Default Re: Clamshell Bucket Build

Jim-I agree the clam looks a bit large for the scale but whatever you can make work. The larger clam will be more efficient loading. Is that a 1/50 scale truck you are loading? I agree with Joe. It needs to open wider and adding weight should make it dig better. You may need to add counterweight to the dragline. Your getting there. Are you having fun!!!
