Thats impressive Reg , looks to push that wet dirt with ease.

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Nice job Reg! Looks great all painted.

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Thanks Stuart. Well I have busted both so that's not good but I think I have things sorted now. The converted servos are easier to mount in the machine but require more fiddling to attach the sprocket. I think the gear motors are smoother in operation but are more difficult to fit into the machine because of their width. I have one more experiment to try with dozer #3 but both 1 & 2 seem to be working OK.

Thanks Mike. Yes I think it pushed a respectable amount for a small machine.

Thanks Ian!

Today's update. I added the cutting edge to the blade and started work on the open D6H style cab. I have raised the height and added width to the cab in an attempt to make it more to scale for a D6. I still have a bit more to sort out and then I will mount some grab handles and such.

Keith, I know you were totally in love with the stock exhaust pipe but I had to change it...Sorry:rolleyes:

I finished up the cab details yesterday on the D6H. I think it is ready to have the remaining bare parts painted.

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Thats impressive Reg, The Winner is D6H i think ;o) a must have.......
can i have one please ?!

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Thanks, I like it too and will probably convert the cab on mine to something similar.

Yes you can have one! I have built all the parts for dozer #3. I am just waiting for motors and someone to step up with some $$$$.:D

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

How big step do i need to make with some $$$$ ? :bounce: Sir.

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Your killin me Reg ,
ive yet to get an ESC for the dumptruck : ) Your build keeps getting better , love it !

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Depending how they are outfitted with aluminum parts, I'm looking to get $1300-$1500 Canadian for them. Either way that would include everything short of a battery and TX/RX. Actually if an Orange RX receiver is compatible with the customers TX, I would include that too. I guess I could sell them with the TX/RX but it would obviously cost more.

If we start talking about these kind of details on the open forum, maybe this should be moved to my vendors section? If any mods see fit to do so please go ahead!

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

cant wait to outfit that bad boy with a beautiful interior :bounce:

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Sounds Great Reg.
I will send you a pm. after the weekend when i return from work tour.

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Yeah Brian! It needs a scaled up seat and some other details. You are just the right man for the job! It will definitely be the sweetest Bruder conversion out there(my biased opinion:D). You may need to make more than one set...

Sounds good Bo. I am still waiting on some parts for #3. #2 needs to go before #3 gets it's electronics.lol Gear motors for it should be here soon though. Santa has them on early delivery from China:lol:.

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Brian might outfit many D6H is my thinking Good idea Brian
Yea let,s hope Chinese Santa get here soon ;o))

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

No sign of the Chinese Santa yet but this one is nearing completion.

I just assembled it this morning so I need to go over it and brush paint a few nuts and bolts. I also made a drawbar for it but the paint needs another day to dry before I install it. I think it turned out pretty good although I wish I was a better painter.

http://youtu.be/b94Ve-jpaQc The light is not the best in this vid so the color doesn't show up very well.

These pictures do it more justice!

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

I've been following along Reg and this conversion turned out incredible!

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Another AWESOME build Reg!

:cool: You are "Scale Art of Canada" :cool:

Can't wait to see the D11 :rolleyes:

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

Dang reg!! For a four hour conversion you have out done yourself:). Looks awesome!! I wish Santa would make a trip to Vancouver island and pick me up one of them, but he may be overweight with my bag of coal!!!! This has turned out incredible. And the videos look smooth and pretty powerful. I think you put all the right parts in all the right places. Good job man!!

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

I want to know how they slow down time on the island because if that is 4 hours that would be 3 weeks for me on the mainland ! Mike

Re: 4 Hour Bruder Dozer
 

:jaw: It's incredible Reg !!!!! I absolutely love it !!!!!! Can't wait to get this baby home :bounce:
