     (...) Very nice. I've never seen one of those compactors done in LEGO before. I also don't remember seeing a semi tanker made from big radar dishes. Cool! David (18 years ago, 17-Jul-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

     (...) (snip) (...) Thanks. I've seen the following semi tanker before, and it's where I got the inspiration actually. (URL) I have no idea who built it though. All I know is that is was displayed in a show in Germany. Pierre (18 years ago, 17-Jul-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

         Re: More vehicles —Fred Beck
     I had not even noticed hat it steers! Is there an actaul steering mechanism from a wheel of some sort on the body of the truck? Perhaps you have to move the wheels by hand. It's so tight I can't tell. (18 years ago, 17-Jul-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)
    
         Re: More vehicles —Pierre Normandin
     (...) Thank you Jonathan and Fred. There's no steering mechanism, the wheels are just posable. Here's the trick: (URL) You'll need to add a 2x2 plate underneath to make it more sturdy.

        Re: More vehicles —Andreas Weissenburg
     Great models in a great folder! (These 5 models are not the only reason to follow the links) And I'm wondering about the wheels of the landfill compactor. Are they attached using the chain link/link tread 3873 on a gear wheel? Andreas (18 years ago, 17-Jul-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

     (...) Thanks! (...) Exactly. Pierre (18 years ago, 18-Jul-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)
   
        Re: More vehicles —Bryan Wong
   (...) Pierre, you never cease to amaze me with the amount of detail you pack on all your town vehicles. You will be the source of inspiration (i.e. a person to copy from) for vehicles if/when I build my own town layout! -Bryan (18 years ago, 17-Jul-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)
