Dafgek81 Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Ok, I see. But could you design one for a single tire? I can choose which ones to use when I am building the trailer. Quote
efferman Posted July 3, 2015 Author Posted July 3, 2015 the arocs let buzzing my head with new ideas. Leafsprings are a must have, and allwheeldrive should be possible too Quote
Epic Technic Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 How are you planning on getting the leaf springs there? Quote
Nevercallmebyneme Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 I think the bottom of that big piece should be a separate piece also. Quote
Dafgek81 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Hé Efferman, Did you have a chance yet to make the single tire mudguard for me? Quote
efferman Posted July 4, 2015 Author Posted July 4, 2015 it is done https://www.shapeways.com/product/PHU4FNC86/fender-for-single-43x24-tires-non-steered?key=259b478b6ce3a0df90f6ebccea98e304&optionId=57289393 Quote
Nevercallmebyneme Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) Makes me think of the ones on the fronts of motorbikes. could you make some motorbike mudguards? Edited July 4, 2015 by Nevercallmebyneme Quote

Dafgek81 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Looks nice, Will definitely buy them when building the trailer for my Actros Quote
Epic Technic Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Effe, I was wondering if you got any of the money when someone orders on of your items off of shapeways ? Quote
SNIPE Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) How about: A 5L thick technic beam but with pinholes intersecting from the top/bottom rather tha just the front and back, only concern is will it be strong enough but there are other stronger plastics than ABS. This would make so much more possible when building MOC, because axles or pins can join onto the liftarm from either direction but saves the inconvenience of the old studded beams. Unline the studded beams which have offset studs, everything is lined up but there still should be enough materill to have in-between each hole so it has some rigitidy to it.

efferman Posted July 4, 2015 Author Posted July 4, 2015 something like this? https://www.shapeways.com/product/CTC798W2J/perpendicular-beam-set epic technic, i have this option, but i dont do this. Quote
SNIPE Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Almost, except the holes go through each other and theres a complete row of holes on the sides and top/bottom Quote
Dafgek81 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 the arocs let buzzing my head with new ideas. Leafsprings are a must have, and allwheeldrive should be possible too Would love to see the result of This axle-setup in the Arocs model, can't picture it yet. Quote
Saberwing40k Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 What do you picture from my description I picture something like this, but with Technic holes, and repeated to be longer. Sadly, I think that such a piece would be ridiculously fragile, and to be honest, it does not solve any real problems. However, I do have a suggestion: Effe, could you make a piece kind of like the perpendicular beams, but with a pin or axle hole in both ends on the long axis of the beam, and one with 1/2 width for one hole at either end? I'd also like it to be between 11-19 studs long. Such a piece would be immensely useful for building any kind of lattice, especially in lattice boom cranes. Quote
efferman Posted July 5, 2015 Author Posted July 5, 2015 snipe, i picture this and this is to weak Quote
oracid Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 Hi Eff. I would like to make a big beam of 31 with alternate holes, but I lack time and I am sure to do less well than you. The last beam that you show is much interesting and if you proposed it on Shapeways, I will order for testing. But provided it is a length of 15. I think it is difficult to test the resistance of a beam if it is too small. I think this type of beam with holes on each side, not alternated, is very interesting. When you say that it is fragile, do you mean it is soft. For me, if a beam is soft it is not a defect but an advantage to take into account. Quote
Nevercallmebyneme Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 um, but you cant put pins through each other... it would make more sense to replace the holes with pins. Quote
efferman Posted July 5, 2015 Author Posted July 5, 2015 no, not to soft. it will collapse under stress but if you want test it https://www.shapeways.com/product/4R52D3Q6U/holes-on-all-4-sides?key=24c53207ea7ee1e09641157bd119802f Quote
