Re: What's everyone been working on?
When I bought the 362, I had the dealer take the 20" bar and put a 18" on. Didn't think I need such a long bar. If I need big stuff cut, I call my sons buddy who usually carries three saws with him...

Re: Bucyrus 495 hr
Looking at my 1:50 model it appears that the two hoist ropes attach to the hoist drums (One continuous Rope) for each side. The two sheaves on the dipper bail just equalize the rope back to the...

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
