Re: Cat Ride On Conversion

I've never seen one like this before. I've seen some kid powered diggers in parks/playgrounds, but...

Re: Cat Ride On Conversion
Oh that's a definite keeper as is, with or without the original sound module. I have never seen anything like it.

I don't know about anybody else, but I can't see any pictures. You need to use a third-party to host your picture files, then link to them. How did you try posting the pictures?

Tamiya gearboxes
There have been several Bruder conversions that have used the Tamiya gearboxes, by SmallHaul and others. I was just wondering how these gearboxes have stood up to the test of time.

Re: Cockshutt 70 tractor (1935-48)
Yup, no rocket science to it at all. They're just a place to park your butt and your feet. All you need is a basic frame to keep the butt, foot and back boards from sliding around on the wagon...

Re: 3D Filament color match to Bruder
I ordered a spool of the "scarlet", but I think I may have screwed up on who I ordered it from, because it's not even close to the sample. I'll use it somewhere, I'm printing out parts for stuff in...

If you REALLY want that video in a format you can read now, check at a photo/video shop.

I've got a spool of their Enzo red and I'm printing with it now, it wasn't a close match for the Bruder red either. I haven't had any problems with it, but I normally print on the high end of the...
