Re: MPE – 24M Motor Grader Build
Fantastic build, I know how long it takes for the drawing and programming stage, how long has this project been going.

Re: MPE – 24M Motor Grader Build
Wow, that looks fantastic. Looks like our modeling friends building grader are taking the hobby to another level.
To bad that Santa did not come with a CNC mill last year, guess have to put that higher up on list for coming Christmas. Have been looking at a Optimum M2 but thats a $14.400 investment, a little to much right now. Looking forward to see the progress on this build! Dan |
Re: MPE – 24M Motor Grader Build
You made the tires? I'd be interested in that process if you care to explain.

Actually the tires were molded by a shop. I did the CAD for the tires and than drew up the mold design. The shop made the mold and tires for me. |

Re: MPE – 24M Motor Grader Build
Do you work around a 24m? How did you get all this detail figured out? It looks awesome!
|
Re: MPE – 24M Motor Grader Build
Wow! This grader is amazing. Still trying to get my head around the size of it. The molded-in tire markings make them look real, rather than just large rounds of rubber. What are the dimensions of the tires?
Waiting to see all the pieces come together as a machine. Keep up the great work! Ken |

As for the tires... The diameter is 130.5mm (~5-1/8") x 54mm (~2-1/8") wide. The weight with the aluminum wheel and rubber is 751g (~26.5oz). Once I get the frame together I will give you a scale reference of some sort. |

Re: MPE – 24M Motor Grader Build
MPE, If you were to set a model shop truck along side all your parts, ready to make a pick, I'd be fooled into thinking you were assembling a full size grader. This is going to be a great model, hope to see it completed and at one of the West Coast Toy shows in the future. Fred

Re: MPE – 24M Motor Grader Build

Well not really from one chunk. Actually the entire assembly has 5 parts and a lot of M2 screws. I had designed these parts so the screws are on the bottom so they would not be visible. Take a look... http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u...r/8cb14d23.jpg |
