Steve it's going good over there..........Carry on Please

Lil Giants · #45 03-16-2016, 09:04 PM

Looking good Steve!

Any plans to make a wider wishbone to move tracks away from body?

ihbuilder · #46 03-19-2016, 04:02 PM

Joe, the track frames will stay where they are . On the real machine the track pads are off set on the chains . I plan to mill new tracks in the future. They're designed and programmed . It's just a matter of devoting the mill time

.

Finally got all the cylinder parts done

well I still need to mill the tear drop on the pins yet . Also need to move the angle cylinder bosses out on the blade

.

Looks like you have put a lot of hours in this model steve, but it will be well worth it. Great job.

How much offset?

Lmk when you decide to do the links, I might be interested in helping you offset your costs by getting a set.

Move the pad out by 1 hole on the link . I could do it with these ,I just need to drill 2 more holes per pad . I'll keep you in mind .

ihbuilder · #52 08-28-2016, 07:02 PM

Cooper · #53 08-28-2016, 08:03 PM

Dang!! Lots of hoses n fittings!! Looks pretty cool!!!

modelman · #54 08-31-2016, 12:33 PM

Steve-the dozer is looking good. Seems like a complicated build to me but probably not for a machinist like you. Nice work!

I have a quick question for you! When soldering on the rams does that effect the internals?? I was told if u heat them up they have to be re-honned?

How the heck to take a video while operating a 6 way blade dozer

No I cant afford 1 of them gopro thingys y'all got

. Yea the 3 thing I was dooing while running between lathe and mill yesterday , gettin this running proper and leak free

. I had a chance to fill in the hole that always seems to appear at the man door to the shop after awhile . Now for the finishing touches and paint

ihbuilder · #58 10-11-2016, 09:53 PM

New hood ,from mill machine to finished painted part and grill . All the black painted except the blade (need sandblasting ) . Gps poles made . And a comparison pic of the td40 next to the 6

Took me 3 tries to post this

the Internet is so screwed up . We paid for faster and better upgrade and its werse

then to try to get an actual person to talk to , takes more time then my patience can handle . Well , phone werks

Claus · #59 10-11-2016, 10:59 PM

Wow that's impressive! Hard to see an Izzy dozer in there.

Lil Giants · #60 10-12-2016, 12:22 AM

The Dresser looks like it's in a different scale!

Beautiful work on the D6
