That is going together nicely! Can we see a closeup of the grill? That has some nice detail to it.

Robbert that is truly outstanding craftsmanship.. I know you said the picks would be worth the wait on the phone and you were more than right.. Keep up the great work..

The grille and fan look to be a very good printing. The paint and detail are amazing. Its hard to believe this is wood.

Thanks guys for all the kind words...... they help me stay focused at times. It's been a long build but its finally coming together. I am working on the interior while i wait for the pump/valves to get here.

Thanks again!

Rob, truly fine craftsmanship. My first though when I looked at the first pic, looking at the back of the motor was how the heck did he make that fan look so real. It wasn't till I looked at the lights that I realized it was a print of a real one. I know how small of an LED you can get and they come small but not small enough to put that many of them in that size space..

Isn't that kind of cheating to use a pic of the grill instead of making the grill and fan It does look very real! With most of this build being wood, it is still unbelievable the way you make it look like metal.

Wow. The painted parts look just like die-cast metal or something similar! I know it's wood, but seriously, no one would know the difference, unless you told them, or they felt the model with their own hands. Super clean paint job.

Awesome!!! Can't wait for more updates!

[td9clyde]

[dirtpusher9]

WOW Rob, that is outstanding work. I don't know why I'm surprised with the quality work you do. Can't wait to see it blading a pass. If you need an operator, let me know.

Great work Rob !
Can't wait to see it moving dirt, it will be alot of fun moving dirt. We could sure use it up North for finishing up all the dirt roads we build.

Thanks guys. In the past two wks, I have had two toy show, so progress has been a lil slow, plus I am still awaiting the pump and stuff. I am workign on the interior while i wait.

DirtP9: I will probably need a block of instructions on how to run this thing after i get it all together.

Greg, I will get it on a flatbed to ya...lol

[hottrod1022]

[RCTech9]

as is ussual - Very Nice Rob.......still can't believe how you get such a nice look - it really looks like castings...... - must be in the flowing raius and fillets......

really looking forward to seeing this run about......how long is it anyway??

[sparkycuda]

Grader really looking good. Still can't believe that so much is wood, but doesn't look like it. I'm not coordinated enough to run a real grader, so I am waiting to see you operate this rig! Keep up the great work!
