LEGO Technic Micro Heavy Duty Excavator

So far, the Technic Heavy Duty Excavator is my favorite LEGO set. When I saw the contest come up in my notifications, I thought about it, I had the parts, and decided to try it. I started with intentions of pushing myself out of my comfort zone and having fun along the way, knowing that I might not win. I started with the tracks and went up from there. For the tracks I used chain links for the same effect, but a smaller version. For the cab I used some transparent white smooth circular plates. For the back where the engine would be I put a yellow plate with a stud upside down onto the brick below it. For the arm and bucket I used axel (pin) connectors and a 1x2 beam w axel hole and pin hole. It has 2 functions for it’s size. It’s first function is that is can drive forward and backward. The second function is by turning a gear, it will move the arm and bucket up and down similar to the actions in the LEGO set. The Micro Excavator is also smaller than my hand. Thank you for reading!
