Re: RCLogger

Wow! That's coming along fast. I like your figures. Did you borrow them from your kids ... or are they yours. Are you going to run a Sabertooth in it?

Re: Oshkosh P-series

That looks great! Nice tires and rims. Are they from Fechtner or AFV? Did you have any problems getting them.

Re: ADT Project

Not quite yet. I did get the rest of the rims turned and bored out (on the new lathe) but I stil have to do some milling on them and drill the hubs. I need to order some tubing for the axles and...

Re: my tools

Ummm, that's just a little bigger than your Taig mill. Hopefully you can make the adjustment to using it. I wish I had your room for machinery.

Is this the machine that is going to turn out all...

Re: hand made custom wheels

Those wheels are just awesome! I can't imagine how you can do that on a manual lathe.

Re: ADT Project

Thanks Snochaser and RCLogger. I thought of buying some rims but did not know what I would need. I also wanted something that looked like it had planetary hubs. The nice thing about having a lathe...

ADT Project

I finally started one of my projects, an ADT based loosely on a Cat 350D. I am using 34 rpm / 139 oz-in gear motors from Robotshop and RC4wd MilSpec 2.2 tires.

I decided to make my own rims and...

Re: John Deere 9520T - 1/16

Wow, that's impressive! You do amazing work. Did you mill the bevel gears in the transmission or buy them. You can buy these type of gears at SDP-SI but they are not inexpensive and they charge a...

Re: 1st Time, 1st Build from Alberta Canada

Welcome to the forum. Nice looking truck ... but, being from AB, I think you need to build the elusive twin steer bed truck next.

Nice weather you are having out there!

Re: Boom/crane truck

Not to sound like a broken record ... but how about a twin steer picker!

What hydraulic components do you need? Maybe you could buy them directly from Germany. I wonder if TTM has the valves...

Re: Manufacture Hydraulic Pump?

I am still considering building one but I am a long ways from needing one so I haven't done anything with it. I do have the UMS pump (taken apart from the original motor that apparently doesn't...

Re: mog's trucks

A twin steer picker. Awesome! Could you use brass for the boom? You could then bend and solder the boom pieces.

Re: Thread tap suggestion

I haven't looked far and wide but the options at McMaster Carr are limited in the small taps, ex. 1-72. I think the real options for the different types of taps start at 2-56. I may have to expand...

Re: dresser TD40B dozer

Nice work on the pump - a vane pump you say. Wow, nice work. Would a press fit bronze SAE863 collar on the shaft help seal it? Are you planning to make the valves? If so, are you going to do a...
