Posted August 25, 201311 yr Some picture of one of my first MOCs since coming out of the dark ages. At least the first I'm confident enough to post, although I'd like to spent some more time on the detailing. Had it standing around for something, and got triggered by the 2014 news to finally post it. PF container truck: powered by 1 medium motor. 3 gear levers, each allow a function to operate in both direction independent of motor direction (switch on the battery box blocked in 1 direction such that the direction of the levers corresponds with the direction of movemen): - outriggers at back: can be used to raise the rear axle (just) of the ground for stability - left and right arms moving together or separately (to correct for misalignment of container when picking it up). Cabin inspired by the TLG blue container truck (8052), but made 2 studs wider and with modifications for especially the wheel arches. looking forward to your thoughts and comments.
August 25, 201311 yr Awesome truck! Thanks for sharing. It looks like a lot of fun to play with, and I really like that front steering, good job. And that M motor as a fuel tank, Great!
August 25, 201311 yr Well i have commented on it slightly already but good looking truck and welcome to EB. Now you just need a trailer to store more containers on.
August 25, 201311 yr Looks great, nice functionality and it looks good too, as others have said, I like how you used the M motor as the fuel tank
August 26, 201311 yr Nice! I think you should put Ackerman steering in there and maybe suspension. This is a great MOC! Welcome to Eurobricks!
December 17, 201311 yr Wow, this looks quite like the set we are getting next year. Thanks for sharing this with us.
December 17, 201311 yr Awesome first MOC man! Welcome to Eurobricks. I really love how you incorporated advanced steering geometry on such a small scale, it really makes the model stand out.
