Talking Cat Excavator Updated With Boom And Arm!!!

Well there have been several people that have been hounding me to show the start of my build so I decided to take a few photo's of my progress so far today and let you all see where I'm coming from. I don't have any before photo's but of course we all have seen a stock Bruder by now. Anyways I'll let a few of the pics do the talking.

The start of the drive tracks.



New drive hubs that will be capped off with the center acting as a wheel nut.



Back of the drive hubs.



Now we all know what the back of the excavator looks like right?



But once it's filled with lead it becomes a great counter weight for the boom.



Did anyone say they needed to dig at night? If so I should be able to help lol.



Now the start of my new rams on the arm.



And a quick video of the first testing.



Thanks for looking and hope to be able to make some progress on it this week and possibly get it rolling.
