Dirt Demon Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Well guys, I finished awhile back, just have'nt posted any updates......the chain binders are fully functional, they came from KFS. Still have to put the glass in the excavator and more weathering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landman Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) Dis you take the measurements off a real trailer or were you able to obtain drawings? Also, is that excavator a kit or a die-cast promo? Edited July 15, 2014 by landman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirt Demon Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 Thanks for all the kind words guys. Pat, I got the measurements from COZAD trailers, and used my scale app to make it to 1/25 scale. The excavator is actually a New Ray plastic toy one. I took it all apart ,repainted it, made my own decals, and weathered it to look like a real one, and not a toy.
