A basic Fake Part for the bucket instruction

Edited November 28, 20195 yr by efferman

You know that the "real thing" is available on PT with all gory details, don't you? https://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/46891.dat (actually all 42100 parts are available).

 

Really? Could please someone make an .io with all the parts?

does the ldraw actuator has a movable piston?

Did that (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1n7vUdkB4xFNDfEslgqdk-qAfXiQjP--b) but when I try to open it after removing my custom parts folder it doesn't load. Did you do something special for your LA file (which opens fine)?

 

Thanks

No, i only exported my parts with the partdesigner into stud.io and made the .io. As far as i know other people can use the parts which have loaded the file.

Dunno what's wrong with my file, when I open it as a zip I see the custom folder with parts inside, like in yours.

Anyway... other method that I know to work fine, here is the custom parts folder containing the 42100 parts (and a few recent other ones you could find useful...). https://drive.google.com/open?id=1BY2kstW74rRNR5g5gWL1syaIEgePtIMl

Add the contents to your CustomParts folder (located in C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Local\Stud.io)

I haven't tried to add connectivity on these parts, but you seem to know how to do that

Thanks

edit:

all of the parts does have massive graphic bugs after exporting from part designer to stud.io. in designer the parts are looking good

Edited November 29, 20195 yr by efferman

Yeah, already had this issue, part designer completely botches the parts. After adding connectivity, overwrite the parts with the untouched LDraw parts from the archive.

How i have to do the overwrite?

Simply copy again the folders of the archive in the same place as you did first. Connectivity is stored in another folder so no risk of losing it.

ok

 

The boom is divided and i have reached roundabout step 600.

This looks awesome!!! Thank you very much for all your hard work, and that of others who have their input. Fabulous ?

Mmmm Any chance of releasing an .STL of that bucket for those of us who'd like to try modify it for FDM 3D printing?

sure, the bucket was actually printed with success on a filament printer.

What software would you recommend to design my own 3d stuff (as you have), and to view and print this? Or will it work with any 3d printer?

Experience i only have on Autodesk inventor and this is a proffessional CAD Program. To view an stl file you can use an actual Windows 10. it has an stl viewer inside.

Not every file will work on every printer. My XL actuator for example only works on a SLS printer.

So my bucket has turned up from shapeways, can’t wait to get a parr’s list so I can order the bits to start.

Cool, thanks for that. I have a friend who has a 3d printer, will check to see if it will work etc.

Bonjour Efferman, Votre moc a beaucoup de succès, existe-t-il une liste des pièces pour commencer à les acheter en attendant les instructions? Cordialement

I have a preliminary Part list for the 42100 Backhoe. The Partlist can be different to the final Partlist. So please dont complain if you cant wait.

Hi efferman, I’m trying to use the store in rebrickable to buy the parts but I’m having trouble, when I compare sets it says I’m missing 650 parts but when I go to buy parts and add the standard 42100 kit to the list it says I only need 479. Kepes bricks is only missing 2 pieces 1x 24116 and 1x 98585 ( this seems to be very rare in white ). 

Out of interest, what will the cost be to buy the extra parts? I got the set for £279, but i wanted the Control+ motors and hubs, so more than happy with the price i paid.. presumably the intention is to use the old motors etc?
