Posted April 30, 201410 yr Hi guys! Today I want to show you my newest model - ERF E12 skip loader. erf-4 by Makorol, on Flickr I think that all information is in the video, so here it is: If you have any questions, ask :)
April 30, 201410 yr Not bad, infact not bad at all. Great MOC. Nice details and a good looking cab. I like hot the LAs are barely visible. Only the stabilizer looks somewhat flimsy. Do you have a photo of the original truck? Fantastic work well presented.
April 30, 201410 yr Fantastic looks and functionality! I like the way you've hidden all the technical features from sight!
April 30, 201410 yr Great job! Excellent mix of Model Team and Technic. Good job on the presentation, too.
April 30, 201410 yr Just great. At first, I thought that was some kind of Creator/ModelTeam Truck, and already lost my attention. But then I watched the video and was amazed by the number and implementation of all those functions. Really great, one of the "cleanest" models I've ever seen. Cab, back and everything in between. Thumbs up!
April 30, 201410 yr First class model and video, I did not catch what is sued to change the speed with the gear box, is this via PF or a switch that has to be set before setting off?
April 30, 201410 yr Slick! It looks just like the real thing, all the details are beautifully done. I second the above. I can see many a child and parent enjoying this model. Great job H
April 30, 201410 yr I dont see a detail that wasnt addressed! As I said in the comments, great video! tim
April 30, 201410 yr This is absolutely STUNNING! I've got the 42024 Lego skip loader, which I thought was nice enough- but then you come along with all you ERF's functions, and blow 42024 away... My favorite function is the rising mid-axel, that's cleaver. The only "bad" thing I can say about it is that the truck look to be a little too short, compared to the original: But that's just nit-picking, don't mind it (also, perhaps i'm used to the 42024's extra-long wheel base, done so to facilitate the batteries' box behind the driver's cabin). Great (MOC) work!
May 1, 201410 yr Author Thanks for your comments! Aswering your questions: Any chance of getting instructions???? Unfortunately no. I was thinking about this, but this model is too complex inside, I think. Maybe next time :) I did not catch what is sued to change the speed with the gear box, is this via PF or a switch that has to be set before setting off? It's remote controlled via PF. There is a motor, that changes the speed. The only "bad" thing I can say about it is that the truck look to be a little too short, compared to the original: It would be a bad thing if it was a photo of original truck. But my model is an ERF, and the truck in the photo is, a MAN, I think :). Here you can see the real ERF truck, which was an inspiration for me: J376PEC ERF E12TX 375 Edward Redden Skip Lorry by john lilburne, on Flickr And, as you can see, it's shorter than most skip trucks.
May 1, 201410 yr ^ Yes, that is indeed short. Actually, "my" photo was of an ERF, just not the right one. Here it is from the front: Yes, I know, it's not the same...
