He is at it again! 1:50 Dozer Conversion

Give it a break - sit it on the shelf - and think on it - give the ol gray matter time to crunch it through.

I hear pager motors can make nice little screw drives.

My solution was to go bigger! Here is a short video of my 1/16 (seems small to be called 1/16) spec cast die cast dozer. Used micro servos with a pinion pressed on the top spline and slot it crown gears.

Where did you get the model? Looks like a really great conversion.

There is a local die cast place here in Des Moines that carries mostly Ag stuff but they always have some construction stuff also.
