I LOVE the light idea. The "T" bars look good too.

I love them roof trusses! Makes me wonder if the technique you used could be used to make a bridge structure.

Haven't been able to get on here for a while. Wow, great progress! Only problem I see is, no one will be able to see the great workmanship inside if you get it all covered up.

Some people ask me ; "When are you going to put the skin on it?" and some like to see the internals. My plan is to make the house but also make it removable on the left side. That way I can show off the machinery and be able to see if the wire ropes get screwed up . The operators cab is on the right side and that will need to be attached securely. I hope to have scale operator in there with the controls working in unison with my movements on the 1:1 controls and some of the red and green lights on the control switches working as well. |

AWESOME job! I just picked up your post and now I'll make sure I check back!

Roof trusses look sweet.
If there's a scale operator doing the controls, it's going to raise the question if you're controlling the machine, or if the little guy is controlling you. https://youtu.be/esp7IhlCMF4 |

Hey Steve-sometimes I can log on here and sometimes I can't. :confused: But I will keep trying. Your dragline looks better everytime I check it out. Good job!!!
