I see I'm not the only one to use whatever tool works to get the job done.

Re: 1/16 Bucyrus-Monighan Walking Dragline
WOW looking good, Must be a thing about Guys named Steve and machining ability.
I'm jealous, sure wish I could do that... Should have actually went to my metal working class in high school. This is a very impressive machine Steve, good work.

Re: 1/16 Bucyrus-Monighan Walking Dragline
More impressive machine work from a master. I know what you mean about using whatever works. I very seldom use a boring bar unless I need to go very deep. 2 flute end mill works very nice as a boring bar. Maybe I should be quiet Giving away secrets!!!

Just wow. That's looking really cool. It looks so good that it would be a pity to hide it under a coat of paint.

Re: 1/16 Bucyrus-Monighan Walking Dragline
May 6-7-8 2011 International Watch Fob Collectors .http://www.watchfob.com/show.html near the Cleveland Airport . One of the leaders has a open house at his gravel pit on Sunday only.(Not sure if it's open to all.) Near Mantua,Ohio. The pit is real close to the turnpike and if you know where to look you can see part of his pit. Operating 1:1 shovels draglines,dozers, loaders and other machinery. I want to take the dragline and set it up in his shop and dig some sand and gravel. I was trying to do it last year but it rained that weekend and I was still tacking the bucket together and didn't make it.
