REVIEW: 42147 Dump Truck

42157 Log Loader WIP Second iteration, basically 42157 Log Loader WIP

Second iteration, basically rebuilt from scratch. More massive arm nade with 3x19, all pneumatic parts used, including added claw operation. 

Everything above the wheels will be rebuild, so far I'm looking for proportions.

Thoughts?

Forever sorting There's nothing worse than partin Forever sorting

There's nothing worse than parting out a model and having pieces falling of the table. I have been looking for decent sorting and storing solutions that will fit my needs for a long time.
Lately I checked few moxom SimpleStore and I noticed that this was exactly what I need.
@moxom_pl was kind enough to provide additional containers for testing. And here you can see how various sets can be easilly stored and sorted inside them.
I'm very pleased and for sure I'll use these containers in large quantities.

Pneumatic alternate incoming!

The 42157 John Deere Skidder is an awesome set with five pneumatic cylinders and three valves. And very small amount of hoses.

And I decided to rebuild it into a Wheel Loader. So far I'm trying to get the proportions and functions  right.

Thoughts?

Review! Let's try something new, writing a revie Review! 

Let's try something new, writing a review for someone else model :)

This is an alternate model for 42136 made by ➡️ @grohl_lego 

It's an articulated Dump Truck, based on Hydrema 912. Featuring articulated steering, dump bed elevation and rotation.
Uses almost all pieces.

Cab looks good, it's detaied and it has few interesting building tricks.
Articulation is achieved by turning a joiner placed behind the cab.

Rear part looks a bit odd, mostly by the dump bed placed at angle. Access to lever pushing it up and to the turntable locking liftarm is problematic when you have large hands like me ;)

Overall this Dumper is a quite interesting build, that will look nice on the shelf too.

Instructions could use a bigger images, because now half of the pages are plain.

Rebuilt, stays in one piece, but few reinforcements will be made.

New front, new cab and new rear. Basically only colours are the same with first version.

It has to be rebuilt, but shows that this colour scheme might work.
