Lego model of the British Class E side tank shunter introduced by Worsdell in 1886. A whoppig 120 units were built between 1886 and 1895. Minor changes then led to the J72 design. In 1961, the last J71 was finally withdrawn from service, after 74 year in operation.
I chose this prototype, because the design with inside cylinders and internal valve gear lent itself best to make an (almost) scale model with functioning pneumatic engine. The machine has serious torque, will start in any position (no dead center), and can already be operated with a single Lego hand pump. No pneumatic parts were harmed or modified during the process, just some silicone oil applied!
Psychopathic space-marine hit-man. Amazing.
Constructive criticism is always welcome.

An alternate model from a LEGO 8051 Technic set. 384 parts. 2 weeks to make it.
Instructions are available on the App Store fo free.
LEGO Technic model of a Watt type walking beam stationary steam engine. Engines like this were used in the early19th century for powering factories and weaving mills. Includes all the major moving parts.
The blue engine incorporates a Watt's parallelogram, while the red one uses a crosshead for guiding the piston rod. Other features are planetary motion gear on the crank, correctly timed sliding valve, air pump (for the condenser), and feeder pump.

For an article in a magazine I thought it would be nice to raise set 5580 again as it's a part my LEGO truck story. Back in 1986 I became this set and immediately I started to modify it and later on I created my own 12 stud wide trucks based on this set. Still is a fantastic model although building a set is quite dull (I think …).
A small MOC built in homage to LEGO 8065.
Features a worm gear operated roll off dumpster. And thats it.

The 1924 Targa Florio winner car was a 2 liter, 4 cylinder, super-charged Mercedes, with Chistian Werner at the wheel. This car is an early example of the famous Merceds Compressor series, culminating in the famous SSK and SSKL.
Unlike the usual white livery of the Mercedes racers, this car was actually painted red: Rumour has it this was a camouflage strategy to stop Italian fanatics from throwing rocks at the passing car, because it might be taken for Italian.
In the 1920ies, the race cars were actually driven to the race track on public roads like normal automobiles. For this trip, mudguards and license plates had to be mounted, to comply with traffic regulations. My model is shown in both configurations: as a slick racer, and as a roadworthy automobile.
Lego model with four-cylinder engine, two speed gearbox, differential, leaf spring suspension, steering, and operational hand crank.
I finally took the time to build a Bricklink Studio file for the Arocs Tipper Truck. Photo instructions have always been freely available, but now if you want to build this in a way that is a little easier to understand, you can.

This is the 8 cylinder radial for the OCTAN Air Racer. You will note, it is two 4 cylinder boxer motors connected perpendicularly with the common crankshaft. The build is a little bit "illegal," but it was cool enough for me to do.
A small air racer with a radial 8 cylinder engine, working joystick, ailerons, elevators, and landing gear. Much more including instructions at Thirdwigg.com. Find the Youtube video here.

For the Eurobricks TC19 contest. Features front and rear swingers suspension, front steering, rear wheel drive, four speed sequential transmission, and flat 4 boxer engine.
This is the B model of the Lego Technic 42077 Rally car set. As the car does not have too many Technic features I decided to spice up my review video with some Califronian summer feeling :) This is the result, you can check it in the video as well - youtu.be/YGJoZwbzQpU
Lego Technic MOC - Mad Max War Rig. The scale is 1:20,8. Total length – 120 cm; total weight – 5120 g. Remote controlled functions: all-wheel drive, truck tractor steering, fake engines under the hood, blade height control, the winch, truck tractor coupling, large tank support, large tank steering. So we can drive without truck tractor :)
Additional functions: opening doors for LiPo turning on and off, highly detailed exterior, wheels protection, working harpoon on the small tank, flame-throwers (not working).

A engineering robot created by the E.m. company (Engineering Mechanisms). She is the next line of Em bots as Emma was the first.
I rebuilt a couple of old MOCs to try out my new Fischertechnic tires I purchased from ebricks.ru.
While I may find fewer applications for these 60mm tires compared to the 80mm ones, these offer a great look for smaller offroad projects. The fit is perfect, and the traction is better than the 56 tires. Check some out if you get a chance.

I am in the construction stages of my next truck trial. As I comprehend what it will look like, what it will do, and how it will work, I am working on making a gearbox for the truck. This is what I developed.
I wanted to keep the engagement gears the 12 and 20 tooth bevel gears. This helped keep the meshing of the gears smooth as they change from one gear to the next. Shown is gear 2 of 3. The axle on the top changes to gear one, two, and three, over three studs of movement.
Ratios are 1:5, 1:2.779, and 1:1.66.
I have also constructed a changeover mechanism that will allow PF to change the gears.

As I am in the process of building my next Truck Trial vehicle, I am interested in creating a working and reliable 3 speed transmission. I started with my 3 speed transmission seen here. and created a way to have two power functions motors work to change the gears from one to the next. I wanted to use PF motors so I could control the system with a PF remote, and because I did not want to purchase an NXT system.
Two problems were discovered when I created the transmission: first, I would need a system that would move the drive axle one stud at a time since the transmission required three gear placements at three stud intervals. Secondly, the changeover would have to be fast, so the gears would not grind. Making this changeover fast, and to stop precisely at one stud intervals was the challenge.
The solution was to have two PF M motors powering a single axle that would rotate and translate that rotation into one stud movements. Each motor on either side is limited to one half rotation which will move the pulley wheel one half rotation. This moves the liftarm a total of two studs. By placing the differential in the center of the two motors, I can limit the movement of the pulley wheel to one quarter of a rotation. This in turn limits the liftarm movement to precisely one stud of movement.
By implementing this design into a truck trial, I will be able to shift between three gears with a PF remote and one channel, shift both while the drive motor is running or not running, and without having a neutral gear. In addition, this system is stronger than changeover gears, and uses fewer gears reducing total system friction.
See how the system works at here.
