thanks for the comment, it clear up my doubt if i am doing it right.
if any of my friends interested in this excavator, i can sell the whole unit to.
its start off as a hobby and interest, i didn't think of the design issue, intellectual property and profits. when this matter arise, its surprise me, i learned, i know what should be the right move now.

You should never sell or give away your intectual property , For all resons lil giants states .

" can sell the whole unit to. " whatch how you word this little quote here in the build forums , It could be construed as you are building for sale . We have a vender section on here for that for a small yearly fee .

OTOH , the excavator looks great . I have operated a few of those with hammers .

at 1st, i thought i will just install all the tubing on the excavator with just nylon tubing as final. i saw lots of other builders are putting in copper tubing. but i was to lazy to make one, then it sudden came to me, why not i gave it a try.
just try 1 pcs, then it was all the way go....
no wonder, i realised how fun and nice looking to have those copper tubing installed.





be heading to spray paint shop later, to have it colored. let see how its appear out.
