Hey Jim-Steve probably would not want this in his trailer. Next to his masterpiece my model would look like something built in a junk yard by a 10-year old. My drag does not have a walking system b/c I have no where to walk it and it also does not have a slip ring b/c I can only swing about 15-20° in my small pit. The machine is capable of full circle swings but not without a slip ring. This might make a good project for someone who would like to upgrade it with modern gear motors, slip ring, walking system, longer boom etc., all of which I intended to do but old age got me and now I am unable. My eyes are too bad.
