Awesome

It's very good looking, and it seems to operate very well.

Thumbs up Re: 140H Grader

What a great model - looks, operation, detail - all just awesome. I'd never believe it started life as a tree! Wood is such an unexpected medium for a working machine, but when done so well, who'd a thunk it!

Kudos for such a wonderful project!

Ken

The Cat Personnel have been very supportive. The want to put a write-up in the compnay news letter. I am also planning a trip to the 14M factory down in Little Rock, which is about 2 hrs from me. I think that will be exciting.

It's time to start the testing phase. I noticed the discussion about the blade and the circle board being able to hold. Mine will have to cut loose dirt....as i used the same setup on the worm gear.....only difference is my box is made of wood. When i find me another machinest, i will get the gearbox made correctly.
