I love looking at this thread every time there is an update. This is just like eye candy. The dash looks great and very clean. I do have to ask though, what did you use for the pedals or did you mill the ribs into the brass?

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

I couldn´t find any ribbed plate, so I had to mill the pedals from 1mm thick brass.

Hi guys, just got my internet connection up and running, my modem was broken:mad: It took me almost a week to get it working:o

During the past week I got the hydraulics working, and made few driving videos.
I will uppload those soon:)

Wow, 8 servos, i have 3 in my excavator! :) Looks great as always!

Looking forward to see the videos!

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

That hydraulic system is mind boggling to me. Must be confusing making sure the correct tube goes where it's supposed to go. If you didn't already say in the past may I ask; What motors are you using? Reduction? RPM? torque output?

Here are the videos:):

So badass! Here's an idea I've been thinking of. Using a helicopter gyro to automatically level the blade no matter the angle of the ground/tires? One less thing to operate on that beast!

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

Even the dashboard looks amazing! Wow. Nice job on plumbing up the hydraulic lines! If I could pick a build of the year, this would be it!

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

I really like how fluid your 14m controls are when she comes to life and the footprints in the sand are pretty cool also. You nailed it... Very nicely done!

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

crazy good work their Sir! I will own a mill and lathe one day and with enough practice I hope to pull off a build 1/16 as cool as yours!

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

Grader looks great with the steering working. Sound unit in it also sounds very good and clear. Now all we need is some sand or dirt along with paint and you will have one very amazing project.

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

Just looked through the wholr build and this thing is amazing! Your skill is off the charts very nice work! Ill be watching this build for sure.

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

Just awesome, looks like its almost ready for the gps setup! Lol, are you going to add rippers to it at anytime? Looks like you don't have to worry to much about the front end being pushed out by the all wheel drivin rear! Great job!!

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

I had to get a new radio gear to get all the function work, so I went and bought this Graupner 12 channel radio. Those 12 channel will just be enough, but I can´t add any more functions like the ripper. I still have to add two more switches and the I can operate everything. Those self centering switches are quite handy to operate the hydraulic valves.

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

I began to tear down the grader for painting, here´s some parts that are ready for primer :)

Re: CAT 14M Motor Grader
 

Not much to report here, I´ve been slowly painting some parts.
I have never liked painting:mad:, but now I bought a small spray booth which makes it a little easier.:)
