Wow Clayton, that's an impressive piece of machinery!! This is a great project to take on. You're correct in saying "take your time". I know you'll do an excellent job on it
-
Thanks for the kind words. I have to say this project was born out of necessity. There are too few choices in the 1/24 - 1/25 scale for construction equipment. We're not as fortunate to have the selection that's offered in the 1/50 scale. It only leaves us with one choice...and that's to improvise!

I know you'll enjoy this build Clayton. I'll make sure I keep taking plenty of pics
-
Thank you Clayton and Terry. It's a "learn as you go" project that I really enjoy

I like it Terry, very clever! -
Thanks Jeff. The trailer will be a 125 ton Rogers unit. Right now I'm working on a Bruder bulldozer and converting it to a D11 to use as the load. Here's the link for that project: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=97889

Super looking single axle...job well done Sean! -
I'm glad to see the hydraulic and air lines being installed. Keep taking great pics of these details. This is something I would like to attempt on future builds.

The wet tank looks better closer to the cab. Two thumbs up on the ram!!
