List of Parts we're using today:


Building steps:











I used this piece to make modifications - adding wheels to the back of the vehicle.

This one was really fun to build, and I think I'll combine this one with one of the mechanism build to create a new contraption. I have to make modifications for the power function placement and add support structures to connect the two. Hopefully, I'll do that soon.

Have a great day!

LEGO Technic Build (Mechanisms) - Page 146, Build #186

I'm building another cam today.



As stated in a previous blog, a cam is a rotating machine, which transfers a oscillating or reciprocating motion to another part known as a follower. A really good example of a cam is a car engine.



Pieces I'm going to use today.









I can't explain why, but I really like building cams. I had a lot of fun building this one, and I hope you have a lot of fun, too.

Have a great day!
