IHbuilder-that looks really good! With it sitting on that trailer you can see the size of that "brute". Should be a "diggin" machine!!

[td9clyde]

thanks Tom . I'm hopping it will work like the real one . as is now it'll spin the wheels in the tires . I finally got the right size bar to make the wheels so I'll oversize the bead a little than stuff them . for size it's between a 627 and 637 cat . If you ever see a 627 on a trailer thats about what it looks like . But I think they have the 4th axle down .

1 more size 60 the pads will be 2" wide the same on my td8 wide track but much much bigger just a tad smaller than Joes D9 I will build the td8 also w/a 6 way blade just about got that figured out


IHSteve

[td9clyde]

like size wise? that be a big dozer lol i used number 50 on the terex and i am in the same scale as DP Joe and my pads are 2 inches wide and 5/8's then a 1/4 inch grouser bar on the top 60's would be a lil big for a small dozer wouldn't they?

Clyde ,I plan to build 2 ,the td8e and td40 . The td 8 is 7" pitch which scales to .5 . I think that will be #40 the # 60 is for the TD-40 I've been wanting to do this before the pans but my want to be different over came me and had to do the pan's first this'll be about the size of your 82-30 and a hair smaller then joe's 9 . Hydraulics may slow me down on the pan . with the lack of space hydro's are the best option , can't run it with out them ( steering ) unless I change it ( no way ) the dozer you do not have to have the hydro's to use it . A heavy blade w/ cable up or some screw type mech . hidden to work the blade . All in all I still shooting to get - R - running for winter .

[td9clyde]

Oh lol i missed the TD 40 lol now i follow you yea i went with the 50's and shoulda used the 60's both the 82-30's that i have the hydralic and the cable will get switched over to 60's and new pads lol but any ways to top all the other things i have in the works i been thinkin about another lol but i really need to concentrate on what i have in the works lol

I like the look siiting on the trailer, looks like one going down the road (bounce, bounce, bounce- trailer movement)!

Coming along nicely.

3M 008115 epoxy that stuff is as strong as steel holds the steel to steel great and it hold to fiberglass and plastics great won't come off if it does it would be the first time i have ever seen it happen i used it on car rubber bumper covers and putting body kits on cars if you get it on a 5/16 bolt grade 8 it will snap it off but yea i get what you mean low funds and lots of things you want/ need to get to build things the way you want them

have you tried it rubber to rubber ? but yea , somewhat low funds,time and not coming out the way I want kinda got me turned off it for a little while . right now I'm have some fun on the td40 . basically I can scrounge what I need right in my own yard with the exception of electrics and some gears small enough . all the gears I have are bigger then the dozer

[td9clyde]

yea it should you have to ruff it up real good 60 or 80 grit sand paper and you can glue metal with it instead of welding but it takes like 24 hours to cure and 12 to set up thats at 70 degrees

Can you bake it to speed curing?

[td9clyde]

i wouldn't bake it i would use a heat lamp or something

[ihbuilder]

boy I wish I knew about HE forums when I started these . I found some great pics of these on there , now I know why they just don't seem right looks like a whole rebuild of the goose neck . I got it to wide at the bowl area . I also may reconfigure the motor arrangement , I got to much front hood .

[td9clyde]

don't take it hard i know the feeling lol i had to cut the whole rear quarter outta my terex dozer when i built it and i chopped the whole model in half cuz the front end was too long then on the D 7 it took me 4 tries to get the sweeps bent right thats why i blow the pic up to the scale i want along with other pics and measurements i tried the drawing it out thing with the pete i am pondering on needless to say it was off so i found the cab measurements and pics online and then blew them up now everything is proporsionedout right

All I had was a machinery trader pic and some general info as for yard cap. , so I scaled it off a cat of that size , I was darn close . Thanks to Ken for the e-mail . the whole prob with the build was getting a hold of good 90 deg pics and aireal pics now I get to see them at this stage till I get some O&A for the torch and weeks of rethinking (designing ) they're on the shelf finally got over the downness of that and got deep into the td40 .
