Reg can't you get the loader to clear the sides with out the ramp? That is the trouble with most of the loaders that are made today.

My wife and I have been hitting the local swap and shop this summer when we've had time. Today was the first time I've found anything to get excited about. We picked up the backhoe for $20 and the Tonka for $2. I also got a tarp for the pond.






Now I just need a bunch more Firgelli's and some rain!lol

man I need to talk to you.... seriously! would you be willing in talk to me about some of your secrets on turning diecast EQ into working rc EQ??

[RCP57]

No secrets here. Honestly this will be the first diecast I have tried to convert. It may be a slow process because even though I have a bunch of actuators lying around only a couple of them are right for the job. The good thing is it looks like they will work our fairly well when I can get some more in the right sizes and ratios.

I ran a loooooonnnnngggggg hose up from our garden pump and into the "lake". It took almost 3 full 100' hoses to reach and 3 hours worth of pumping but it's full enough to fill in around the sides with dirt! I measured the depth and it is about 32" at the deepest part to ground level so at it's current level I would say it's at least 2' deep everywhere. When it start raining it should be full nearly to ground level so this should be good. Now I really need to pay attention around the edges because my models aren't water proof!
