  My latest Technic MOC or What to do with all those wild coloured bent beams

Wow! You did a very good job there! I especially liked the way you created the hood (nice idea to use the ply-able tubes for the rounding). The model resembles the real thing very much. The only thing(s) I want to know: What did you do to the 24t (...) (23 years ago, 22-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) That's really nice! It's not often you see a model of a lawn-care equipment! Could you provide anymore details on your continuously variable transmission? Maybe a close-up pic? I sounds really interesting. Again you've proven that slight (...) (23 years ago, 22-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

(...) That model is absolutely stunning! It is one of the very few models I have seen that use a lot of the newer beams and liftarms rather than the older studded pieces. I really like this style actually; it makes the models stronger, look better (...) (23 years ago, 23-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Great work John. I wonder if you'll start a trend for Lego lawncare. (...) Really? I think Lugnet.Technic would have somthing to say about that. Steve (23 years ago, 23-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Stunning! But I too would like to know what you did to that crown gear to make it drive the differential. I've often bemoaned the fact that that combination doesn't work. The only compact solution I've found is to use the old-style differential with (...) (23 years ago, 16-Oct-01, to lugnet.robotics)

I've uploaded a few pics of my new MOC which digs into my supply of bent beams; (URL) haven't "motorized" this model yet, but that exercise shouldn't change the outline too much, just fill in some of the rather empty inside space! JB (23 years ago, 23-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic)
