I don't have any 24M picture's, just the ugly duckling that I'm scratch building. Not pretty, but will do the job when finished. No CAD (cardboard aided design)
Cheer's, Neil.

I have just read this thread from start to end in amazement at the talent and dedication put into this model
but I look at my model then look at this one and feel like a cave man who just made his first stone wheel very proud of my wheel but can lonely dream of what I would build with just a quarter of mpe's talent and skill!
amazing

This isnt the best picture but it does shows where the parts will all go once the neck comes back for the machine shop.
They said in about 3 weeks. So until then this is all I have for now.

Cool Re: MPE – 24M Motor Grader Build

Great workmen ship MPE.

When you finish making 24M Motor Grader, and you want to start selling them as a Rc kit, I would buy on for sure,

While I am waiting for the neck to come back form the machine shop I thought that I would post some pictures of a few of the parts that will get bolted to it.

Here are the support gussets and lower neck plate that helps support the front axle assembly and ties everything together.
