Default Re: 1/16 Bucyrus-Monighan Walking Dragline

Steve-I did see the bucket sliding a little. One thing I found with my dragline is by raising the location of the chain attachment points on the bucket makes a big difference. The teeth on my bucket are not angled down enough either (I didn't know they needed to be) but by playing with all the rigging placements I was able to make it dig. I found very small changes made a big difference in the way it worked but maybe because my model is small.
