Default Re: PC1800 Front Shovel (1/12)

Finished the lower hyd. mounts on the boom....really wish I had a new 3/16" end mill, the two I have are dull and duller....lol....so this ended up being painfully slow but thankfully I did manage to get the slots done.














I'm going to try make this style of pin keeper...think this will be fun to make by hand (not)...might be a bit of filing invloved with making these...lol...The keepers and pins will be made of brass and then soldered together.

Got a bit more done on the boom....cut out the section on the ends of the top and bottom plates, should be one big radius from side to side but I decided to square it up instead. Also made the small lifting lugs...funny how the small parts take so much time to make, hopefully the end result and appearance will be worth all the time.
