Re: Bucyrus 495 hr

Re: DRAGLINE FOR SALE-VERY CHEAP

Re: DRAGLINE FOR SALE-VERY CHEAP
Hi frizzen-all you have to do is plug it into the wall. All motors have power supplies in the control box that regulates everything to 12 volts DC and low amps. I did that for safety.

I have a model dragline that I no longer have a use for and I will GIVE it to someone who is willing to come to my house and pick it up. It is NOT a scale model, just something I made to play with my...

Re: P&H 2800 Electric Rope Shovel
Tyler-that looks great! Your dipper door looks like it is heavy enough to latch itself. The machine must have been made by someone who knows these shovels very well.

Tyler-Could you please post some close-up pictures of you dipper and door. I think I have some more build pictures of my shovel on a flash drive if I can find it.

Re: P&H 2800 Electric Rope Shovel
Those joysticks you have will work but I think it will be complicated. 9W may be able to walk you thru this since he has a real set of controls working his model dragline.

Re: Great Dane excavating co.
I like the cat video-do you have any video of your trommel working at Cabin Fever? Surely at this fantastic event someone has more video than what has been posted.

Site Problems
For me the htpps works as far as quick loading but when I login and go to a thread I click it I am automatically logged out. Does anyone else have this problem or know what I am doing wrong?

Re: Euclid R-62 dump truck
Great project-this will be fun to watch. Good to see scratch building happening again on this site. If this is any where near the quality of your cranes it will be spectacular!!

Wow cooper-great job. The machines look amazing. Are you selling one or was you just having so much fun building that you could not stop with one. :D Looking forward to the video.

Re: Great Dane excavating co.
Nice work Cooper-when I saw the first pics of the loader I thought it was huge but I didn't realize how big your truck was. Looks like they go together perfectly. Good job.
