Default my dozer build

Hi all.. This is my first post. Not having some of the fantastic skills some of you guys have I have always wanted to have a go at a scratch build and not being in a position to purchase an all metal model I decided to give it a go... No access to CNC mill or even a power hacksaw I'm using basic hand tool's.

I have not modeled this on any particular Dozer just a mix of the bits I like although it does look D11 ish unfortunately I do not know anything about hydraulics so this is being powered by two geared 24volt 450watt motors with a secondary reduction.. Not sure what scale this would be but its big (1300mm) long and the weight will be around the 90/100 kg.. Blade is 820mm in width, I'm hoping it fits in my van

Thanks guys.. Col
