LEGO Technic snow blower (MOC) - Intrac 2011

[@markcruiser]

another great engineered example, no matter how deep the snow is, it "eats" it up. great job. Keep on brickin'

Thanks for your comment. The next projects are allready in the pipeline

Oh what a marvelous machine! Great work! Will you make a "Behind the MOC" video and show us the details? And what's the projects you have in the pipeline? Give us some leaks ;)

Hi, thanks. Yes, I would like to make a second video about the functionality of the Intrac 2011 snow blower. However, it is really weather dependent. The snow blower needs fresh snow and low temperatures. Furthermore the weather should be nice for the video (that wasn't the case at the first video) and I need a day off when the conditions are good. These are a lot of conditions which must be guaranteed. But I will see what I can do ;) There is still an amphibious craft which is almost finished but this MOC is more for summer time, since it is possible that I have to save the model in a lake. Then I have other ideas for LEGO MOCs. I just need to find more time.

Sehr gut!!!!! Do you sell the project?

[@functionalTechnic]

Hi, nein das Model ist ein Einzelstück und nicht zu verkaufen. Die Arbeitsstunden die darin stecken wären auch kaum bezahlbar ;)

I NEED a buggy motor... I try and make a snowblower every year and I can't because I have to gear up xl motors so much and it ends up in it not really working.

[@functionalTechnic]

Hi, the problem with the normal PF lego motor is that they are not powerful enought. The PF XL motor gives only 5 watts at 9V. This power doesn't change if you chang the gearing. The Buggy motor do have 12 watts at 9V. This is much better. Check this website: www.philohome.com/motors/motorcomp.htm If you don't have an buggy motor you can also take a RC motor. They are much cheaper and even more powerful.

@@functionalTechnic Thanks for the info.

[@antoineddp]

Just WOW ! I love the design, the functions, the power and all ! But just one little detail, it don't work better than your previous snow-machine, it is not very strong for the clear snow ;( Very cool machine ! Love it !

[@functionalTechnic]

thanks for your comment. What do you mean with clear snow?

[@antoineddp]

Clear snow is the object of your snow-machine =)

[@functionalTechnic]

Maybe I mistake you but the snow blower can handle a much higher pile of snow compared to the last one. The last one could only handle 1-2 cm. The new one can dig trough 5-8 cm. Also energywise the power is much higher than last year since I used 3 Buggy motor instead of two and 3 Sbricks to control it. This mens routhly max 9A and 11.1 volts. Last year it was only 9 volts and 1.5 A.

[@functionalTechnic]

Of course some RC snow blower are much more powerful.

Ok =)
