Thanks for the pics. Looks nice all painted black!

What are the nitches that you have filed/cut into the sides of the spring retainer plates?

Regards,

Ben

Re: RCLogger
 

I didn't know you wanted the second one Reg . hahhah

Ben the notches are so that it doesn't hang up on the rivets on the inside...

You can never have too many toys Greg! You would have to scale the machine up a bit for me though...:D I'm planning on building a mower head for my Volvo but no plans for any grapples just yet.

Not a lot of space to move around Greg, you there merely for display?

Where did the crane come from and have one of you rc'd it already?

Re: RCLogger
 

Had some time to build a slip ring today, not sure how other people build them but this is what I did.

How's the view through those Russian Big Eyes? I have a set of the 10x80 WW2 German Flak binos those were copied from. I've never found a set I could buy here in the USA I could afford. Those come in handy for spotting rifle bullet vapor trails in long range shooting over 500m.

Lookin Good Greg! Seeing your hydraulics all plumbed and ready makes me wish my father inlaw had more time at work to finish mine! I'm really looking forward to the show in July this year, it should be a lot of fun!

Re: RCLogger
 

Looks good Greg. Now let's see that cab you are hiding!

Re: RCLogger
 

Nothing wrong with that slip ring arrangement at all! Well done that man - I might copy that down the line!

Keep up the good work!

Re: RCLogger
 

Looks great, almost finished! :)

No not a lot of room Joe, we had the excavators going at times loading the train. Also Lou put on a very good demo loading logs on his logging truck with the 966 and also his John Deere log loader.

The crane is Robs, he has mentioned about converting it to RC. Time well tell:D

Re: RCLogger
 

Not sure what make they were but you could see a long distance.
