Re: Cabin Fever 2017
I am here and the dirt looks great!
We set up some really nice roads to run the road trucks on. We'll have a blast making the dirt roads tomorrow. |

Re: Cabin Fever 2017
I made up some parts last night to bypass the shredded planetaries in the TD40 ,so I may be using it any way even with a lil loss of power . It's nice having the shop close to the show . :D

I hope we get a good turnout this year because the miniature model engine builders and model train builders are dying off and the younger generation is not replacing them so, rc construction is really the only chance that Cabin Fever has of still being around in the next 5 to 10 years. |
Re: Cabin Fever 2017
Missing it again this year. Just got back from traveling. Can't wait to see pictures.

It sure would be nice if they could get some screened top soil even if they charged a couple dollars to all that attend it would be a lot nicer to work with and a lot easier on some of the models. Ed

Well my first time at Cabin Fever expo and I'm hooked!! It was nice to meet everyone and to reconnect with an old R/C buddy. Going back tomorrow for some more fun.
Here's some pic's from today's fun. Thanks to Bo, and Setti for allowing me to run some trucks. |
Re: Cabin Fever 2017
The pleasure was all ours to have you Scott, what awesome day meeting great people.
Your pictures didn't show for some reason. "May be just me" |

Re: Cabin Fever 2017
Ya, I actually tried to post a few and got a error, let me try again. But, I don't really have the "good pictures" I'm sure the other guys have some good pics and videos.
This is the north side of Pittsburgh on my way out Wednesday. http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...psaokoxyfz.jpg This is the mountains just coming into Harrisburg. The Appilachian Trail is there someplace. http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...pshf4lggrw.jpg This is a taco pizza from A&M pizza on Wednesday nite. Walking distance from the holiday inn express. http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9bzlj43j.jpg And finally we get to some machine photos! This is the inside of the 9W primary wire block that got pulled loose on Saturday. Got it running after some troubleshooting. http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...ps6wm0sprs.jpg Crowd and a few operators on the south side. http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...psjm2hy2tw.jpg Other side and, another view. This was Saturday. http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...psj0epbmst.jpg http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...psb7elsmcb.jpg Before shot of the dirt pile. http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...psp3ert594.jpg Had to get a shot of this little model lock system. Much smaller than mine at home. http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...pstyqyfruh.jpg |

Re: Cabin Fever 2017
What a great show! Great dirt, great turnout, even greater builds. I wish we could have 2 meets like this a year instead of just one. Thanks everyone.

Re: Cabin Fever 2017
Wish I could have stayed Sunday but it was a good call for me to head back to Des Moines. We are covered in ice today!
Here is a short video of my takeoff Sunday morning. Thanks to Bo and Steve for hauling me around! http://youtu.be/GL5Hj1DPZ5U Jim |

Re: Cabin Fever 2017
Administrators, Could someone move the photos and videos and start a new thread from the show?
That would make it easier for people to find since there's so many posts already on this thread. |

Re: Cabin Fever 2017
just wanted to say it was a great event this year!! and enjoyed seeing and meeting all of you, typical of myself if I forget a name or forum handle sorry, for those that know me I'm usually on a one track mind :) at least this year I did operate something other than the dozer!!! had a blast and possibly meet up with some of you over the upcoming summertime!! I didn't take one picture during the weekend and sunday I forgot to eat something!! its pretty easy to get preoccupied with running stuff and talking to folks !!

Re: Cabin Fever 2017
Thank You all for a Fantastic Cabin Fever Expo Event 2017. In my mind the best so far. It was great to se all of you New and Old Friends. A ton of fun to watch the Young Girls and Boys driving and digging the giant dirt pile. Fantastic Kids. And no lack of interest from the older crowd to shape the event to such success. I'm sure we had a lot over 100 units in the layout........maybe closer to 200 i lost count. I'm looking forward to meet you all again. Together we can move a mountain or two ;o)
Thank You. BO |
Re: Cabin Fever 2017

Re: Cabin Fever 2017
I am ready for next year’s show!
Finally I installed a real RC control on my truck, thus no more cables in the way! I bought a very simple 2 channel system, batteries and a speed control and I put it all in a box, which I can move around to other vehicles if needed. I am not very good with electronics, but I got it to work! I hope to also use this set up for my cranes. https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/341/32...444dce53_b.jpg https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/591/32...b11ca0d6_b.jpg https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/324/32...45a58b14_b.jpg Kerst |
