I was looking at Bruce Lowell's sphere, http://bruce.kus-numa.net/lego/miscellaneous/sphere68.html, and thought it could be applied to trains. When Moderated, the result can be seen at: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/tankcar http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/tanker http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/concrete Until then, some deeplinks. I first built an 8 wide, 32 stud long tank car. It can be seen at http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/tanker/ze.bmp The interesting part of the build was attaching the tank to the base. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/tanker/af.bmp http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/tanker/ag.bmp http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/tanker/ah.bmp A while later, I was on the VIA rail train from Edmonton to Jasper and I took this picture from my seat. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/concrete/concrete4.jpg I modeled version 1 in MLCAD first and came up with: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/concrete/concrete.jpg Photos of the last version, in real bricks can be seen here. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/concrete/concrete5.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/concrete/concrete6.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/concrete/concret7.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/concrete/concrete8.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/concrete/concret9.jpg The LDraw file can be seen here. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/cokabesh/concrete/concrete.ldr Comments and critiques welcome.
