Matt the prosthetic setup is AWESOME!! You say you just got into machining two winters ago? I'm thinking you can definitely make a gear pump! (other thread). Joe

Thanks Joe,

Yeah, I bought every Swarf rat video they had and spent days on the net, and taught myself. The first thing I built was the wrist, of course it took two years to get it right, and the second thing I did was make stuff for the CNC conversions. Few trys there too!

I don't know if maybe I shouldn't start out making a cable dozer first or something instead of Hyd.

I run a portable Rock crushing spread at work that takes about 15 semi trips to move. I've offen thought of starting at the Primary jaw crusher and Modeling the whole spread 1 piece at a time. Its mostly all run by electric motors, so RC/ing it wouldn't be bad. And I know it like the back of my hand........."the right one".......LOL

Matt, What a great hideaway you have there. That crusher would be a neat project. I like that Whitetail too! Fred

Thanks Fred,

I'm still looking for possible projects, haven't settled on any yet. I like the older iron too, and have been looking into some old cable dozer's, scrapers, and drag lines.

Looking for some info on them also.

a small screening plant would be cool
then the trucks could dump in a hopper for you to screen and other trucks could haul it off to use as road base gardens etc
then you would need a trailer office and a maintance shed and and lol

doing great for only 2 years better than my 25 years

have fun
