I did some "temp" firgelli hook up to be able to use at Cabin Fever . As it turns out I may be able to get the firgellis to werk for the 6 way blade function . We'll see Here's a vid my lil girl took while I did some grading ( hate not having the 6 way functioning )

A lil slot in adjuster and a set screw to keep the front idlers straight.

Thanks Joe , I'm getting there . The big guy (TD40) goin back on the bench with it . I'm just figuring out the planetaries for the finals now that I know where I can get the parts (thanks Cooper) . Haven't seen you around in awhile

I found out you can't doo any welding in model with sabertooth in model so all the prep for cabin fever was for naught .

Steve-I was going to ask you if there was any video of your dozer working at Cabin Fever but I guess this answers my question. I Would like to see more of this model.

Wow Steve!! Those cylinders look darn good, lot of time in them. Do you add a oring into screw on cap and just compression fit it. I never thought of making them like that. I may have to do that as long as I can get a little better at cutting inside threads.
