I would agree that a smaller grab would be even better. i assume it will be manual?

tim

[efferman]

yes it will be manual.

i have a little update for you

added airfilters

An linear 4 cylinder engine? no way!

could it be that black is more than one colour in Lego?

Very neat, just one criticism, when he hood is open, it looks like the engine is too low down. Don't forget that real engines have a lot more under the pistons, and it would be neon impossible to get an engine in like that with it being so low down. On the whole, the cab looks well. Ahh, multicoloured Lego, I thought that was a thing of the past, old lego maybe?

Robert.

[ciken]

This truck is looking really good! Very nice looking truck.

I noticed a variation in the black color while working on my current project. Maybe the black color changed when the light and dark grey colors changed?

i guess the darkness of black depends on the light which is falling on it. on normal light the parts are all black, only at flashlight iam able to see differences.

and now something completely different.

yesterday someone asked me for a narrow steering driveaxle for its 12wide full RC version of a Kramer allrad

picture source

i think that is impossible, but i made him a axle.

it needs optimzing, but this can done while it will be implemented in the chassis

maybe someone of you, need it too, so i want post it here. feel free to use

[T_Tank]

that is one teeny tiny driven steer axle o.o

Much better. Consider what I said done. Is the front of the Truck finished then?

[efferman]

maybe but iam not sure, because i thinking about a working steering wheel. but first i spend time to a other corner of the moc

[Robert M]

I think working steering wheels are a must have if it is able to be done. It adds to much realism to the Model. Maybe though, would it be possible to make it so the steering wheels rotates 3 times for the rotation of the wheels. That would make it even more life like.

[timslegos]

Wow that is the smallest drive/steered axle i have ever seen! nice creation!

@efferman Where did your 8109 XL project go?

[efferman]

i will proceed it when i have finished the logging truck.

btw logging truck

i will use a crane which looks more "american style" to get most of the powerfunctions in the basement of the crane.

[jorgeopesi]

Much work on that crane I can´t wait to see the truck to take her and use .

[timslegos]

Looks good as usual. So you are not using the crane you originally designed?

tim

[efferman]

no, the first one fits good to the 9397, but for my moc it looks to tiny

Sorry for the question, but what is it at the upright corner at your monitor?

I´m confused.

How did you connect the two M motors under the turnable? they seem to just hang from a grey frame?

[efferman]

[gilby]

i took the liberty (AKA i was bored) of making effermans crane base.. i might do the arm at another time-gilby

[Firky]

Thats a really good design. I guess you would add a third motor for the rotation of the whole turntable? The only catch is the arm would start to open or close as the turntable rotates.
