Paul P Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 Sorry for going OT: Might be a stupid question, but does the old Expert Builder gears fit on regular Technic axles? Are the holes regular pin holes? How is the plastic quality? The axle hole fits a standard axle, the pin holes are the same size but only 75% depth the plastic is ABS just like the newer parts.. Quote
timslegos Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 Effe, what i meant by studded was the connectors on the turntable to be studded, or at least allow enough room to attach axles under the rim of the turntable. tim Quote

timslegos Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 Any drawing of mine would confuse rather than aid in my description . I was trying to ask if you could make the custom turntable like the old studded turntable. I am working on a studded build right now and it would be far easier to implement. tim Quote
efferman Posted March 30, 2014 Author Posted March 30, 2014 That should not be a problem. 3 or 5 holes like my studless version? Quote
timslegos Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 That should not be a problem. 3 or 5 holes like my studless version? 5 If it doesnt extend past the circumference of the turntable, 3 otherwise. Thank you very much effe! tim Quote
Polo-Freak Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 (edited) The Wheelcovers for the Countach rims & covers painted in silver... perfect :-) Edited April 2, 2014 by Polo-Freak Quote
zux Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Looks very nice! What about those rear tires? Looks like they have been moded in some way. Quote
Lundgren Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Wow that Countach looks really cool and 100 times better with the "authentic" rims! (but I'm missing the rear wing!) Quote
efferman Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 wow, this looks perfect. thanks for sharing the pictures. i have pictures too colour compare between standard blue, shapeways royal blue, and 41999 blue to narrow so it needs some tweaking 100_1020 von efferman auf Flickr Quote

Pat-Ard Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 and all parts for a steered axle is available in one set the camber part is available as single part Hi efferman, wouldn't it be better to make the parts separately available? So it would be possible to have the parts in different colors... I'd prefer this... Pat Quote
efferman Posted April 4, 2014 Author Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) sure, but when the parts are not in a set it will be more expensive. i will upload the parts separately to see how much edit: all six parts in one set: 20,43€ all six parts sold separately: 26,9€ Edited April 4, 2014 by efferman Quote
Pat-Ard Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 holy ... That's heavy... OK, I'll stay with one color :-/ Quote
efferman Posted April 4, 2014 Author Posted April 4, 2014 dont give up to early, maybe this set is not possible we will have to wait till mne are arriving Quote
Pat-Ard Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 yes, I'll wait definitely until you receive your parts... No worry... Quote
EyesOnly Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 WOW that Contach is so freaking cool! My thoughts exactly. Amazing how much proper rims help. Quote
