That's really an amazing looking build!

It will be interesting when you're done to estimate how many hours you think you've probably got into the cad modelling, vs the parts prep and building

Can't wait to see this ready to bulldoze stuff.

Thanks, this would probably end up like a demo build, not sure of the power train being able to push dirt but when i tested it, it can pretty much climb a 30 degree incline but lets see... i can say 3d modeling really takes more time than printing and assembling but im excited to see how it would look when finished and painted.... ill keep you guys posted...cheers.
