Re: what should I use?

The model you have chosen for your project looks to be a really complicated build with many hours of work ahead. I would say not to worry about a job site until you have a working model. Just my...

Re: PC1800 Front Shovel (1/12)

A little mistake like this is not a problem but I'm sure you were upset because you wanted it perfect. It makes me feel better knowing that an accomplished machinist can and does make mistakes. Great...

Re: PC1800 Front Shovel (1/12)

I have been waiting to see how you were going to operate the hydraulics. This looks simple enough and should work well. Nice work so far. Waiting for more!!

Re: cat D6T 6 way blade

Re: block button

Did everyone read and understand this? I don't know why there is even a discussion about this-or a poll. Makes no sense to me.

Re: cat D6T 6 way blade

Re: done a bad thing

Very nice car-too bad it's not a hemi but a great car. I had a 69 charger with a 440 and I really liked that car. This brings back a lot of memories.
