Re: Tonka RC, my way

Ya, I can't see the pics, I want to see the pics, maybe photo bucket changed their policy and lets us link but shows a small blank box?

Ok, back on topic... I like Tonka conversions!

Re: Bruder Conveyor Brass Rebuild

Here is a video link to your build. Do you think the 195 rpm is going to be about right? Were you able to measure the speed of the belt or just a guess? I ordered several motors last night in that...

Skeeter, thanks.

Re: The chain has been broken
