The second half of the interview with , LEGO Designer of 8285 Crane Truck set, has been waiting for you! ...or has it been the other way around... And so it continues... Making all the different gears work, was probably the most challenging thing in the 8258 Crane Truck. Also the function of the crane arm took some time to develop. TBs: You are probably aware of the fans’ reactions and praises (like it beating the venerable 8480 Space Shuttle’s record number of gears and its nice look). But also some criticisms to the Crane Truck (like the outriggers’ flimsiness and the half tooth misalignment between the steering axles). Can you comment about eventual compromises you may have faced to design this model? When designing a LEGO Technic model there is always compromises that have to be made, both regarding functions, size, time and price.
Regarding the number of gears; it’s not a goal in itself to beat the records of previous models, we simply use the number of gears needed for that model. The designer has built with this for many years in concept models, but those models have never been launch. This was the first time we needed it in a model that was launched. We do of course keep an eye on if somebody else comes up with brilliant ways of using the LEGO elements, but in this case it’s a very well known way of building for us.clearly the Actuators because they are easier to control and have a longer reach. The pneumatic parts work better for models that have a limited space or functions that doesn’t need very fine control. TBs: After having designed this year’s Truck, is the Enzo Ferrari (8653) still your most challenging creation? the 8258 Crane Truck is definitely now my most challenging creation, because of all the different functions in the truck. We start by having an idea of what to build;
from there it’s more or less a trial and error process. We don’t use any design software in the model design process. It’s the: 32054 friction snap with cross hole, because it’s very easy to build a function as a module and then snap it on using this element. Clearly the 8258 Crane Truck, but I also think the 8285 Tow Truck is very nice. That must be the 8880 Supercar.but it needs to fit in to the overall LEGO strategy. So far that hasn’t been the case, but I haven’t given up hope yet :) Yes of course, we want to know what you like and don’t like about our models and elements.

A Lego Legacy - Technic SetsLego Technic sets were first introduced in 1977 and they have been a hit with builders of all ages ever since. I personally received my first Technic set when I was 10 years old and I thoroughly enjoyed working on fitting all of the gears, wheels and plates together. Technic sets can be a lot more challenging to build than regular Lego sets, but in my opinion, they are definitely worth the effort!
