S&M construction open for bizz nizz!

It's official, my first scratch built screener is ready for the worksite!

That's it, project done, take it off the to do list














And quite enough it won't bother the neighbours.

Hey all. An update on near the end of a season here at S&M construction. Massive amounts of leaves will be falling soon and will have to shutdown operations for the winter.
On a good note! I been tweaking and learning to run my plastic dozer. It ain't no Izzy built or Ralph's awesome D11 but for what it is, and what I made it. This thing rocks! I have a few more things I want to do and add like blade tip function and get rid of blade lift linkage slack.
Also came up with a homegrown version of endpoint adjustment...




And here are a few videos of the dozer working away

Nice job Mario! That dozer really does well for a conversion.

Thanks Kent. I'm very happy with the results and had so much fun building, I definitely want to do another conversion!
I see why guys do this. It's not just about saving money because you can't afford the real thing, it's about seeing what you can make and how it may or may not perform.



Well I have my first signs of the season coming to an end.... It was 80 degrees on Sunday, I raked and swept up the entire RC park. Monday was 50 and rain with high winds.
Here is what the yard looks like today......







Not nearly as depressed as years past when all rc fun stopped. With my basement shop the building fun can start.
