Thank you very much for checking out my asphalt truck project from the asphalt road construction series!
Allow me to introduce you to what it is all about. Even as a child, I watched road construction with fascination, which became my job as an adult. The first thought was to build an asphalt paver, because I didn't find it in the Lego sets and Ideas.
Then I thought that if I already had a finisher, I should have everything necessary for road construction!
So, here is the truck, that tilts the asphalt into the paver's hopper in reverse.
As in real, the paver is pushing it's rear tyres with it's roller and controlloing it's speed.
The trailer can be tilted, unhooked and stopped on it's stander.
The truck's cabine is also can be tilted forward, then you can see the engine, the roof can be opened to see the cabin inside.
This asphalt truck is only one element of a complete road construction diorama, please look at the other units of the set in my Ideas, which could be used to assemble a complete road construction machine chain. There you can find many more things that are used in road construction, such as:
- asphalt paver
- tandem vibratory roller compactor
- tyred road roller compactor
- bitumen spreader with road sweeper
- fuel tanker
- foreman's car
- two team transporters, one with a compressor and one with a wheelbarrow and plate compactor
- laboratory technician with a core drilling trailer
- mini loader
- heavy trailer
- water block
It was so nice to see in my son's construction kit about 10 years ago when I first saw the orange element appeared, that these vehicles were mostly made of it. I think it fits the construction machines very well. The complete set consisted of about 4400 items, I really hope you will like and support it all!
I wanted to create a building set that I would have loved to play with when I was a child. If you think it was successful, please support it, and you can check my other road construction sets too.
If you find it worthwhile, please recommend them to others, because I am not present on social media.
I warmly recommend it to all children who like road builders and to anyone interested in road construction. I would like to express my appreciation to everyone around the world who chose this difficult profession.
I also recommend it to my children.
Thank you so much for reading, and please check out my other road construction ideas!
I wish you good day and good health!
Sincerely : Máté
