jamesonk83 Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 Hi, My name is Jameson, I am new to this fourm but I have been following the threads here for a long time. I really liked Pipasseyoyo's 6X6 articulated hauler, and he was nice enough to post many detailed photos on his brickshelf page so I thought I would try my hand at reverse engineering. There were no instructions, so it sounded like a good challenge! I have the chassis mostly complete, but unfortunately have gotten stumped on how the gear train will work once passed through the turn table. there is a 90deg turn with knob wheels, but they are in the way of the input axle and I can't seem to figure out how he has done it! I need to offset the input axle 1 stud higher to pass over the knob wheels. I was hoping someone here could help shed some light on it and any help would be appreciated. I have created a crude 3D model of the problem area to share in case it helps. Thanks in advance! https://drive.google...YW8&usp=sharing Quote
Zerobricks Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 Welcome! I think the best thing is to ask the author how he made it? Quote
jamesonk83 Posted August 15, 2014 Author Posted August 15, 2014 I would love to, but I think the creator posts to another forum. I was hoping the answer was something easy I was jut not seeing. Quote
Technic Gearhead Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 That is a really nice Hauler he has made with a lot to like about it. Good luck with your reverse engineered attempt - that looks like fun! I would love to take the best bits from this, the one by Designer Han, and the 42030 B model and make a modernized Technic Super Hauler! Quote
jamesonk83 Posted February 23, 2016 Author Posted February 23, 2016 Hi, sorry to bump an old thread but I finally have gotten around to some progress on the articulated hauler and thought I would share. I started an Ldraw file for the chassis. I have made the dump bucket but not in 3D. Perhaps someone more talented than me would like to finish the files!

dougstar Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 im building hans one at the moment pipasseyoyos is also a fantastic model . instructions would be nice though Quote
