Re: 1/16 Bucyrus-Monighan Walking Dragline
We got the 9W out of my trailer to get it ready for Cabin Fever Expo and I was surprised how bad it looked from the past few outings. Seems it rained every time I took it out or the humidity was so bad everything got rusty. I kept spraying the steel parts with WD40 over the years but obviously not on ALL areas.
I made the decision to dismantle the machine completely and do some much needed sandblasting and painting. I am also going to get the clutch working that shifts the drag mode to walking mode. Hopefully I can get the wiring done at the control console to make the shift.
