January 25, 201411 yr This is how the trailer will flash, when the parts arrive here... Thanks to Zmei_gorini4... Pat That is very cool. Where did you get the lights from?
January 26, 201411 yr Thanks Arslan, just look in this thread... http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=90936 Pat
January 26, 201411 yr That is very cool. Where did you get the lights from? Hi, Achwan86. with pleasure help you make your option for you lights.
January 26, 201411 yr Hi, Achwan86. with pleasure help you make your option for you lights. Thanks guys. I am looking at the thread now. I like this very much, simple and effective.
February 3, 201411 yr I just equipped my unimog with a tipping bed, 2 trailers and a quick hitch, pictures will follow
February 9, 201411 yr Hi guys. New to Eurobricks. A lot of amazing mods in in this thread! I liked an early one of doing the tilt bed so I decided to make that my first mod. My last technic set was the 8860 chassis from like '82 which I just put back together (still had almost all the pieces). The unimog was a joy to build. Here's my pneumatic dump. I used parts from a hero factor kit as they were the only other recent technic parts I had. The pneumatic ram is from an old mid 80's set (maybe the first pneumatic kit?) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ko5Si_immTk
February 9, 201411 yr Nice first modification, and even a realistic one. Is the dump bed able to tilt to all three sites? It seems you placed the pneumatic cylinder more in the left of the Chassis.
February 9, 201411 yr I did indeed. I have very limited "new" studless technic pieces so my mod had to be very simple. I saw earlier in this thread a very nice 3 way mod with sub frame. Also I do want to add motors later so I wanted to leave the center of the chassis free.
February 9, 201411 yr Hi Graydingo, first of all, welcome on Eurobricks! Your MOD is really cool. Could you provide us with some more detailed pictures? Thanks. Pat
February 10, 201411 yr Thanks Pat. I'm very humbled by the outstanding attachments you all have made. I hope to build the B model by ordering parts off brinklink etc but I'm saving up for the MKII mobile crane currently. Here are some photos. I'm sure they seem very rudimentary to the master builders in here but I'm just getting started! :-) I guess you could call it a prototype. Of course I was lacking longer Technic beams which would have helped for my mounting hinge points as I wanted them to be rock solid. I was lucky i had that donor hero factory kit. Unfortunately the pieces from that kit are white/light gray and most are very short. what long pieces they have are singles in different colors. http://www.flickr.com/photos/117005685@N07/ I should mention that I wanted to keep the height no more than 1 stud higher than stock which I accomplished. The switch is run off the front line for the Unimog, but eventually I'll add in a switch so that both are operational.
February 12, 201411 yr Hi folks, today nothing special ;-) Zmei_gorini4 provided me with two little beacons... Looks good... Have fun watching... And again special thanks to Zmei_gorini4 for those cool beacons and the quick supply. Pat Edited February 12, 201411 yr by Pat-Ard
February 12, 201411 yr Ah man those are awesome! How much for a pair Zmei_Gorini4? Totally need these on my 'mog!
February 13, 201411 yr Thank you, Pat. I am very glad that you enjoyed these beacons. I look forward to the video of your trailer . Thanks again. To Graydingo. In this thread we cannot discuss the purchase and sale Please contact me by email or PM. Thank you. Edited February 13, 201411 yr by Zmei_gorini4
February 13, 201411 yr Hi folks, just a little teaser... More pictures and details will follow... So far Pat Edited March 2, 201410 yr by Pat-Ard
February 13, 201411 yr Nice colors. I like the double pneumatic cylinders as well, but I hope you are going to maintain those pesky hoses that are hanging all over the place. That's the one thing I don't like about pneumatics. Cool trailer though.
February 14, 201411 yr Thanks for your comments... Yes, I'll defenitly do something with the hoses. But yesterday it was too late and first I have to check what the best solution is. I don't really like cutting those hoses and than realizing, that I misplaced them...
February 14, 201411 yr today nothing special ;-) Nothing special, ha! These beacons are great and add a nice step to a better realism. Hope I'll get mine during the next week. I'm excited to see the trailer more in detail, because this one is also in my building queue.
February 17, 201411 yr has anyone created a free wheeling winch using a driving ring and a changeover catch ? I would be interested in seeing it...
February 19, 201411 yr Details regarding the trailer are in this post: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=92609 Pat
February 23, 201411 yr Hi folks, some more stuff for the forestry Unimogs... Made a log trailer with a self steered fore axle... And here's a little video: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/21147896/U400_Langholztransporter_video_720.mov Have fun... Pat
March 1, 201410 yr Hi folks, it's me again... Today I'll show you my signaling trailer. Yes, the old one, but now the lights are flashing. Thanks to Zmei_gorini4 who provided me with the LEDs and the circuit. The circuit has three modes. Left, right and only the top most LEDs flashing. Have fun watching. Pat
March 1, 201410 yr Hi guys, Finally I bought my beloved Unimog. I can't even describe how happy I am :) I'm not very advanced builder so, please tell me what is first modification that I should do to my 8110? Pat- Ard, I have to say that Your ideas are very inspiring :)
