That's quite impressive Papy. Where did you get the turntable gear from?

Re: Bucyrus 88-B shovel
 

I could not find one at a reasonnable price, so I made it by myself....long process, but nothing really complicated....

Those tracks are beautiful! I'm in the design stages of a 22B and I'm not looking forward to making the pads and they are waaayy less complex than yours. Thanks for the pictures!

Hi Papy, Good idea building a truck alongside. You really will have something to play with and make everybody, including me, very jealous when finished. Is the truck a Euc. It looks very business like.

Wow! Your tracks and drive wheels look like jewelry.

VERY nice work.
