Re: Logging & Construction Equipment
Wow, that actuator is so smooth and quiet, and I think you did a great job on the design of that scissors lift mechanism. In my opinion, it's a nicer way to go than the screw drives. The lifting speed is more constant throughout the range of travel. Screw drives all seem to suffer from the jack rabbit start, and then putter out at the end of the stroke, but this takes care of that problem!

Re: Logging & Construction Equipment
That's a pretty nice screening set up!! And your post on the dump body actuators changed my planning phase on a dump build I'm doing. I was doing a similar lift but going hydro. After watching your video and looking up the actuators I am now going that route. So much simpler than all that hydraulic parts to find places to hide. Thanks!!

Re: Logging & Construction Equipment
This years show will be a blast ..pretty soon I wont have any more room and will have to be pulling a trailer ..the plant takes up a lot of space so hoping to have room for it ..time to stop building ..NOT !!! ..lol ..Thanks cooper ..I did see a few hoist photos on the net that gave me a few Ideas ..Once the drawing was on Cad I knew it would fold up properly ..It was only a guess as to how much it needed to push out and I got lucky the first time .If you wanted to get creative you could pair them up to gain some more power ..Ian has some 6volt that will plug directly into the receiver .Im not sure if the torque rating is the same ..They do have a toll free # to call if you want to ask more questions ..Im sure Ian would be pleased to yak at you ..The ones I am using are 12 volt ..The set up is around 1 inch thick so it would not struggle too much to start its lift and with the way Reg designed these boxes the floor is slightley raised to alow for a dump mechanizam...Great Job Reg ..Even your tail gate latch will be simple to fasten ..Im going to just copy that for the other box ..let me know if you have any questions Cooper well heres a few pics i promised

Re: Logging & Construction Equipment
That setup looks awesome Lou! I almost have the Volvo back up and running so you may want to speed up those conveyors.
If we can camp at the show my plan is to tow our cargo trailer. That way I can bring all of my stuff and it should still have some extra space for the rest of you guys to store some stuff at night. If we bring our campers and all of our models we will be sleeping out on the ground so that our toys stay safe inside for the night!lol My Kenworth will take up the whole floor of our camper.... Have you found out any more about that situation yet Lou? |

Re: Logging & Construction Equipment
Lou, nice work! I like the fact that's not only a totally functional trommel, but it's also a great load for the trucks to haul around. It looks great all set up and running, but it also looks nice hooked to the 5th wheel plate on your Pacific. Great videos too!
