Page 631 Walking Dragline

Hi lorenzo-I see you are working on the page again. Why do you want a light -weight bucket? I found the heavier the bucket got the better it dug. I actually added weight to my dragline bucket.

Hi Tom,

yes I'm doing a little on it. The bucket was to heavy. But I think it will still dig good.
I also had a mast collapse so the boom went down. The mast and one of the boom parts broke so I have to redo it. The mast this time in metal. I think the boom is strong enough so I will let it made of styrene for the first. We'll see.

This is how it looks now. I shut the openings with aluminium sheets.
