Dragline Crawler Build

Lou,

Thanks for the tips. My parts might be here Monday so I can see how stuff fits. If I'm lucky I might be able to use what I ordered.

Got a bit more done today. Actually took some video trying to dig wet sand but it sticks in the bucket so bad it wasn't worth posting. Besides, I don't have the tracks moving yet anyhow I just wanted to see how it looked digging, sitting on the new undercarriage!

These are shots of the threaded bushing that inserts into the hole in the cab. The hollow stud is an old 1/2-13 bolt that I bored to run the wires from the slip ring.









Maybe I can dry out some sand Sunday and post a digging video...
