1/12 John Deere 870G
So this is my first scratch build after converting a bruder excavator, its made from steel, 50mmx50mm box for track base, cant remember what gauge the boom steel is, tracks are made from 1/2 inch roller chain with every other tooth removed from sprocket, the track pads are carpet gripper cut into bit and bolted through every other chain link.
I know people like to see the universal scale coke can to get an idea of the size but we couldnt find 1 so i had to use the universal pint glass
