Hey Joe The D8R is up North working, should see some video's at some point.

Neil I use 18 volt for the drive motor's, you could use 12. I like the speed of the 18 volt when backing up the machine. It is to fast to go wide open blading though..
Attached is some new video as the weather is finally warming up and less rain..

Thank's Greg, I'm not a speed demon when it come's to dozer's. I've had to put up with worn out Cat D6R's at work, 3rd gear with worn out chain's, sound's awful! And I'm just sitting in my dumptruck, waiting for them to push off a lift.
Later, Neil#2 aka doodlebug.

Great videos Greg. The excavator digging below/under itself looks cool.

The dozer is very pleasing to watch in operation. I wish I had the time to build one of those someday.

Hey Greg,
Can you tell me what pump you have in your excavator as it looks much faster than the pump I have in the Wedico excavator. I think I should change mine to have it operate at a more realistic speed.
Thanks Paul

Thanks for all the comments guys
Paul: I do enjoy the speed of my excavator, between the hyd and the swing speed it is alot of fun to operate.
As far as the hyd, I use a liembach 450ml pump as I am almost always moving at least two functions at a time. ( stick/boom or stick/bucket ) Need to move as much oil as possible, also I use the 2.5 size hyd line to also help move the oil.
cheers
greg

Thanks Greg,
Is this the standard pump in the Wedico models? As I know they use the Liembach pump and valve equipment.

Looks like you need a Euclid to help build some more road.

You really got a good pack pounding out that grade last wk with the dozer to get around as well as you did with the KH on smooth grips.

It sure has been ugly here too, haven't turned a wheel in two wks & it was raining again today... all day.

RCP57: Could alway use some help moving dirt.lol
Snochaser: The truck is my logging truck with the rigging off, the low bed trailer has been in the fleet for a while, it is alittle light on the construction so it will surely break in half one day..
Lil G: The dirt is wet and heavy due to the rain showers almost everyday..

Here is a yarding video, I was surprised that I could still operate it...lol

Hey Greg, I was wondering where do you get the track drive chain from? I spoke to western equipment in vic and although it's expensive they can get it but it will take 6 weeks. Apparently their supplier makes it up per order and sells it by the foot. I need at least 5-6 feet and would like it yesterday... I know it's my fault for not planning ahead but you know how it is...

Thanks Reg
