Re: SCALE LOADS
Looks really nice, was it expensive with the shipping? All the little detail is the hard part and also makes the look.

Well, I'm on a mission from God to try and do a motor refit on the little Oliver dozer in time for Brownsville. Just got started on it yesterday so that gives me about 10 days or so to work on it.

Steve,
Thanks for the tips! I was able to lightly clamp the assembly in the drill vise and then tighten the screws. This seems to allow it to stay flat enough to satisfy me for now.

I'll try that. I might try and put a slight cone shape on the face ends of the spacers so only the outer diameter touches the bar stock. I guess I could set the spacers on the surface plate and try...

They wrap around pretty good, I am hopeful that they might work better than the old style I tried first.

Jared,
Ya, you are spot on! Problem is, to do them any wider I will have to move the frame rail out and that changes everything else down there. So for testing, I'm going with it as is. If I...

Re: DAF torpedo front truck and front steer truck
Very interesting!
About the resin, is it a single component? Not two parts with hardener? How long or how slow does it finally get hard to sanding stage?
Thanks for all the info!

Re: Caterpillar 990H - 1:14.5
Are the tires cast in one part or two? Two, then glued together?

Re: Ny-Lint Mobile Dragline Conversion
Tom, thanks for the picture. Do you know what brand or age the machine is? I'm curious about when or why they decide to use various style lugs and drive tumblers.
