Re: 990 cat loader
Nice craftsmanship on the carrier and the whole project as well. I can't wait to see it moving dirt or rock.

Re: Pete 346 6x6 mixer
Nice build. I agree the bruder body looks great on there.
I'm curious about the hydraulic cylinder under the frame in front of the axle. What is it for? Steering?

Re: KOMATSU Excavator from Malaysia
Very nice work on this huge machine. From watching the undercarriage videos it looks as if you don't have any type of tension on the tracks. Is this something you think will be a problem in the...

Re: My HEMTT build
Will the steering radius be affected with locked diffs? I'm thinking with this many wheels on the ground you should have traction most of the time.

Re: MF 1155
We had a 1135 on the farm for a while. That tractor was awesome. We had a cabless model with the 6cyl not the V8. Went through a lot of orbital valves and made a quick release system for the...

Re: 70's Wilison Cattle Trailer
How are you doing the roll up door? I learned a trick a while ago watching Norm Abrams build a roll top desk. He cut all the individual pieces and then glued them to a piece of canvas.
