Had the Felbermayr TGA telestep and TGA Norager telestep turn up during the week. I have never been convinced of the white wheel covers found on some Felbermayr trucks but the model actually doesn't look that bad.

It's what you learn after you know it all that counts

I gotta go against the grain here,I think the wheel trims look great on the big Man,probably due to them being white and going nicely with the blue and white cab,don't think they would look half as good in a different colour though,makes a change from chrome or polished alcoa wheels and the tacky looking painted wheels,I may be bitting the bullet and succumbing to one,just one,if they came without blade I'd have bought all 400 of them

Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

Another great day and even warming up slightly Received this on Tuesday and got some pictures this morning. Another great model by WSI/Mammoet Store, but there are a couple of things I wish could have been added. I have listed these after the pictures:


































The Scheuerle Inter-Combi's are packed with detail and are also quite heavy - not much plastic used. Axles turn well and have vertical movement to replicate the suspension. Included in the box is a number of steering rod which allow you to change the steering characteristics of the modules. However, this brings me to my first wish. Having not been around this type of trailer I struggle to understand how the steering can be changed as there is no information with the model. In this case, I think some information on the modules and their various configurations would have been great. I tried searching on the internet for some info but no luck so far. I also believe that these modules can used in a push/pull configuration so I was rather hoping that a coupling at the back and perhaps a drawbar would have been included to allow for this. Sadly that is not the case. For those that have or will have one of these, you will be very impressed I think and in my opinion it is worth the price. One word of warning, be careful with the connecting rod between the drawbar and module axles. The threads on mine were filled with paint and I had some issues cleaning them out!

One last thing - as mentioned earlier, I have not experience with the 1:1 version so if the configurations I have used are incorrect or some statements not true to life, I apologise in advance.

Thanks,

Paul R

looks really good buddy, i still hate those white wheel covers but i guess i can learn to live with them, im picking this model up soon! does the section come with lifting point or anything?

ahhh, thats to bad.... with as well as WSI has been doing with models and details lately i think thats a major ball drop not including something like that in a model like this

It is funny how things work out. When I got the Mammoet Scheuerle set I was wanting a load but didn't know what. After a while I found a few pictures and decided on what I wanted so contacted Jason (Hummer13) to build one for me. The spooky thing is that even before I had decided what I wanted, he had already built it!

Here it is:









Thanks for a great job Jason!
