(...) Thanks, Kevin. I had a lot of fun doing this. Perhaps it was the quick turnaround from concept to final MOC. It was much, much faster than other MOCs that I've built in the past. Efficiency is good! Especially with bridges. I really didn't (...) (21 years ago, 4-Apr-04, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.trains)

(...) Thanks, Adrian. (...) Ok, at least you're not drooling :-) I could have done it sooner, but I was washing my hair, combing the dog, or brushing my teeth.

(...) Thanks, Ted! The pattern is so darn simple- 11 identical segments (except the end supports are different). Once I established the geometry of 1 segment, the rest was a matter of speed building ;-) best, TJ (21 years ago, 4-Apr-04, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.trains)

I've bought quite a few 8455 excavators now and in all of them the pneumatic cylinders have restricted air flow due to partially blocked nozzles. The amount of restriction varies, as measured by extending and contracting the cylinders by hand and (...) (21 years ago, 3-Apr-04, to lugnet.technic)
