Posted October 5, 20204 yr I present to you mine new alternate model for 42112 Concrete Mixer Truck set->silo transport truck. The creation consists of a trailer truck and a silo. Silos can be loaded onto the trailer via the mechanism. "Concrete" bricks can be load in silos and unload with silo door. Truck have the same fifth wheel as Mack Anthem (42078) set. So you can attach trailer from that set and also other trailer in that scale. Functions:-HOG-Steering, -workable 4-cylinder inline engine, -adjusting the angle of the rearview mirrors,-locking mechanism of fifth wheel, -trailer landing legs, -stabilization legs for unloading, -silo decomposition mechanism,-silo door can be opening and closing. Instructions are available: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-53574/blaz62/42112-silos-transport/#comments
October 6, 20204 yr This is really well done! Nice use of the available colors and parts, and an overall convincing appearance. Bonus points for Mack-compatibility
October 7, 20204 yr Great Idea!!! I really like it and it would be the best B model due to a silo concept. You get a High 5!!!
October 7, 20204 yr Author Thanks to all. My first question is been what can i make from new part? I had few diffrent ideas but in the end this was the best. Also parts list wasn't the best. Set have so manj diffrent colures and that was also little challenge to put this in right places.
October 7, 20204 yr Nice idea. It was a shame that the set did not have any Linear Actuators, as that lifting mechanism for the Silo is just begging for an actuator and winder.
October 13, 20204 yr Author @trekman I tried to make some system (with gears) to lift, but silo is to heavy. Large LA will be great for this. @Ngoc Nguyen You make my day
