I finally got the screw drive to work and that made me want to do more. I need to mount the tanks and batteries. Still looking at paint ideas also.

Thanks guys. I got the cab off Ebay maybe 4 or 5 years ago. It was going to be a mixer but getting the drum rotation right was a bit rough. This setup works fine. Needs a lot more but I happy thus far.

Cant remember who I got the trailer from but I got it here. A good deal for the trailer and frame. I bought parts for a 3d printer that made the screw drive real easy and cheap. Still need a door and powder coating. Once Im sure with it all, truck will get a new frame minus all the holes. Also need to mount the cab with out any extra holes in it. Its has a full interior that Id like to use.

The fenders on your trailer did you make them or buy them..

Self made fenders. A tutorial is somewhere on the forum. Not to difficult at all and you can make them deep and long as you like. Need to make more and some mounts.

I was just curious we made a set out of PVC pipe and made it so it totally covers up the axles...keep up the good work....

I'm jealous of you guys with the Mack CH cabs kits. I have been looking for one for a couple years now and had no luck. I actually missed one on Ebay a few months ago. Looking forward to seeing more of this build.
