Re: Butler Bros Mark 5 logging truck
The front axles are done and the rear ends now have pinion carriers. The material for the leaf springs just arrived.
Now with the good weather it's getting harder to spend time in the shop, that and my dad is volunteering his time at McCleans mill national historic site on weekends. He's running the steam donkey and steam loader for 2 shows a day until september. I will post more pics when I get a chance.

Re: Butler Bros Mark 5 logging truck
Good idea on the weatherstripping foam. You might also try the plastic bb's. They help the tire hold its shape, but still offer some give to grip better. Can be a pain to fill the tire though.

Re: Butler Bros Mark 5 logging truck
Dad got the spring packs and trunion saddles done this weekend. Also narrowed the rear ends 1" to get a more scale look.

Re: Butler Bros Mark 5 logging truck
He's trying for the show but it's too soon in the build to know how things will work out.

Re: Butler Bros Mark 5 logging truck
It's in a glass case along with Hank's other models at a museum in Port Alberni BC. I think Lou might have some pictures of the display but I could be wrong.
