  Roller Coaster runs on Monorail Track
 
I have designed a minifig-scale roller coaster that can run on standard monorail track. Each car can carry up to four minifigs around a loop, and the cars can run independently or linked in pairs. (I haven't tried longer trains yet...) (URL) There (...) (18 years ago, 29-Mar-07, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX)

(...) I really like the minifig bulldozing the balls off the circular track. It's very clever. So is the oil derrick. I also like the wall you erected around the layout. Every GBC should have one of those! In the video what is that wavy red thing (...) (18 years ago, 29-Mar-07, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

  Re: GBC MOC: Track Wheel Reservoir - Video!
 
(...) Absolutely! :-) (...) I thought about that when you said so before, but then I thought it was better to keep the tracks rigid, otherwise the tension might vary in the round ends, requiring good control of the tracks on the straight part. I (...) (18 years ago, 28-Mar-07, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.loc.uk)

(...) The forklift I posted is not my design. "TT" from brickshelf did that. It was just to give you ideas, and is closer to 1/16th scale. Maybe you can find his email and get some ideas from him. My only idea is to use Bimba pneumatics. (18 years ago, 27-Mar-07, to lugnet.technic)

This post is very late but has to be made. Beat's crane is incredible! Not only is it big but the aesthetic detailing is outstanding! Truck cranes are hard to design. Is there a video of it working? -Nathan (18 years ago, 24-Mar-07, to lugnet.technic)

  Motorized steering
 
OK - for all the mechanical gurus here... You've probably seen my RC manas truck on the sidebar here. The steering is controlled by one manas motor, geared down so it's really slow. This is done so that I can get the wheels back to center, because (...) (18 years ago, 23-Mar-07, to lugnet.technic)
