Hopefully I'll be able to load trucks ok with the stock unit hoe setup without all of the dirt falling out before I get the bucket over the truck, lol. Even of I can just dig ditches with it, it should be a blast to run.

AND you didn't send it to me. Just kidding.

I would like to send a BIG THANKS out to Greg (RCLogger) for helping me find the aluminum molding to make the track pads out of! I ordered it out of a place in Minnesota called (www.eaglemouldingsinc.com) . Thanks Greg! The guy who took the order (sounded like the owner) was asking so many questions about what I was building that he looked through my you-tube videos while I was on the phone. maybe He'll show up here sometime.
