Re: Logging & Construction Equipment

T-n-T-Lou-the pan is coming along really good. I liked the video. Seems like all systems work well. I am wondering if everything is going to fit in the cab, but I'm sure you have all that planned...

Looks really good!! That is a lot of small pcs. I can't see the size of the pins you used but I know they are small. Keep posting pictures.

Cranes don't have much to do with farming but if you are into cranes, check out-kerst's cranes on this forum. He has some amazing models.

Re: Great Dane excavating co.

Cooper-I'm not being picky because this is a GREAT model but the dump looks a bit slow to me. Is this the finished version? However-this will give you time to grab a beer while it is dumping. Will...

Re: Great Dane excavating co.

Re: Ny-Lint Mobile Dragline Conversion

Interesting video jim-I don't have the digital readouts but I can do the same thing with a rotary table. Your way looks more complicated to me. Do you think there is an advantage in using your method?

Re: cat D6T 6 way blade

Steve-the dozer is looking good. Seems like a complicated build to me but probably not for a machinist like you. Nice work!

Re: Another Structo Dump Truck Conversion

Re: Nylint michigan crane conversion, hopefully

Nice to see old rigs like this converted. I think on a machine this size-3rpm would be the maximum you want for swing speed and maybe slower. On a dragline with hi-speed swing you will be slinging...

Re: Ny-Lint Mobile Dragline Conversion

Jim-sometimes these jobs take way more time than expected, but as long as the results are what you want is all that matters. I don't see a problem with the tensioners. Once you get them set, I doubt...

Re: Ny-Lint Mobile Dragline Conversion
