Default Bruder Conveyor

With all the talk about conveyors i got the itch to convert a bruder conveyor, so between waiting on my truck body and getting my trailer in working order, this is what i have.

Its still really slow but i just have to put on a new gear and i will get those on later.











Here is a video of it functioning, I know I know, its slow, ill get that worked out


Thanks for looking,
J.D.

JD, it works great. About the only improvement I would make is to tip the rear of the hopper up more to improve the flow on the belt. Speed is about perfect with a full belt.

J.D.,

What is the black material you are running on the conveyer? Looks like scale coal, which is sort of what I'm after.

Cool, that is even better than I had hoped for, since it would be waterproof!
