Re: Heres My New Project...Cat CT660
 

So I came home today to find this wonderful package waiting on my doorstep and boy was I a happy camper.....

Let me explain something to you guys..... when you want something done right, not only do you have to find the person capable of doing it but you have light afire up under there *** and give them some motivation lol.....STEVE is the man! (IHBuilder) Def not afraid to take on a task no matter how small or impossible it may seem..... He def proved he could with this job.....I had Steve make me the tank with integrated brackets for steps and the air tanks with brackets as well along with the hydraulic tank. At first i didnt think he would want to tackle the step job but he went and surprised me with it and KNOCKED it out oft he park! GRAND SLAM! This style tank and step will most likely be available for you guys to purchase through Steve at some point in the future.... enough talking...... SHOW TIME!

Re: Heres My New Project...Cat CT660
 

Maybe next time you could try some 3D rivet decals? Like this.

Here's a vid from youtube about them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlyUbS1Q4_Y

I've never used them, but they might be the right size for your future builds.

Re: Heres My New Project...Cat CT660
 

Yes sir I agree!
I've used those before on my HO scale trains but don't like them because you see the decal strip, and it wouldn't be very scale for this particular build since they are spaced apart more and my riveting was done exact count to match the truck.... As pains taking as it is, I don't mind drilling hundreds of holes lol.... It connects me to my builds:)

Re: Heres My New Project...Cat CT660
