Nice video!! To me the truck operation is very realistic which is what I really like. I think a lot of people operate their models too fast and that makes it look like a toy. This looks like the real deal to me. Nice job. I'm ready for that front shovel.

Thanks!!! Trying to make something this small look like it's really big is hard to do in the vids....the tall grass and the rough ground tends to give it away...LOL...
The face shovel is in the works.....I will be ordering the hyd. cylinders and such this week....but it is far from finished,in fact it is hardly started yet. I have a number of drawings done but not many parts cut out....still designing it.

Uploaded another landscaping video today.....

Ya, very nice! A little weathering and dust on that thing, build a bit of a road to look like a quarry and you will be very close to the real thing in your videos.

Thanks for sharing, looks like a lot of fun!

A few more pics....the lawnmower helps in getting a good size comparison...a PC1800 is really big machine compared to the 777....and to think I thought of building a PC3000.....yikes that would be huge!!!








Thanks for looking........
