Timorzelorzworz Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) This is a Dumper Tractor, the model I've developed in 2019 for the younger audience of builders (8+). It has 330 parts on 75 different ones and comes with an alternate build, just like an official set. On rebrickable you get instructions for the main and for the alternate model. Dumper Tractor (main model) The model features articulated steering on a working steering wheel and a tipper which is operable on both sides with a clever linkage system. The tipper is lockable - tipping and steering always works together. Under the hood you can see a piston moving by spinning the wheels. The model is built at larger scale and fits for example the 42114 Hauler. Yes in real live such a Hauler is very big, but a Dumper is rather small. Here are more pictures of the model: Racing Kart (alternate build) If you have all parts listed in the inventory, you can build something different from the Dumper - a cool Racing Kart. It features a working steering wheel and a moving piston as well. Instructions Both instructions for the Dumper Tractor and for the Racing Kart comes in high quality images with a simple step by step following and easy build. Here are two example pages from the main model: ... and for the alternate build what you get two cool models they are very fun to play with satisfying builds with clever building techniques high quality premium instructions with clear images And remember again, you get the instructions for both models! ;) color changes Of course you can build the models in totally different colors, as long the parts are available in those colors or become available in the near future. Below are some color changes for inspiration: One thing to mention: Due the cancel of 42113 the tapered panel is yet not available in orange. Hopefully this part becomes available later to build a orange tipper. more pictures, more content Feel free to visit the showroom of my page to see more pictures and 360 degrees renderings of the models. follow this link or visit the models on rebrickable Edited July 24, 2020 by Timorzelorzworz Quote
Touc4nx Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 Interesting. I like it. I was just wondering, where is the engine in the dumper ? I like the fact that the A and B model are made on totally different theme. Quote

TeamThrifty Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 These remind me of the sets of the early 80s - i mean that as a compliment. This is how technic started with sets like this. 850 and 854.. happy days! (and people moan that 42114 isn't perfect enough.. i'd have sold a kidney for 42114 in 1981!!) These are great little moc's!! Quote
agrof Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 Oh, this is so good! I just fell in love with it for the first sight... Thank You for sharing, I will definitely build it! Quote
MangaNOID Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 Love that dumper!! (Especially in yellow and red) Quote
BusterHaus Posted July 25, 2020 Posted July 25, 2020 Nice model. By the way you can select different materials for colours, such as rubber or transparent. Right now the tires are set to plastic, which is why they look so shiny. Quote

paul_delahaye Posted July 25, 2020 Posted July 25, 2020 Loving the dumper, probably would look best in all blue or yellow and black could be a real set Quote
