That's a great looking machine. Did you base all of your dimensions off the Bruder model? If not, it seems the money you spent on the Bruder was mostly for the cab and hood! Everything else you scratchbuilt, and did a mighty fine job of it too!

Great looking and working piece of equipment. Always great to see what someone else is working on.

Very nice! How did you modify your controller? Are those PS2 parts?


Thanks, Reg

Yes and you are right, those are from PS2 controller. I use PS2 sticks to control tracks. I also have custom firmware installed in my radio. Now it is perfect for excavator. Best thing is price, it cost under 100$ for me including mods.

Some of the dimensions are same than in Bruder. Stick and boom are slightly extended because I wanted long stick/boom version.

From Bruder I only used cab and hood. Hood is modified to look more like D series Cat.
