What would something like this cost to have built?

Re: CAT 14M3 Motor Grader
 

It's been a long time. I was wondering if there are any updates on project, did you complete it? I watch your latest video almost every day. I wonder if you still have a chance to upload a new video?
Thank you.

It's basically ready, but I've been struggling to get everything work with my old radio. I just received a new 18 ch Flysky radio that should have enough channels :)

I have one unused hydraulic valve on the grader, so I decided to start making a ripper to the rear:)

how's that paladin radio working out? i wanted to get one but ended up adding 4d sticks to my taranis 9e

Re: CAT 14M3 Motor Grader
 

No complains on the radio, easy to set up and feels sturdy. I really like those side levers, that I use to lift left and right side of the blade on the grader.

Re: CAT 14M3 Motor Grader
 

Sounds like you've had some stick time on the grader, where's the videos?! :D

Re: CAT 14M3 Motor Grader
 

I still have some electronic updates to do. Also while setting up the radio, I found a leak on the blade side shift cylinder hose. I most likely have to change the hole hose, and of course, that's the most hardest one change.

Are you using sheet metal option in Fusion 360 to design these parts?

Re: CAT 14M3 Motor Grader
 

Yes I am.

Re: CAT 14M3 Motor Grader
 

I welded some parts together for the ripper.

Those parts are looking awesome! Very nice!

Re: CAT 14M3 Motor Grader
 

This project is nuts, it just keeps getting more awesome!

Plus that's some pretty sweet looking low profile Tig work.

I've got to second Lil Giants question. Videos?

Re: CAT 14M3 Motor Grader
 

I got the ripper teeth holders done and welded. I also started to make the teeth bodies, the tooth tip is a separate piece.

Re: CAT 14M3 Motor Grader
 

Beautiful work as always. Are you using a filler wire on your welds or just doing a series of spot welds?
