Looks like a Galion Can't see the power unit. 10-20 McCormick Deering or Fordson. I probably have some sales literature on it.

I'm slowly working on a Caterpillar 15 Motor Patrol similar setup but it as a Cat 15 crawler tractor under it for power.

Lou- the grapple for the Juicer, is that going to be pneumatic or hydraulic? I was looking at the quick connect "T's" and wondering if I could get by with something similar for my grapple, I need it to be able to spin 360 deg., I'll be using an elec. motor to spin the grapple in the direction of choice, the cylinder with be hydraulic on mine.

Lou, great vids of running your equipment at that show. You have a fantastic fleet!

I really enjoyed running all of my equipment at a full scale show with Steve this summer. It is very rewarding to have groups of people outside our hobby mesmerized by our little creations.

TnTLou-looks good! You really work fast. The gearmotors look like the shaft comes out the center. Is that right? If so could you say where you got them.
