Re: RCP Compound
 

I remember that model Mario I saw them tearing one down for rebuild @ the local Cat Dealer before I moved from Ny that pic brings back memories

Re: RCP Compound
 

Oops....I see I may have opened a can of worms on you Reg, now everyone will be suggesting what you should build next....my turn....I have to agree with you about having a loader, watching your vids with you using the small loader looks like fun, a larger version would be able to do a bit more "work" if you can use the words work and RC in the same sentence. I would vote for a big loader with a high lift......we should both build one at the same time, same machine two different scales....oh but it has to be big enough to load a 777 :D:D

Re: RCP Compound
 

I wouldn't want to build anything larger than a 988 but if that would load a triple 7 then:D

OK guys, here's another conveyor video. Heaped scoops and well, you'll see.lol

Re: RCP Compound
 

Good laugh....conveyor cowboy!!!!

Either that's a really big hat or the guy under it is only 1/14 scale!!! :lol:

Re: RCP Compound
 

I think the CowBoy hat is very Normal :D

Re: RCP Compound
 

Yes that hat is normal for sure. Not sure about the guy wearing it though...

Re: RCP Compound
 

Well He seems to scale :D

Re: RCP Compound
 

That loader and squirrel are awesome!

Keeping myself in check, I took a break from building and played with this thing for a bit while I fed some mosquitoes. It's actually a lot of fun for a light weight toy. I can see why people convert these things.

Re: RCP Compound
 

Seems like the operator has been behind some CAT controls before a time or two eh? Good job on the conversion Reg.

Re: RCP Compound
 

A little but not a whole bunch. I guess I've put over 1000hrs on my Kubota since I bought it but I don't know much. I just pull levers and hope for the best.lol

I filmed a short in cab video tonight. The camera really picked up the noise so turn the volume down if you don't enjoy horrible noise.

Re: RCP Compound
 

Thanks Mark. I'm not sure why the other link was copied and pasted. It happened once and I caught it and thought I had fixed it. I guess we all know what happened to the guy that thought...

That Euc is a big girl! That must have been later on when they were owned by Hitachi or something?

Re: RCP Compound
 

that might scare rw

Re: RCP Compound
 

Haha. I doubt it.

Re: RCP Compound
 

when will one of these be showing up at the compound ????

https://youtu.be/Nm08zioMOdI

Re: RCP Compound
 

Probably never. We haven't had snow here for 4 winters in a row! Cool toy though.

Re: RCP Compound
 

With the nice weather I have been trying to spend more time outside of the shop. This thing hadn't been run in two years so I had to clean the carb(more than once), drain the fuel and so on just to get it running. I haven't messed with these things much in years but it had a pretty serious bog off idle before so while I was playing mechanic I started trying some different jetting. It's a bit fat at full throttle(me too) but I have it running pretty good now.:D

Re: RCP Compound
 

Looks like fun! Any you didn't even take a dirt nap!

Re: RCP Compound
 

Not really anything to do with "the compound" but I insured this yesterday for the first time in a couple of years. I went for a 50K logging road/trail ride today and did one yesterday too. Both rides were only about two hours a piece but it was great to be back on this thing! Good times...

Sweet vids, and nice bike! Don't worry I yell and sing random things when riding everything too haha:D

Snow run.

Re: RCP Compound
 

We had some snow over the last week but normal weather has come back and now the snow is gone:bounce::bounce:. This was the first time since 2010 that we've had enough to actually play in here at our place so I was in a mad dash to run as much stuff as I could in the snow as it built up. THe snow eventually got too deep for anything other than the Tigercat. I was amazed at how well it plowed snow!

I didn't get far in this one as the snow was getting pretty deep for 1/14.

After the Hayes got stuck I was running out of options so I brought out the Tigercat 630D

After a fair bit of positive harassment from my wife, she convinced me to get the pit bikes going for some laps in the field.

Thanks for looking!

Re: RCP Compound
 

Good to see you are making it through the winter Reg, started to think you were like the bears and went and found a hole to hibernate in until spring ! !

Great photo's of the Logging operation... Did you use a drone for those shots ? looks like full size machines. Trees sure are big on the South end of the Island.. haahah

Greg

Re: RCP Compound
 

Very nice shots! It fun to be outside with "scale snow" :)

Re: RCP Compound
 

Nice logging equipment Reg.
