dr_spock Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 For my Triple, I started with a cold planer or asphalt milling machine. It has manually operated conveyor belt, rotating madrel, and 6 cylinder engine. The other 2 parts are still to be built. Quote
KirTech LAB Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 Very good idea!!! Are you going to assemble asphalt spreading machine? Quote

skppo Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 I'm guessing steam roller as the last model. Nice work so far. Looks like a lot of people utilized the rule that treads don't count. Quote
KirTech LAB Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 how did you know I am building a paver too? i was thinking about this mashine when i was choosing what to construct for contest )))) Quote
dr_spock Posted November 25, 2013 Author Posted November 25, 2013 Skppo guessed #3. It's a pneumatic tire roller. Steering wheel turns the wheels. I'm guessing steam roller as the last model. Nice work so far. Looks like a lot of people utilized the rule that treads don't count. Nice work. H Thanks. Quote

Jim Posted November 26, 2013 Posted November 26, 2013 This entry is really growing on me!! I like it because it's original, it has functionality, it has synergy between the models, nice color scheme and presentation on the base plates. I see kids actually playing with this set. Very well done Quote
