So, what is it different from a huge number of other aircraft tugs? To date, this is the first and only representative of the fourth generation because, of course, the best. When we first met, he immediately strike dimensions: length 14.5 m, width of 4.35 m and a height of 2.32 m (without exhaust system) weight of the truck is 70 tons. From him and breathes inside hidden power. And really – his eight-cylinder turbo diesel 12 liters develops immodest 1550 HP Thanks to this power and the latest double-circuit transmission MAT is able to move with a full load at a speed of 25 km/h. For comparison, the maximum speed of most existing tractors under load does not exceed 10 km/h Maximum speed without load is 60 km/h. Such a high rate (at standard tractors it is twice less) allows the machine to quickly and autonomously change their location, especially if to remember its weight and dimensions. Standard ground clearance of the machine is only 14 cm, but the developer is going to release sarojadevi off-road version. Despite the impressive size, the MAT has a high maneuverability thanks to its independent front and rear steering. The new system of smooth adjustment of the angle of the course allows us to reduce the load on the tires when maneuvering and significantly increase their service life. Speaking of tires – even this would not have happened without the revolutionary technologies! They are made from the latest super wear-resistant material – nitrofuranto. Its main feature is the nonlinear elasticity, so engineers were able to abandon the conventional hydraulic suspension and saved so much space and weight. In particular, a tank for hydraulic and, accordingly, oil consumption were reduced by 30%.
The MAT is equipped with two reeving winches, which are able to operate in tap mode in the presence of the outer boom. To ensure stability in the tap mode, and to simplify maintenance (try replacing the wheel with a diameter of 1.8 meters at a 70-ton machine), the machine is equipped with hydraulic full-lift jacks. The winch shafts structurally integrated into the carrying frame of the tractor, ensuring reliable operation and safety.
The MAT is freely extensible platform. In the front of the machine removed oil seals for hydraulic connections, and at the rear of additional mechanical drive. The manufacturer offers as attachments huge blade and the outer jib-crane. Dozer will be especially useful in winter, as the performance of such a machine an order of magnitude greater than that of conventional snow removal equipment. Because the blade is completely beyond the operator's line of sight, the cabin is equipped with hydraulic lifting devices.
Needless to say, the cab operators meet the most modern standards of ergonomics. The touch pad, robotic CAT, review FullHD camera, sound insulation, climate control – everything is done for the best possible experience. Controls the main and auxiliary cabins are fully duplicated, so that the control can be done from any location.
Now, when I talked a bit about the original (photos, unfortunately, are not), you can go to my model. Scale 1:19, just under tech-figure. Accordingly, the following model dimensions: length without attachment – 76,5 cm, width (without/with mirrors) – 23/26 cm, height (without/with exhaust pipes) – 13/15 cm, weight – 4,45 kg. On creation took about a month and a half.
Designed specially for Moscow Technic Festival on Aug, 26, this Scania Topline truck is powered with a pair of large motors, servo steering, remote control and return-to-centre saddle for easier coupling. The manual functions are presented with openable doors and cab, as well as rear door of the trailer with locking mechanism.
The trailer itself is equipped with another receiver as well as 2 medium motors for coupling / decoupling and outriggers + brake system. Apart from own weight and batteries, the truck is capable to transport at least 1kg extra load, which was the requirement for Rig'n'Roll competition back at the festival.
Hopefully, the video of coupling and driving process (as well as the whole challenge with other contestants) will be published soon - there were enough people filming this whole thing :D
'Borr', seen here in Liverpool Docks, is a water injection dredger that was built in 2015 at the Dutch Technical & Maritime Services yard, Werkendam. It is transportable by Road. and can be equipped with a multi-purpose unit for a cutter system, various grabs or pile drivers and is capabile of dredging to a depth of 14m. The name comes from Nordic mythology and means ‘son’.

Cathedral Rock trailhead.
Cathedral Rock Trail ascends one of the most recognizable rock formations in the heart of Red Rock Country. Many visitors hike the first quarter mile to enjoy the fantastic views from the first ledge, where the trail meets Templeton Trail. From here, the trail becomes as much a rock climb as a hike, requiring non-technical scrambling up rock faces and ledges to make it to the final ascent to the top. The saddle between two spires offers spectacular views. The unmaintained trail explores the lava dike and spires at the top.

My inspiration for this image came from the “I Love Lucy” episode where Lucy gets a little behind on some bills and Ricky decides to get a business manager for her. After taking money to pay all of the essential bills, the manager leaves Lucy with just $5 to spend on food and other extras for herself. Obviously, Lucy schemed to get around this budget, and wound up with a huge bill to the grocery store at the end of the month…but, it got me thinking. Could she really have made $5 stretch as a food budget that month? Not quite, but close…was the answer I gleaned from a quick Google search. In the 50’s a gallon of milk was, on average, only 82 cents, a loaf of bread only 14 cents, and a gallon of gas…get this…only 20 cents! Today you can’t even put together a single meal with that same $5.

