Must have done something right, a few spots in that vid I could of swore it was the real thing.

Joe, Your outfit looks so real I had to study it to make sure it was a model. You know it would be kinda interesting to have a thread on the best videos of the various builds to be voted on by the participants of the forum. Maybe each member if interested could enter their best video over a period of time and then have all members if interested vote for the best overall. Could be the best of the year or some other time period. Just an idea. Fred

Thanks a bunch guys. Greg, the bar was set long before I ever got into this hobby, just trying too keep up.

Fred, I like your idea, we need more inspiration on here and that might just do it. One of you mods bring that up next board meeting, please.

great job!!!!!!!!!!!! looks like it does the job and looks real and good too how big of a cut are you taking at a time in one pass ? looks like you have plenty of power and traction i am curious how much preshure of a pull it is making and how much it weighs loaded just curious definitly another great build keep up the great work

Tamiya Cowboy · #**170** 10-18-2010, 08:11 AM

Joe that is great it looks like it works perfect just like the dozer does. Looks to be cutting very nice as I am sure it has enuff weight.. Great job another perfect build!

WOW That looks excellent! The lighting really does it justice too. By the way; Are those leaves from some giant prehistoric tree of some sort

dirtpusher9 · #**172** 10-18-2010, 05:43 PM

Thank you guys.

It will cut about a 1/2'' at a time but that is because the cylinder bottoms out. However after today it may get new cylinders that will dig a little deeper.

Been going to try and build some cylinders for about 2 years now, well today I successfully made one and put it on the scraper. The crowd cylinder that I bought was a 6'' stoke and I needed 7'' so I hooked it up and it works really well. I was wanting the crowd to move faster as well so I put a big ram in it and it doubled the speed of the crowd. I'll get better pics up of it all tore down, it is totally rebuildable through the gland end.

td9clyde · #**173** 10-18-2010, 08:23 PM

thats cool i was going to do the same thing on the tilt cylinder for the D7 and 82-30

fhhhstix · #**174** 10-18-2010, 08:55 PM

WOW Joe it doesn't look like you are going to need the push bar on the back of the pan the 9 does a good job of filling it on it's own.

Well joe-you gonna show us how you made the cylinder or is that "top secret".

td9clyde · #**176** 10-18-2010, 10:27 PM

Don't tell anyone Tom.lol

Here is the cylinder all torn down. The bore is 1/2'' and stroke is 7'', with a 5/16'' ram. The material is all from McMaster-carr.

Sorry about the pics being a little fuzzy.

pugs · #**178** 10-19-2010, 03:03 PM

Great looking work

9W Monighan · #**179** 10-19-2010, 03:39 PM

Yes, Very nice machine work Joe. What size threads are on the packing flange?

td9clyde · #**180** 10-19-2010, 06:31 PM

why can't a guy use regular metal like cold / hot rolled steel for what we are doing? and hone them real fine inside?? would it work? i was thinking i would have the inside and stem nickel plated but it would be nice not to have to do all that when boring and honeing would work i mean how much hydralic preshure do they push ?? in psi i know 10 bar or so but i donno what that actually is lol and i know it has to be smooth right? any detailed help would be great

that is one nice pan and cylinder you have built very cool
