  Hercules Jr.
 
At the risk of thoroughly annoying all of the real technic builders here (people who build cranes and trucks, etc) here is yet another tiny walker. I said I would stop after the first one, but its kind of fun :) I was able to make Hercules a fair (...) (21 years ago, 7-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: Town scale Road Train with steering trailers
 
(...) In Australia, I think B-double and triple usually refers to trains where each trailer has a fifth wheel on the back axle block. Road train generally refers to trailers with yoked front axle, similar to horse drawn carriages in the old wild (...) (21 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.town)
 
  What I've Been Working On
 
I've been trying to build a realistic, articulate, 4-wheel drive chassis. This is the best I've done so far. I had to stop at this point because the drive train I'd integrated was too stressed to power. I won't have time to do anymore for a while, (...) (21 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  LoTek Single Set Power Pulling
 
Tobbe Arnesson, this is a question for you. Is your Single Set Power Pulling competition ( (URL) ) still open to compete in? I got bored and just started toying with building new designs of my 8457 and I think it will pull a fair amount of weight. (...) (21 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.general)

  Re: baby walker
 
(...) Great! The six piece design is nicer all around, but I guess if someone wants the design with one less piece, the fiver is kind of neat in its own way. This is actually less than an inch tall! I guess that probably classifies it as the (...) (21 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

  Re: baby walker
 
(...) Thanks, I'll be trying it out soon myself. I figured that if it lifted its foot off the ground, it would more easily be considered a walker. I hope you have fun watching it stomp around :). -jrl P.S. Are you planning on taking any pics? (21 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

  Re: yet another teensy walker
 
(...) That's really cool, congrats on a great job. I've actually found a way that you could make it a little smaller. I'll make an LCAD file and E-mail it to you. It looks a little interesting, but it should work. :) -jrl (21 years ago, 5-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: yet another teensy walker

You need two gears running in parallel for each leg, so having four legs that move independantly would double the size. I used this type (...) (21 years ago, 5-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Town scale Road Train with steering trailers

I've never seen road trains with axles like that - all the ones i've seen just have a standard trailer first, and the following trailers have a steerable axle on the front with a yoke to connect to the (...)
