Kenworth K100- a try for a 42008 C model

[efferman]

thanks guys, here is the promised vid

@eyes only

it is an semi tractor, and as these it has enough functions

[Edwin Korstanje]

The overall looks is great and better than the A model, and can't wait to seen it in black

Yeah, i def need to buy 2 sets now! Brilliant work as always!

[legomuppet9]

Nice work effe the only thing I'd change for if it were to become an official model would be the steering, kids would undoubtedly find it too slow but for an MOC, the steering mechanism you used is ingenious

[efferman]

changing the steering to an fast one should not be an problem. simply use this method

iam not sure if it is possible with the actual leftover parts, but these parts shopuld everyone have on stock

[efferman]

iam proudly present the black widow < ldd file

and the K100 with a more direct steering mechanism < ldd file parts which are not included in the set (simple standard parts) are marked in orange

the missing corners at the top windows are in real cutted pneumatic hoses with a length of 44mm

the ldd file with the slow steering but no extra parts comming soon

I no it's a C model, but i black it's even more a beauty

[efferman]

indeed, the colour makes a big difference

[Edwin Korstanje]

What color can do .

I hope jou will make it in black and than as towtruck

unfortunately the new small panelsare, as far as i know, not available in black. but they are available in white. so

something like this should be possible

That's an amazing likeness of the Kenworth and it is incredible that you managed to make it from the parts of a single set. The tires are clearly too small, but there is nothing you can do about with the constraints of the parts in the set.

By the way, I love the turntable.

[Alasdair Ryan]

I think you should try making a ''D'' alternative truck based on your Kenworth that only has two axles instead of four,then with the left overs you should have enough parts for a trailer with pneumatic legs.

[efferman]

ok, i dont think that this will happen. why?

1.) US tractor units with two axles are not really pretty in my eyes.

2.) with which beams and panels i should build this trailer?

3.) iam working currently at the super boss

There could be only one Boss, and you know it!;) looking forward to your Super B.

P.s.: do you want to work at Lego Technic team, since you have a good Experience in building, incl B models?

a dream would become true, but i dont know if lego is fun for me, when it is my work. and my spoken english isnt so good to discuss in realtime

[skriblez]

Spoken english would be no problem efferman :) You would be pretty fluent atfer a short while :)

[efferman]

[Kwon]

Really Awesome job! Will you add pneumatics?

[efferman]

no, i see no sense in pneuma tics for this moc

[syclone]

As I seen on another topic"super boss" you aren't making it?

[efferman]

No, i dont get a proper look with the parts
