Hey Mitch. It's been a long time. I thought you were long gone with the shutting down of the GT forum. Nice to see you here. I remember you working on your Cat wheel dozer. Hopefully you get some photos up.

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

Thanks for the kinds words. I have reconfigured the dozer to include a Servonaut BMA,SMX and S20. Additionally, I have added tire chains made from "Butchers Chain Armour". I have yet to figure out how to reduce the size of the pics, so that they will fit. Any ideas?

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

What system are you using to upload pictures?

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

See pics

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

i think if you edit the photo in photobucket and reduce the size to 640/480 then save it.right click on the image you want and select "copy image location" then add it onto your thread by selecting the insert image button and copy the link into there.once the image link is coppied look for th_ and remove that part from the address and it should work

Hi Mitch, are you mxmaddog on youtube? If so you've got a fantastic fleet.

The chains look good, what method have you used to secure them to the wheels?

Thanks
Elliot

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

Yes! I'm mxmaddog, thanks for asking. I have used fishing "Leader Line" , the stainless steel version. Works and looks great.:)

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

Nice looking model-is it a working machine yet?

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

Yes, the loader is fully operational, and works great. Now that the chains are applied, the loader gains more traction and pushes more dirt in faster time then the tracked dozer I have.:)

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

Welcome back Mitch, long time no hear. The wheel dozer looks great.

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

Thanks,

Glad to see and hear rom you guys. I bought yet another ScaleArt Tracked Loader (on the way) and I'll make sure I post pics during construction.:o

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

Hi Mitch... another one... why's that?

Do you still have your damitzes as well?

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

Just tryin some different things (such as paint). I sold the Damitz models, but I;m planning for another.

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

Welcome aboard! What part of Utah? I'm in Provo.
Like the wheel dozer!

Cheer's, Neil.

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

That'll be interesting to see, please post a build thread.

With regards to the your wheel chains, did you buy the gloves to make them from?

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

I bought the chain from a fellow in Germany, when I was there for the Dortmund show.

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

BTW, I'm in Ogden, Utah where I work for the U.S. Forest Service as Aviation Safety Manageer.

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

very very nice build.

Re: Cat Wheel Dozer W/Chains
 

Yes, i assume it was from Tobias Braeker? The guy with the red wheel loader. He's a nice chap, really friendly and helpful. Being a cheapskate I was trying to look for cheap ways to make the chains !
