The combo together today, I used the kit decals ..thats a 1st for me ! Now their hooked together I'll add service lines. thanks for everyone following along and the comments. I really wish I'd figured out the air cleaners/ hood..but it worked out. The next build on the bench...let's just say I have a very large Hornet infestation lol.. -

The T800 is done !!! Those flexi straws worked great for exhaust pipes, glad I grabbed a couple spares. The purrrrr- fect match for this build I'll add some minor dust around the chassis to sell the theme, but keeping the truck clean. Thanks for following along on this build...it took months longer than I planned. -

Thanks! I scored a pile of flexi straws yesterday while having lunch w my Dad, funny how modelers see supplies while drinking ice tea !! Thanks I wanted a daily used look after watching clips of these trailers in use. They get dragged thru worse conditions then NY pot holes -

Well, the trailer is almost finished! Just need to adjust some sloppy weathering, and make a couple decals. I don't care for the yellow appearance I noticed after the photos were taken..easy fix. The working portion of the trailer is my favorite. Its done w multiple layers of pigment powders, different shades of very thinned paint, and damp rags w thinner to remove base colors. Thanks for everyone following along! I promise I'll wrap up the KW soon -
You could always just drop it off at a certain person's work, and he could spray it for ya...lol He's probably playing whack a ball in a gopher hole right now or choo choo...

KFS Michigan Loader
gotnitro? replied to Warren D's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I curious, would this type loader be transported w wheels mounted or removed and installed at the job site ? I've seen photos of large quarry equipment hauled in pieces, got me wondering Either way, we know the Brockway has plenty of pulling power for it ! -

Thanks everyone for your feedback I really appreciate the comments. Such a loss not having the reflective tape available now, after what seems like a renewed interest in trucks/ trailer builds. @Mopar - D I won't have a retractable tarp, just a set of sideboards around the hopper. I realized an error after hanging the doors, dummy mistake too. I didn't leave enough room for paint on the cylinders so they bind up right now. I'll tweak those then be back w a fair update -

gotnitro? replied to gotnitro?'s topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Thanks The reflective stripes were from Line O tape, the last roll I had. Found out they closed their doors too..lousy news I could source more from rolls of tape available at hardware stores, and have enough for 5 lifetimes lol -
Excellent work on this IH ! Impressive work with your 3d print,definitely the direction our hobby is headed in a good way after seeing what can be accomplished
