looking really good cant wait to see it painted. how are you going to make it dump? hydraulics or screw drive?

Re: Magirus 6x6 German tipper from the 1950s
 

Hi,

screw drive, i have a new idea to do it, motor in the back and the screw under the dumping body, not in the frame. I think this will be more powerful.

Hello all,

8mm threaded rod for the scrwe drive, lathed one side to 4 and the other to 5mm. To avoid damage of the screw, i used two hex nuts in the lathe.

In this picture, there is only a 5mm screw drive, but its able to lift a 6 kg hammer laying in the front of the dumping body-
