I test fit the valve block and the pump to the grader, and they seems to go in wihtout any problems. I will add second valve block in front of the other and they go so low I can add pump over them and there still over 2 inch clearance to the hood.

Ari, just a quick suggestion. Loosen the set screw that holds the motor to the the pump and turn it 180 degrees to the bottom. That way if there is any pump leakage it will drain out the hole and not gum up the motor. Thanks for showing us that just about anyone can build this caliber of model with just a small shop. Well Done.

I found myself starting from the beginning of your thread once more, today. I just can't over how much talent you have, to create a machine like this. We can't even call it a model because it's not. It's a true, functional, working machine, but on a smaller scale. Unbelievable! What a masterpiece. I think even some the best model builders on this site can't help but be humbled, when they view your thread!

I'd paint this thing before I'd plumb it, gonna be mezzy taking it all apart afterward.

Will mine be ready to ship in the new year?

You are right about that, but with this one I want to see that if it even works the way it should, before painting. It´s easier to do the needed modifications when you don´t have to watch out the new paint job.

Boy that is a lot of hose! Your doing great with routing it all, and keeping it tidy with the anchor points and hose retainers. Very clean.
