  1. Thanks Brian Thanks Carl Thanks Kerry I now have this posted in under glass with out side pictures.
  2. My Super Bee Trucking fleet needed a bottom dump trailer and seeing that there’s no bottom dump trailer kits I decided to design and scratch built my own. I used the Load King trailer for my reference data on the dimensions and style of the trailer. There’s a WIP post of the building of the trailer. The fifth wheel plate pivot’s, the bottom gates open, landing legs are adjustable and the load tarp opens and closes. I’m starting on a Dodge LS1000 day cab to pull this. The Frightliner and Mack used in the pictures already have dump trailers. Your comments are always welcome and appreciated.
  3. Worked on the frame and engine and found the front bumper that I’m going to use plus I reworked the Frightliner visor.
  4. I kind of figured that you were referring to my bottom dump trailer. Lol.
  5. Steve your off to a great start on this flat bed trailer. Your suspension looks awesome.
  6. I’m finished with the this trailer now it’s going to be over in under glass tomorrow after I get some out side pictures. Thanks Bill for the new material for the load tarp and everyone’s comments.
  7. Thanks Kerry Thanks Gary Thanks Patrick
  8. Looks great Bill I’ve done small sections of Diamond plate and it’s very time consuming looking forward to seeing it all done.
  9. I’m finishing up my bottom dump trailer and need a cab to tow it. The Super Bee Trucking is getting a second Dodge to the fleet. This is the AITM resin Dodge LS1000 day cab and I’m using a AMT Frightliner for the donor chassis and engine. With this being part of the Super Bee Trucking fleet it’s going to be black and yellow. Started with the painting the rims so far.
  10. Tracks look good Warren they will have that newly painted affect when you have them on. What yellow paint are you using?
  11. Awesome details Jeff. I like your seats ? and steering wheel ?.
  12. Thanks Brian Thanks Chris Thanks Warren anytime for you lol.
  13. Thanks Jeff. It’s only 3’ long lol. Thanks David.
  14. Thanks Jim Thanks Anthony, check out my WIP for the information on my trailer. Thanks Mario
  15. I’m getting closer to finishing the last item will be to replace the load tarp with new material thanks to Bill Newcomer. Here’s my progress pictures.
  16. Excellent build Brian!
  17. Thanks Dave, I’m going to have it at the HAMS show.
  18. Thanks Kevin. I picked up the decals from ModelTruckin. http://www.modeltruckin.com/store/index.php?main_page=products_all Thanks Jim.
  19. This is the AMT/ERTL Bulldozer kit with the following aftermarket parts from PapyHobby. I added the blade cylinder, new tracks, a PE kit and the D8K cab. The 3D printed parts all fit with out any problems but allow for a month or 2 for the parts to arrive. I added a couple hydraulic lines on the ripper and blade cylinders. This is also my first attempt at weathering. Your comments are always welcome and appreciated.
  20. I’m calling this one finished for now. I will have it under glass with a lot more pictures.
  21. Seeing that I’m almost done with my dozer I thought I would check out the push bumper on the trailer. Looks like it’s going to be close but it’s going to work.
