Default Re: Logging & Construction Equipment

Thanks Steve really helpful .I have looked at alot of different pics and had not seen how they had it built .I did some adjustments to the cylinder placement and that helped alot ..I am still going to add some braces..I am going to have to be very careful when ejecting as to make sure the apron is fully open ..the ejector cylinder is very strong and bends components when they are in the Way ..

thanks Ed and Steve ..this has been a really fun build so far ..i have learned alot about the different models and sizes..lots to look out for ..this wont be exact to any specific model tho ..Mostly a 637G

Thanks tom..I think this has to be one of the most difficult builds to plan out ..that was one of the reasons i chose a Duel engine so I could make a bit more room ..A single engine would of been a nightmare ..lol Batteries will fit in the Rear and with careful wiring and fabrication I will be able to have a free Cab with room for an operator

No prob Lou, Steve got me into buying parts books . They really help on parts you can't see from pics . The scraper is 1 of the toughest to build. 2 other come to mind, 6 way blade and rubber tired backhoe .
