Re: First build ,cat D11

Re: Vario Digger in Cat Yellow
Jason, set the pressure while the pump is running at full speed, but the system is not demanding any flow. That's the worst case scenario. It would be the same thing as having a valve open, with a...

Re: Vario Digger in Cat Yellow
Awesome, Jason. I could sit and watch you build all day. The details you add go a long way to making the machine come alive. Great work.

Re: First build ,cat D11
Cooper, your parts looks great all painted up. I was wondering what you are going to do for cab windows. Your first run video is great. The D11 does seem a little slow, but maybe you could bump...

Re: Wire sizes
Space plays a bit of a factor too. Smaller wire makes it easier to fit inside tight models. The larger gauge wire doesn't flex as much, which makes it harder to work with. I used to run 10 gauge...

Re: Hayes HD dump truck...RCP's style

There were a few for sale not to long ago. I don't know that they were spread axle models, but they definitely are nice trailers. Myself, though, I'd take an end dump, step deck, or lowboy first. ...

The crane looks really good! The cylinders are very scale, and from the sound of it, they are also functional? Did you get it plumbed up yet?
