cdm is on a distinguished road
Default Re: My Mruder (bruder cat320 something look alike)

I was getting lots of leaks on the 210mm piston. seals kept getting cut and what not. ended up beveling all edges to prevent that upon assembly.

rpm is low as this is my bleeding speed. i need to turn it up. how could you tell tho lol

i'll measure the reach once im done with the tracks section canopy. i don't want to get anything dirty yet because im using the kitchen counters as a table now. all my machinery is on that floor of the house and im not running up and down to my usual RC bunker.

the small arm was designed to level almost horizontally on the pull, but after testing by hand the pull force seemed excessive to get it to that position, so i cut the mount for that cyllinder a little forward, so the arm bends more than it levels. makes sense? otherwise the space is there. i might rework it down the road.
