That was amazing set of pictures and video.. It really show your building and fabrication skills.. You do set the bar very high when it comes to aluminum built RC's

Thanks very much to all of you. I actually enjoyed watching the video myself because it made me stop and think about the process of making certain parts.

Thanks again to those that helped keep me motivated though out the build!

Mario, you are probably right. It may just be a while.

Wow, this is cool! That's a beast of a setup! Really puts things in perspective with both of those dumps sitting on the deck!!!

Keep up the good work Reg!,

Thanks Alex! My wife and I spent some time over the weekend camping in an area where some real off-highway trucks still operate hauling logs. We passed a loaded Hayes HDX yesterday on our way home. I must say that you feel pretty small in a full size pickup with a camper when one drives by on a two lane road! With 15' bunks they own the majority of the road and you get what's left! I pulled over as far as I could and we waited for the truck to pass! There aren't many of these trucks in use anymore so the remaining drivers are the best of the best. No worries about them not knowing if they can pass or not!
