Ben your brass work is absolutely amazing. The frame on that loader looks like it all just fell right together. I cant wait to see some more progress work on it and some vid's. It's kinda hard for me to tell but how large is the loader compared to a Tamiya truck? Looks pretty good size from what I can tell so far.

About a month or so Reg. I think you figured out where the wheels will be coming from.

Thanks Tyler. It'll be bigger than my 963B. I'll set it side by side with a truck and the loader in a future picture for reference.

Hey hey hey. You're really letting the CAT out of the bag Mr..

Woodhog- I used my bandsaw, dermal and a pilot bearing router bit to do a lot of the trimming. It got a little spicy at times with the router.
