Re: D11 New Project
Here is the latest photo of #1 The tank on the back and floor plate will be remade and fitted so it can hold the hydraulic oil as the Leimbach tank is too small for the amount of oil in the system

Re: D11 New Project
Your hood (okay, so you Aussies call'em bonnets) turned out awesome! I always look forward to the updates on this build. Keep them coming!

Re: D11 New Project
I am totally envious of the machines you get to use for this build :eek::eek: Even though I know he owns the shop, Rob should have on something more substantial than sandals :cop::cop: Can't wait to see these great models finished and moving some dirt!!

Re: D11 New Project
i would be very interested if you have a price for the cnc cad drawings or a price for all the metal parts to build it
|
Re: D11 New Project
Great work!
|
Re: D11 New Project
Wow, no shortage of detail in this build! I'm a little envious. You guys have summer weather, and it's still winter here. Shorts must be nice!

Some reverse engineering needs to be done as about 6 months of programs have been erased from the CNC mill. Below is from many moons ago http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/...gs/toys004.jpg |
Re: D11 New Project
Man! That just kills... the guy that erased the programming, did he offer any reasonable explanation? The time & money lost, I'd be shortening up his pay for a long while. Hopefully you guys can get it back quickly & easily. ;)
|
Re: D11 New Project
Is the program actually stored on the mill or on a computer attached to mill? The files will still be on there if not overwritten.

Re: D11 New Project
This weekend I took the model down to the club meet for show and tell as the other members haven't seen the progress in the flesh and couldn't resist the chance to put the speed controller back in for a play in the house.:D

Re: D11 New Project
Wow! The D11s are all looking really good. The one in your video runs so smooth too. All around, this is one very well designed, machined, and built model. I'm glad you were able to recover the files. That way you'll be able to produce some more of these beauties! :D
|
Re: D11 New Project
Hi Titan, amazing work! Your D11 is a very realistic model and the video with sound is great!
My compliments.;) Enrico |
Re: D11 New Project
very excellent work
|
Re: D11 New Project
Superb! Have seen it on your youtube channel, but missed a lot of the build thread :(
Great stuff, and great to see you get to build more of them - makes the work put into the digital design even more useful! (Glad you got the files back, what a nightmare!) |
Re: D11 New Project
It been a while, still working on the blade and a few more bits. The cylinders are now remade in brass.
Trying to find a good tube bender for the rails, using S/Steel any suggestions? http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/...ps21c8befc.jpg http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/...psafab35f8.jpg http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/...ps6bb6d160.jpg http://i1235.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9f2bffc2.jpg |
Re: D11 New Project
!!!!!!!!!!!! Now that makes my mouth water!!!!!! The last picture of thouse cylinders!!!!!!!!!!
How about just using solid stock for the rails? Then you don't have to worry about a collapsed bend. It's a pain in the butt, but for bending these small diameter tubes in ss and brass I've found it easier to make my own concave bending wheels. There are a lot of hand benders and nice tools but few of them bend a tight radius our modes need without having a pile of "spare" parts :). And the more I look at it the more I have to say the undercarriage on your machines are outstanding!! |
Re: D11 New Project

The material for the rails is solid ss and a jig has been made from a couple of bits of flat bar and a roll pin to bend around. The hard part is getting a consistent radius. |
Re: D11 New Project
Here is a bender that might work. You could probably make this-http://www.micromark.com/universal-bender,8229.html

Re: D11 New Project
Great build looking at it you would think it's the real thing until you see something in the background that let's you know it's a scale model
