Default Re: hi from southern ca

Im not sure on the scale yet. I have yet to do alot of planning out. Right now im just scoping the cost of what it might take for either directions. it seems screw drive is more doable. im in no way a machinist. in my case, ive been an iron worker for 12 years, and have welding equipment and such. I plan on really using whatever i make. i love the idea of having a tool to do a job. and that would be the intent. with tracks i see a big cost, but on the other hand with wheels i see more work. so im still debating. im leaning more toward a tracked screw drive loader now that i think about it. and the plus side with that is i can make different blades to turn it into a dozer type too.
