This started as a Izzy dozer which got me some of the base components .

There's a thickened plate welded inside for threading where the top link attaches and the ball socket will attach .

[Claus]

Wow, that's nice!

[PaulNZ]

You are a fantastic engineer!

Nice work on this dozer, it should also perform well being so heavy, dozers need good ground weight for tractive force

Very nice, I will follow this build

[RCP57]

Looks like you were doing some heavy pushing already judging by the bent grousers:cop:. The attachments look great as usual and I don't want you to take this the wrong way but is it bad that I am more intrigued by what might be in the background? I know you are sitting on another set of expensive tires so I am guessing this will be their home?....:cool:

Keep up the great work! Starting on a dozer very soon myself so this helps me get motivated.

[ihbuilder]

Good eye Reg , there's actually 3 of them .

Thanks all dozers are my passion . They say I was born in the seat of 1 .

Paul , yes the more weight the better .

[Cooper]

I too love all the dozers. This looks great!! Can't wait to see more!!

[ihbuilder]

I wanted to get this lower (ball joint) done before starting a run of wheels :( but bizz iz bizz :rolleyes: . So finally , last night and tonight ( about an hr each ) it's done :)

yea, a lil chatter on the 1 piece :( ( screwed up feeds & speeds :o ) it'll sand out . I did it in 2 setups with a manual face off on the back side . Next pic shows firgelli , only a temp rig up for this wknd .

[liftmys10]

Nice job! Cant wait to see some videos.

[PaulNZ]

looking good!

[Kingcam2]

Nice work so far ihbuilder, one day I want to order one of the Izzy Bulldozzer.

Keep up the good work, I can't wait to see the next update on your build.

Regards Cameron.

[kaptain Jack]

I want one to.

[modelman]

Hi steve-I am always impressed by you and 9w making parts from steel. I can't do that!!! I just ruin tooling. I guess that is the difference in a machinist and a backyard-hacker. Guess I will stick with brass and aluminum. Your dozer looks good and I am sure it will work good.

[ihbuilder]

thanks guys .

Tom, I love cutting steel . Aluminum and I have a love hate relationship when I started with it on the cnc equip.

I took a break from polishing :blea: and pushed some hard ground with it :D Plenty of power . I'll see if I can doo a vid on sunday . tomorrow will just be rubber pit

[Izzy]

Your going to go play in crumb rubber? I thought you swore that stuff off.

[ihbuilder]

Your going to go play in crumb rubber? I thought you swore that stuff off.

well you know this thing needs to be babied sometimes :p it will rip its grousers off in the dirt :eek:

[ihbuilder]

I did get some crappy phone vids with the phone in the cab and some machining parts . but I might not live long enough till they upload :confused:


Any how , the boss told me to take time for myself :rolleyes: so I finished up the bosses on the blade ( tilt and angle ) . I'm trying new software , so it's a pleasant go so far compared to the hobby grade package I started with :bounce:

Izzy

[ihbuilder]

Thanks Chris , we got a couple runnin around here . Picking up steel yesterday at surplus yard yesterday there was 1 cleaning up the pipliner's mess I almost got close enough to see how cat connects the lift cylinders while 4 guys in hard hats changing the cutting edges ( 1 doing the werk and 3 BSin ) gave me a funny look . proly thought I was gona yell at em for werkin under the blade with no support :rolleyes: (idiots :rolleyes:) If dad caught me doin that back in the day :eek::eek: . anyhow , I'm just improvising :rolleyes:

[ihbuilder]

I worked on the tank and ROP this weekend . I didn't fuss on the inside of the tank , not that it will be seen . :o

I need to cut the bolt plates for the bottom of the ROPS then tig em on like the mating plates on the tank .

[RCP57]

Looking good Steve. This should definitely add some weight for traction too!

[ihbuilder]

Thanks , Reg

I finally got a lil update . Oil fill caps and vent made and welded it all together .

[jack van]

looking realy nice keep up the great work

[crisis time]

It never ceases to amaze the quality of the engineering carried out by some of the members here and this is no exception :cool: :cool:

Amazing workmanship and attention to detail very well done

[D8R]

With that new ROPS and new tanks it smells Cat allover!
Looking good. Wish my boss was telling me to take some time off.
/Dan

[Azonic]

Nice work!

[modelman]

Very nice steve- Looks better with each picture. Great details! I really like the track system. Just like the "real deal".

[ihbuilder]

Thanks a bunch guys . It's not perfect , but close enough . 2nd time around on the cab . I still need to finish the welding .

I did some "temp" firgelli hook up to be able to use at Cabin Fever . As it turns out I may be able to get the firgellis to werk for the 6 way blade function . We'll see :rolleyes: Here's a vid my lil girl took while I did some grading ( hate not having the 6 way functioning :( )

Now that's a build thread. Great work Steve. There's no substitute for machining skills like yours.

Ran across this Video Of Steves D6T At CF '15, rolling around in the back ground. Nice!

Nice work , you got this one going?

[ihbuilder]

Thanks Clyde, I'm using it but it's not done yet :(

Cylinders and related parts not quite done so back to firgelli lift for cabin fever . I did manage to fix the tracks ,now let's see if I can tear them apart again:rolleyes: . Some of what I got done .

I've been waiting for you to do some more on this Steve. Looks good.

I've been waiting for you to do some more on this Steve. Looks good.

Thanks Joe , I'm getting there . The big guy (TD40) goin back on the bench with it . I'm just figuring out the planetaries for the finals now that I know where I can get the parts (thanks Cooper;)) :D. Haven't seen you around in awhile :eek:

I found out you can't doo any welding in model with sabertooth in model :(:o so all the prep for cabin fever was for naught :( .

[modelman]

I found out you can't doo any welding in model with sabertooth in model :(:o so all the prep for cabin fever was for naught :( .

Steve-I was going to ask you if there was any video of your dozer working at Cabin Fever but I guess this answers my question. I Would like to see more of this model.

[ihbuilder]

A lil more :o

A few more lil parts then I can assemble :eek:

[Cooper]

Wow Steve!! Those cylinders look darn good, lot of time in them. Do you add a oring into screw on cap and just compression fit it. I never thought of making them like that. I may have to do that as long as I can get a little better at cutting inside threads.

[JAMMER]

Nice job on the cylinders Steve. Ed

[modelman]

Very nice brass work on the cylinders steve-I really like these older dozers. I would like to see someone build a cable dozer.

Steve it's going good over there..........Carry on Please :cool:

[Lil Giants]

Looking good Steve! :cool:

Any plans to make a wider wishbone to move tracks away from body?

[ihbuilder]

Joe, the track frames will stay where they are . On the real machine the track pads are off set on the chains . I plan to mill new tracks in the future. They're designed and programmed . It's just a matter of devoting the mill time :eek:.

Finally got all the cylinder parts done :eek: well I still need to mill the tear drop on the pins yet . Also need to move the angle cylinder bosses out on the blade :( .
