Re: IH5070 Paystar 6X6 now a log truck
 

I got tired of this sittin and the rotator was just not looking good on this chassis :( and lost interest in it for a bit :( so the rotator is on the shelf for the next IH chassis :D . So now it's going to be a self loading log truck with a pup . I got the boom base made up tonight and mounted to the frame . I'll get pics up as I get more done :o tomorrow I'm back out of the shop for another week :(:(:(

I have a feeling the next 10 parts you make will need something cut on the big mill... :p :D

Seriously...nice work Steve. Hey, you're milling big chunks 'o metal...I've been milling sheets of Styrene all night. LOL. I'll put something up later.
