Looking good Lou, I like the window frames. I'm always looking for a way to make them.

Re: Logging & Construction Equipment
Thanks Kent ..Window grumets are a bit of a tough one ..I am always looking for different ways to make or improve something for building models ..Imn some of the pics i posted you will notice the the fitting collars I was using were round with a rib texture ..these are the ones Leimbach produced ..some were snug and some were loose..I decided to make my own out of 1/4 inch aluminum plate ..nice snug fit ..look a little better as well

Re: Logging & Construction Equipment
Lou, pictures are great but there's nothing like seeing it in person. Can't wait to see the reaction now that you have all the decals installed, that sure finishes off nicely!
Now to see it in action next weekend at the Museum show. |

Re: Logging & Construction Equipment
Lou, great job on the filter box it hides the receiver very well and the hinges are awsome too. I see in picture six you've also got the front engine exhaust stack mounted now, how does it sound with them both running?
