Dragline Rebuild

[modelman]

I have had this project started a long time (I work slow) and I'm not sure when it will be finished but I work a little every day. The drag controller will be replaced with a variac control that plugs into 110 v. ac. I will probably use the swing & hoist joystick that I made until I can get an electronic joystick. Starting the teardown-

The swing motor has already been removed in this picture-

Next I have to turn the base over and remove the bearings that hold the swing rotation plate. I am working on the new swing gearcase and I will post more later.
