Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

My new dozer arrived yesterday! Within minutes of removing from box I was pushing dirt in the yard and just amazed! I spent too long working with and seeing what I can do with conversion plastic dozers but now I know what moving dirt is really all about. Big smile on my face needless to say:D
To be honest, right away I thought about a proper cat yellow coat of paint is in order this winter but already at day two and I'm starting to like the white , rough and tough look of it :):bounce:

I have a few of these cat logos collected from scrapped parts and noticed tonight how proper they look and suit the dozer.... Sorry Izzy, I mean no disrespect, not trying to cover or hide the builder of this beast but the moment I realized how well these logos fit....I just had to put them on:D

Also now equipped with a servonaut smt sound unit.:) videos coming soon ! :D

Guess I am coming around finally. But not the black Pete! That's staying shiny and clean:D

Couldn't be happier with the look and performance of the dozer. I can see myself having fun for years to come.:)

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

Well folks, it's official and I can breathe a sigh of relief judging by all the smiles and laughter going on in Foxville I'd say everyone loves it:)

Nice stuff Mario! Dozers and lowboys are always cool. Ain't no way I could get your black Pete dirty either.

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

Mario-

Great pics of the action. Looks like a good turn-out. Alex (DieselKid) and I will have to make the trip up there someday after I've completed my recovery. Till then enjoy and keep posting.

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

I have to agree with the black Pete staying clean and unscathed! The turnout looks great and so does Foxville. Didn't know you had trains too must have missed that one. Hope to make it next year.

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

Actually, the trains ,figurines ,train station and 60ft of rail with a switch were brought by a forum member Mikem. Hey made a 9hr drive to join us. Also brought his 3 beautiful trucks including the Mack.:cool:
Within an hour he had it laid out and running from the pit to the pile.
I was instantly amazed at what an effect adding just a simple stretch of track and trains does for the yard! :jaw:

It's a done deal! I must have a train and Mike is gracious enough he's going to guide and help me out:D. I'm hooked!


Here's a video of everyone gathered in the yard.

being the very first time doing something like this the turn out was perfect. I got a good feel for how well the yard does or doesn't function with all the traffic. ( IE , light pole incident. Which was absolutely not staged. He did it, we froze the scene and then brought in the cops and driver. )
Learned a lot for next year and got all kinds of great ideas from everyone:) I'm gonna be busy.:D

that looks awesome, im now going to convince the wife.... we need to relocate so I can play with my toys properly,
Love the accident, nicely shut down the accident scene for a future prosecution ( may I suggest , paid in beers)
more picts for us that couldn't attend

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

it looks like you guys had an awesome day. Which scale is that train?

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

sweet turn out Mario!! I know 3 guys are bummed out about missing out

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

If that was the only accident you had, you had a very good bunch of drivers up there! Normally, lots of the 'extras' get moved at Indy or any of the other meets we have. Too much speed, distracted drivers, and/or inexperienced operators are to blame. Not paying attention also doesn't help.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Looks like you had a great time. Hope to make it up to your place one of these times.

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

awesome how many machine did you have total had lots of tratckers

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

Looks like you had a good turnout! The train running through the yard is the icing on the cake :D How did the low boys due driving around ?

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

Oh forgot to say congrats on the dozer Mario! It went to a good home. Going to have some fun :cool:

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

The scale of the trains is 1:13.7

Re: S&M construction open for bizz nizz!
 

Any modern NS power in that scale mike?
