Hi all.

I have been designing an excavator using LDD i came across a panel which works perfect for me but i can't find it anywhere in the real world which is an issue as i wil be starting to collect the parts to build my excavator soon.

This is the panel in LDD its called Panel Angular 3x5x3

I could change the design but I like the way it is now so it would be nice to find this panel and of course it needs to be the right colour but one issue at a time.

Technic, Panel Curved 3 x 6 x 3

Available in blue and yellow. I'm not sure why LDD lists it as 3 x 5 x 3.

Wow that was a quick response and it included a link to the part. Luckily it was yellow I was after so it worked out. A big thank you to Buster-Haus you sir are a gentleman.

when you select a brick in LDD, it will show its number and name in status bar (bar below the main window). Most of the time you can find that brick on bricklink by part number listed in mentioned status bar, in this case 24116.

I'm not sure why LDD lists it as 3 x 5 x 3.

LDD most likely uses the two distances in studs from the bend to each mounting hole. Bricklink seems to derive the 6 from the distance between the mounting holes.

I searched all using all the info from description in the status bar except the number doh!!

In this case the description was wrong but if i'd used the number I would have found it.

Still lessons learned for a novice LDD user.

Cheers

Its shown in the Mine Loader 42049 parts list as p/n 6133245 and will also be in the BWE set.

The xerion also has this part in black.

The Hydroplane has it twice in Blue and the Racing Kart has it in purple i think

Racing Kart has it in purple i think

No, 42048 Race Kart doesn't have the 24116.