Taking on this new technic challenge, futuristic motorcycle. After STEM Fest this weekend its back to figure making with Sentinel and Lockdown
I've been very busy lately (moving to the US!), but I thought I must make a Viper for Novvember.
I've always entertained the thought of making a Technic spaceship, and thought I would try it out this Novvember. However, you can't have a technic model without functionality and as such I decided to implement at least one function, and of course the standard technic fig ;)
Its function is to rotate its wings in two dimensions, controlled by the lever on the back side. See an image demonstrating this here:
This is my version of the BR232 Ludmilla made of LEGO TECHNIC bricks in 1:16.5 scale suitable for the LEGO Technik Trucks.
The locomotive had the premiere at the Bricking Bavaria 2022 exhibition in Fürth this weekend.
With more than 1,2m length and a track of about 10m she could drive a bit back and forth.
When I designed the rails, I made sure that a rail switch could work as well. So I also built a switch.
After a few small weak points, she drove back and forth in exhibition mode.
The interior has only a fake motor so far.
Next year, all the functions will be integrated like:
- running diesel engine
- 3 controllable fan coolers
- fans of the eddy current brakes
- light on the second side
- coupling mechanism to couple and uncouple wagons

It's not clear to me if this Kaiser is a Special Traveler or a DeLuxe Traveler. They share the same engine.
Note the subtle indentation in the top edge of the rear window. The windshield also had this novelty.
The Kaiser-Frazer Corporation was formed in July 1945 by two successful businessmen Henry J. Kaiser (1882-1967) and Joseph W. Frazer (1892-1971).
Immediately after the war their industrial activities changed to develop and produce cars.
In the first three years the Kaiser-Frazer Corp. was quite successful. The company offered cars simultaneously under two different brand names: Frazer and Kaiser. The sub-companies shared bodies and technics.
The first cars appeared in August 1946.
New for 1949 was the Traveller Utility Sedan. This was a combination of a kind of commercial hatchback with a station wagon. The car had a back door which opened in two parts. The backseat could easily folded down to create cargo space. Industrial designer Howard "Dutch" Darrin (USA, 1897-1982) had a main influence on the styling, but the designs were revised by Robert Cadwallader.
Alex Tremulis (USA, 1914-1991) joined the design team in 1950 (after the 1948 Tucker failure).
For model year 1951 Kaiser offered a restyled Special and DeLuxe range, with a very low belt-line.
Production of the Kaiser model year 1951 started already in March 1950. This was a half year ahead of other car brands.
For 1951 and 1952 the Traveler Utility Sedan was available as two and four door version.
The Deluxe Traveler Utility Sedan replaced the 1949-50 Vagabond Utility Sedan for model year 1951.

Screenshot showing SF Contest No. of entries before voting commences (technical issue)
See the text "There are 308 entries in this contest". Also note that the contest is "now closed for voting" - that's because this screenshot was captured before it officially opened for voting - at which time there were 292 entries in the contest. Presumably the others were tossed out before it opened, for whatever reason.

It is scale copy of 60035 Arctic Truck. The Lego Technic model is powered by four buggy-motors with two RC units. The gear ratio is 1:3 from slow output. One M-motor is used for steering (auxiliary output). Dimensions: 42x22x29 cm, weight – 2.9 kg.
Apologies for the sudden stop in uploads. A broken laptop has resulted in a trip back home in order to pick up a borrowed laptop.
Except, I'm not home. Due to complications with the upward chain, we've been in the process of 'moving house' for a few weeks.
The temporary house however did produce this lovely little H reg Micra, looking very original and rust free. I've been told it rarely leaves that spot.
How's this for a fun little technic dog? I've even included the parts so you can build one yourself.
This is one of my most complex models – Feller-Buncher. This type of construction equipment feel trees and stack them for easy removing.

Hello Fellow compatriots to yet another moc! or rather a group of mocs! when building these Toa Hagah i wanted to go for whatever would look cool for these builds in the spirit of the original Toa Hagah sets we got with a variation of shoulder builds but also better articulation which has been hungered over for a long time. Now with these Toa individual they each carry a particular theme. Toa Gaaki is filled with vents for a more aquatic feel while her mask having subtle relationship with the mask of clairvoyance, furthermore i made her left handed. With Toa Boomunga i went with the theme of Rock Raiders, intigrating the brown with the black while adding metallic armor. However since there is already so many colors on him already, i reserved the green for the eyes. being the cool one in the group Kualus is Ice Planet themed personified while being asymmetrical with his metallic armor. But also since his right arm is exposed it allows him to swing his pickaxe more effectively fictionally speaking. Now for my boi Pouks, there is only so much that you can do with Mata brown so i made him a beefcake of muscle with a subtle reference of the Tarakava with the arms. Anyways i hope you enjoy these builds!
experimental bridge span for a large modular bridge. I plan to make a cable stay bridge with up to 10 of these sections.
each section is 10 1x 16 technic bricks long and has a train track on the lower deck and will have a roadway above.
Restaurant shop front in Chinatown during the Chinese New Year. Whilst i hate the horrible shark fin trade for a (still!) popular (superstition!) soup, i do love light & colour of the scenery. Technically the New Year festival is still ongoing for another few days, but the key date was on 29-Jan. What better opportunity to practice my street skills? This scene might look like this throughout the year, except for the nice hairdo :)
.
Please feel free to check more shots from Chinatown in my Bangkok album.
