No, I'm starting the third section and hope to get it pretty much complete this weekend. I won't have the point sheave done so I'm going to just clamp a temporary one on.

Steve,
Talk to Willy (customrcmodels) about your lighting. He uses some 5mm LEDs on his tanks and trucks that you can not look at as they are so bright. They make the stock Tamiya headlights look like candles!
Looks like I will not be able to make the York, PA show next week Was able to get new computer and software for my CNC Sherline mill at a very good price so all of my available funds went there instead. Hope to see your dragline next year if all goes well.

I haven't decided if I want LED's yet. I sort a like the older incandescent bubs. giving the vintage of this machine. I think you can get LED's in a off white witch may look ok. It would be nice if I could find some fixture that are already made.
Sorry you can't make it. Let's see some pictures of your new mill set up.
