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...

Here is a short progress video of my current build, a 3' x 2" conveyer. Don't have a fast enough gear motor so I'm sort of stuck while I wait on new motors to show up.

Re: 1/16 Oliver Dozer Conversion
Skeeter, thanks.
It is a diecast model that I converted to RC. I had to do a bit if simple machine work for the motor mounts and bearings on the drive axels but it wasn't too bad.
