Efferman's Custom Parts

[efferman]

Thank you very much, yours looking good too

[Leewan]

Oh, thanks, I tried to stick as much as I could to the official designs. And the 3x11x2 curved panel is a very complex part, so that wasn't easy to get all the little details. But... yeah, I'm glad with how it turned out, and even if they are a bit dark, I must say I'm quite proud of my renders, I think they make the part look better than it would actually be.

Hello Efferman,

If the rims are for the 8110 tyres, the are to big.

9398 Is the Rock Crawler if I am not mistaken, so those tyres are bigger than the 8285 towtruck.

The rims of post 297 http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=91294&st=275#entry1843701 are for the 62x 20 tires

[efferman]

and for the same tires i have made a mudguard piece. actually 4 studs wide.

8 of them would give a full circle with an outer diameter of 13 studs, but the most use would be this

more mounting points? wider or more narrow?

Hi efferman,

the mudguards look good. I would suggest mounting points on one side...

mudguard looks great, don't ruin it by adding more holes to it!

[Cumulonimbus]

Yes sir, I like those very much. Maybe one side (the back in you images) could have some additional mounting points? Or don't you want to sacrifice the symmetry? Those are at the 8110 scale, right? A similar part for the 8258 scale would be brilliant as well.

Hello Efferman,

I think we are talking about different rims.

I am talking about the rims you posted om march 8th, the top rim, I realy digg that one, looks like an american truckrim.

Hey efferman,

Those ' mud guard ' pieces look great, additional holes as everyone has suggested. Could you design Mud Guards for single wheel width and double wide wheel width? ( 62 x 20 size tires )

[efferman]

thanks guys

i have made a 3 wide version for single wheel and a tire for my 62,4x20 rims. it seems i have to reduce the diameter of the mudguard

truck rim for 8110 and 9398 tires

enough offset?

I am talking about these rims

[efferman]

these are for 8110 tires, this look is on a 62,4x20 rim only possible if there is only a crosshole in the center and no pinholes around.

to the mudguards, the first version is indeed to large in diameter. best looking is the left which has 10 studs from pinhole to pinhole, the middle has 11 and the right 12 studs. but has the smallest one enough space for steering?

Hi Efferman,

The one on the left looks very good. I think the space will be good for steering, as far as i can judge from the picture. I would love to have them. Do you gonna make them also for the Unimog wheels?

Richard

[efferman]

for unimog wheels it would be really expensive. a single mudguard piece for the 62,4x20 tires costs actually 3,14€ in white strong and flexible

the next part which i make is an end part for this mudguard, and then i going in medical rehabilitation for a minimum of three weeks. maybe i have internet, but no access to inventor.

edit:

the endpart. 3 studs wide, 2 studs long with a rounded end

Hope you will be better after rehabilitation.

[efferman]

Thank you very much

[Richard L aka Scooby]

Hi Effeman,

I wish you the best during your surgery and recovery.

Could you ,when you have the time and the willingness for it, make these mudgards elements for the Unimog wheels?

Grusse,

Richard

efferman,

Those fender mud guards are looking better and better. The first one looks the best, but with some MOCs that have suspension, maybe the second one will be better for wheel clearance when turning and going over a bump. I'd have to try it out in a mock up of my typical suspension ( ie. turning and going over bump ).

Do get well and relax, it'll help you heal faster, we'll all be waiting for your healthy return.

Not only are you coming up with some great parts, but you are doing it as someone self taught. Impressive. And I say that as someone who uses it 8hrs a day on average. Good luck with your heath.

[efferman]

thanks
