What will you be using for drive motors on the shovel? I ask this because i once started an excavator abput that size and i still have to wheel chair motors and gear boxes. the type of chair that has two main tires that are controlled much like an excavator. if someone was interested i will trade them for some 1/14 scale trailers yrucks or just boxes of unused extras!!!!

I plan on using the same motors that I used in the 777 , two for the track drives and one for the swing.


I will soon start a build thread on the 1/12 PC1800 front shovel....sorry everyone for being out of touch for a while

Thanks Lou.....yes it is a small hoist/crane...I originally built it to lift the D11 dozer on/off the work bench, turns out I need it more now:eek: because the dozer is just under 100lbs and the truck is just over with the battery...yup they are "chunky" :lol: ( and don't worry about the lift pulling the shelf down it's built chunky too!!! :D ) the lift will really be needed when I build the shovel, the way I build stuff I'm sure it will be "really really chunky":lol:

hello ive just been looking over your build nice job. I'm not trying to tell you what to do but I would like to make a suggestion on your drive train chain. From your vid I could not really see a idler pulley. How ever I did think I seen a bushing. My suggestion is this replace the what appeared to be nylon with bronze this way you can cut a grove for chain to follow in and it will last three times as long almost maintenance free. Bronze is also called oil in pregnanted brass. I hope I have not affended you only making a friendly suggestion that's all
