Well after a lot of you know what and taking a part 3 times because my German is so great and Google leaves a lot to be desired I got the bucket together. Ed

Ed, you sure have a lot of cool toys now. I'm kinda caught up at the moment, so if you want you can send it down here and I'll put it together for you a try it out, just to get it broke in and all. lol

JAMMER · #13 10-01-2010, 08:44 PM

Joe I got this started as you can see but seeing your offering I have a dozer that needs assembly I know you could handle that. Next week I have to go to see the man who did my dump trailer I got the frame for the box all bolted together and he is going to redo the aluminum tub and stainless sides over so I am pert busy right now because when I get it all bent I have to bolt it together I'm telling you I think I better go find a job so I can take a break. I've got to slow down because my back and shoulder is really bothering my. Ed

JAMMER · #14 10-04-2010, 11:09 AM

Here is a little more put together. Ed

Looking Good for a first time builder!!!

JAMMER · #17 10-05-2010, 03:29 PM

Thank you very much but I have one thing to say about this build and the company that builds this model is would seem to me that they could put some stronger parts in the kit so that when you handle it and have to put screws and nuts in hard places that you don't break parts that are very flimsy and break when trying to do doing this in tight spots. Thank goodness for JB Weld and Home Depot for fixes.Ed

JAMMER · #18 10-22-2010, 09:11 AM

Here is a little more progress on the loader.Ed

Espeefan · #19 10-22-2010, 11:52 AM

Wow. I always thought the Stahl models were pretty high quality. What kind of parts are breaking, Ed? Was considering one of these loaders for a while now, but I hate hearing that they are light or flimsy.

JAMMER · #20 10-22-2010, 04:42 PM

Nate so far you can't really see them in the picture but the bracket that hold the front housing to the side I had to make it out of L channel, there was a stamped sort of piece and just moving it when trying to get the bolts in it broke. What I did made it stronger. There are a few other things so far like holes not taper. I guess I am to picky but for the money you have to pay for one I guess if the directions were in English it would help, took it apart 3 times to get it right , O well still got lots more to do . Ed
