Clyde , the bail Is 4" from center of pin to loop . The push blocks are 3.5" high on the rear and the front push plate goes from 3" to 4" of push area . I have to move my tow hooks back a .5" for the bail to work . If I made the bail longer it would have looked way out of scale . the tow hook could be off do to not having good pics to go off of .

thank you Joe , I know what you mean about getting close to scale I'm working on all the details now and crowd/ejector . I have the barrels made for the crowd cylinders just got to get these wheels off the lathe so I can make the rest . Have you ever been close enough to 1 ( can be a cat 627 637 ) to see in the bowl ? is there any grove or track on the floor for the crowd /ejector ? my parts book only shows the 1's on the side for the side roller . I could ask an old customer about looking at his but I think he has them in the marcelus shale (gas) field making rig roads

IHSteve

[dirtpusher9]

Steve, the only thing I've ever seen is the 2 runners on the floor for the crowd carry rollers to run on. I made mine out of stainless steel strips so they would wear better (like their going to get a lot of use). Are you case hardening your cutting edges and side bits?

[ihbuilder]

I got to make them but I think I'll chew the tires apart before I wear a cutter out , but wouldn't hurt though

Hi Steve, looking good scrapers, why make only one.
Looked thrue my photos of 463, here´s one pics showing the roller and a strip on floor

Dan

[ihbuilder]

Guess I have to build a DW20 and rebuild the 463 when my D8 is operational!

LOL I never saw a pull pan being pushed . I'd love to see that 8 moving

I kinda improvised for the crowd/ejector but it'll do . Still have to make the top roller & track


got my rod and barrel material to day and just ordered the seals next is pump , valves and elec. oh the links are for an upcoming build this winter just planning and collecting right now


some progress pics . BTW the rear stack is supposed to be black brown for a sooty/rusty look not perfect but I'll work on it





enjoy

Have you come up with a bullet proof tranny yet? I was reading on a earlier post about two speeds and what came to mind was a two speed motor. I was scrounging around on my motor shelf looking for a motor on my boom hoist and found one that had two windings. Only problem with yours is you need super power in low.

[ihbuilder]

Steve ,I plan on building 4 2 speeds this winter after cabin fever . I have a good loading speed right now which will work for shows and meets . when I'll need the high range will be in the 1:14 scale working garden railway where I can get some good scale working area . With 10 acres I can build 1 heck of a lay out that will keep expanding forever could even put a coal stripping in it
