syclone Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) Is there any possibility of getting more stable images ? The ones posted above are a bit blurry. Regarding the model: Looks great already, which is bucket used? Edited August 17, 2016 by LXF Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Looks great already, which is bucket used? That would be a custom bucket. I think you have concentrated on functionality over looks,the moc is very out of scale. Quote
roppie11 Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) but the prize which you win (or not) is the crane, you do not like edit: i like your model btw, but it's not finished right? Edited August 17, 2016 by roppie11 Quote

Dafgek81 Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Looks a bit odd, it looks to be too low and too long. But it is a nice excavator Quote
2LegoOrNot2Lego... Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) I was not really happy witthe new volvo excavator o I have decided to make my own Even though I really appreciate the effort to build your own, I am not sure yours is that much better It is indeed a little out of scale/proportions, or at least that is what the pictures make me think... What do you think of this build yourself? Are you 100% happy with it? Just wondering... Edited August 17, 2016 by 2LegoOrNot2Lego... Quote
M_longer Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 This model looks weird, because it does not resemble dimensions of real EW180. Also, change this bucket to something else, because third party parts are not allowed in the contest. Quote
Technivor Posted September 11, 2016 Author Posted September 11, 2016 (edited) Hi guys! I have somes news, my volvo is now finish Here are the pictures: I have decided to change the other bucket to this one because it is more easy to control the small pneumatic cylinder than the medium one. I have added an elevation mechanism to the cab because I had space. A video will come in a fiew days when I will have enough time. Feel free to comment if you like it and have a good day!
