August 26, 20195 yr Thanks efferman Received my shapeways order thank you the designs work well after cleaning parts and assemble looking forward to integrating with J.O’s moc thanks dean
November 18, 20195 yr Efferman hi! I have a plan to build Groove 6400 crane with Yours superstructure. I want to buy custom actuator for it. Can You help me with it? Thanks.

As I understand, it will be black and white, because one of them don't have black option.
November 19, 20195 yr Author yes coloured parts wer made white and then dyed with ink. when the parts are not cleaned properly before this the loose dust is sealed and the neccessary cleaning is nearly impossible.
November 27, 20195 yr Is it possible to get your 3D-files so i can print for my self? Exampel all the wheels for racing tyres? Or maybe make a website for downloading your files?
November 27, 20195 yr Hey there Efferman, You have some awesome work on here, and I wonder if you might be able to help me? I am looking for a lego technic-ized version of an eccentric as below: Spoiler If you look at the second picture in the spoiler, the idea would be a central circle the same size as part 4185 the Technic wedge belt wheel, but with a flat face instead of how it juts out in the picture above, and with an axle hole towards one side (see O in the first picture). Perhaps doing without the packing, then having the two straps that can close on either side of the sheave, leaving the holes for an axle and bush to take the place of the bolt and nuts shown. Lastly, the top strap would preferably have an axle connection that can lead vertically from the whole body (see N in the first picture). Do you think this might be possible?

December 19, 20195 yr Author It was a request a few days ago and i doesnt have printed it yet. The loose gear has a 5 sided polygon to transmit torque. It should transmit torque like normal gear with crossaxle, maybe better.
December 19, 20195 yr I really like your independent designs, I have used some of your designs using Lego parts and sets for rebuilds etc and they have been very effective. Thank you

Interesting to see this concept here, in 2015 I got this exact same idea and printed it on a home 3D printer. You can watch it in action below. Now, in 2020, print quality of 3D printers has massively improved and nylon is stronger than PLA. Based on my own PLA gear, think this nylon setup will handle your specified torque.
June 18, 20204 yr Hey Efferman, I love your work in designing these parts. Is there a way to download the files? I'm planning on using some on rc trucks :)
January 6, 20214 yr I ordered the xl actuator for my grove 6400 crane with efferman boom. I’m excited to try it out. @efferman do you have a turntable for this? I suppose the whole superstructure will have to be rebuilt. The large boom puts so much stress on that little turntable.

I have built the crane with your superstructure using the directions in gmk topic. I wonder how change I’d have to make using the 60t turntable. can you please provide me a link to your turntable supports?
January 14, 20214 yr Author @DizzelHondo, on my uppercarriage you can the old turntable https://www.shapeways.com/product/CBJHXEZWV/turntable-support-13-studs-diameter?optionId=58697999&li=shops a new idea Edited January 14, 20214 yr by efferman
January 22, 20214 yr Hey there efferman, I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. For some reason I'm not getting thread reply emails. No, nothing would be under torque. And of special note is that the sheaf would need an axle hole rather than a pin-type hole. Thank you again for your time and I look forward to hearing back from you!
