Default My "Little" Mog Camper

I've been planning on doing a Mog camper project since last year's AxialFest and I figured it was time to get going on it, seeing as how Axialfest 2015 is 4 months away. This is my inspiration...



I found this picture on a blog from Australia and just knew this was the one I wanted to build.

Parts list, thus far....
-DSPro Milex Cab!
-Axial SCX10 rail set
-Vanquish Curries for the SCX10
-Vanquish SCX10 Titanium Link Kit for the Curries
-Vanquish Panhard and 3 Link kits for the Curries
-Vanquish SCX10 VVD's
-Toyzuki Low CG Motor Plate
-Dinky RC Split Skid T. Case
-Transfer case Bomb Proof internals from Super Shafty
-Portal Axle boxes from Shapeways
-Custom Stub Shafts for the Portals machined by Chris at CreationFab
-Scale camping bits from HoyFab Crawlers
-MIP's for the main drivelines
-SDI 4x4 driveshaft for the motor plate to t. case driveline
-Hitec 7950TH for steering
-Dinky RC Cantilever set for the SCX10 for the rear suspension
-A Megaf**kton of styrene

I haven't decided what motor, ESC or any of that yet.

First I talk to my friend Ryan at DSPro and picked up a cab (last year). We started talking and he mentioned that he was thinking of offering a laser cutting service for styrene. Soooo I drew up some 1:10 scale schematics based on the real 1:1 Camper and sent them over to him with a "small" pile of styrene.



He sent me these the next day...





They turned out really nice.... (these first sets of pictures are really bad, excuse my crappy phone pictures)

Put the Dinky Split Skid transfer case together.





What's a Mercedes Unimog without some Genuine Mercedes-Benz lube?





Quick mock up on the chassis rails...I think it looks pretty good so far.

Started getting the camper box put together. This thing is so big I decided to go with some square tube to save on weight.

I finished the outer skin of the Camper Box.



The 1:1 has small flip up windows on the sides, but I'm making some sliding side windows to keep things interesting. I used some 3.2mm styrene U channels for the "glass" to slide in.



Quick mock up picture to make me feel like I'm actually getting something done...

DSPro only makes the single cab as far as I know.

I've been reinforcing the sides...







...and putting in some window sills. Waiting for a few pieces to get here to finish up the portal boxes, finish the drivetrain and organize the electronics.

One of the portal boxes mocked up with a test stub axle.

How are the portal boxes? Saw them on shapeway today and was thinking about them for my unimog project.

They are made well and look nice. You need to do a lot of axle mods and stuff, but they look like they are going to work out well. I have Chris at CreationFab making me some custom axle stubs and hopefully they will be done this week so I can give an accurate account of their operation.

I will sir! It won't be a comp truck for our comps, but it should be fun for G6's and trail runs.

Impressive list of parts

Hope you have something planned for the inside of your big box. Will you cover your support structure inside? Very interesting build . Every time I see a nice styrene build I'm tempted to ask how well it holds up to roll overs. I supose, if you can build it you can repair it as well....I digress, sorry

Watching this . Have to check out shapeways too, never heard of them
