author I think I found my B model: A little Tow Truck. Functions: HoG steering Winch wheel lift here is a comparison to the 6913.
January 9, 20169 yr Looks cute:) But think I liked the crane better. This model B looks a bit like a forklift that went under a low bridge and didn'tmake it. Really like the A model
January 9, 20169 yr Author Looks cute:) But think I liked the crane better. This model B looks a bit like a forklift that went under a low bridge and didn'tmake it. Really like the A model The crane was underdone it fell realy easily and didn't look good This photo was only one whear it lookt decently. Nice a forklift, but I think, that the forks are too big You mean they are too long?? Edited January 9, 20169 yr by Krall
January 9, 20169 yr I'd like some more pictures of the tow truck, but it looks pretty cool. Cute especially
