1/16 Bucyrus-Monighan Walking Dragline

[9W Monighan]

Decided to make the pins for the fairlead sheaves. I got tired of looking at the 9/64'' drill bit and a broken 0-80 tap shoved into the holes holding them on.




Next I made the bracket for the arch that the dump rope attaches to. Got tired of the small hose clamp holding it on
















Ready to TIG weld onto the arch.

Thanks Brian, That little piece only took me most of the weekend to execute. still need a wedge socket made if time permits.
Yes, I'm counting down now. I better get my trailer ready. I need to make a check list for some loose ends on: the Drag,the Rocker, and I have another toy that should be ready if I can get a motor attached soon.
