nice fleet.. always good to some different color schemes...

Thanks Lenny,

I think the paint was the most difficult of the process. I didn't build the excavator, kinda glad I didn't, because I hate to paint, and somehow find a way to screw something up...

Completely built the little loader, it has about everything you can put on a loader except a two stage bucket and the ripper, which I have, but just haven't installed yet.

Dump Truck is by Lesu, which was already built but I had to paint.

Thanks guy's, yea I have 40 acres, lots of hills, just trying to find the Ideal layout area. It would be nice to have the construction area close to the house, but I have a lot of clay there, so I thought maybe over the hill I have sand, but then I would have to throw the equipment in the 3 point tractor box to carry them over there all the time or the truck.

Great photos! I like how both machines are next to each other to give you an idea of each size.
What's the weight of the track loader? Metal tracks?
Thanks

hehe rent a real machine and you run the sand from over the hill to the house that way you get to play with both lol

Track Loader is not very heavy, I would say 20 lbs, if I am lucky, but it's a very smooth machine with the Laibach, (German), pump and valves. It's very well built. I wish it had Metal tracks to add to the weight but they are a strong plastic track, they still work great, but I need the weight. Have been looking for some metal tracks, found a German company but they won't reply back to me in either German or English?

Yea, I do have three real machines, skid loader, John Deere 440 track Loader John Deere utility tractor, and Large dump truck. Problem is where the house is there are some steep hills to tackle, not sure I want to take the chance of a roll over...
