This is the end

My project will soon arrive to its end, I know, and I see it just right now it remains only 40 minutes (and a bit less now).

That was a great experience and I think I would like to try it again.

So this truck will be posted again (after modifications) on this website. I want you to check for it during a few days, I'll try making it very soon. And another thing I need to say is :

Thank you! Thank you so much to you all who have allowed me to share my project!

Good luck for yours, and just... Thank you. I don't know how to say it better.

 

Just a picture from the truck (an old one, excuse me) to say, temporarily : "Goodbye!"

That was (and will be, I hope) an incredible experience.

Regards,

Subtitles

Now subtitles are available on my two videos!

Maybe it is not very well translated, 'cause it's me who did it.

Please notify me in the comments section if you think about a possible modification.

100 sup!

To celebrate the 100 sup. on the project in only 2 weeks, I want to show you a detail from the truck :

The lift of the front deck.

It is a manual system, but really powerfull.

It starts with the yellow horizontal axle on this picture: 

It actuates the little actuators then the block on them is pulled up or down. It slides on two vertical axles (in grey):

This block slides into a part from the deck (reversed rack)

it's maintained in the reversed rack by the rest of the deck:

The deck can go (empty) up to here:

And with a heavy car on it :

This is more than needed to open the cabin.

Hope you enjoyed reading me!

Thank you all for your support, comments and dor your help in general! Please share the project! You are more than 100 now supporting it!

Good luck for your ideas too!

PS: I'm going to work on a comment wich tells about the rigidity of a deck, but for the momment this is not correctly finished. I will show it later.

56 sup. and 56 remaining days!

That's incredible :

My first project has more than 50 votes in less than 3 complete days!

 

I needed to show you my current work on the truck :

It is involved in a brickfilm and I give you a few pictures (later update for extracts of possible).

 As you can see, I use lots of Lego sets for this funny project (I make it with what I have).

Thank you all for your support, and good luck for your projects too!
