the KAT has a bit of room in it , but now the 4200 has more.
Im going to leave the original placement set up in the 4200 but will now place battery next to counter weight across the back of the excavator as there is a lot more room at the back, and it will make changing battery easier.

now I have run out of paint , so maybe get started again on doing the KAT thumb.

more progress, but I have a question .
Ive made some solid lines out of stainless tube to fit to the main boom, just sitting on there temporarily , but before I cut the plastic lines .
How do you guys seal the fittings on.
Ive tapped them at 5mm which is the correct size for my fittings , I will change the bottom fittings for right angle fittings, but do you use any sort of tread lock or sealant.





I have made some access panels to cover the ugly air vents, and will run a fan at the top of the engine cover to take hot air away.



cheers andy
