1/16 Bucyrus-Monighan Walking Dragline

[9W Monighan]

Well now that deer season is over for us it's time to get at this boom more. I should have the rest of these tubes cut and notched today and maybe start soldering some more.



Closeup of how the tubes come together. The .040'' plate is notched into the 1/4'' tube then the 3/16'' ones are notched. This is becoming stronger and stronger all the time,the solder shouldn't be stressed as much with this notching.
