Scott,

Do you have a pic of the knife edge on the cog wheels? When I read the last post, I made me pause. I would have shaved off the points? Now I'm confused...

Default 1:16 dozer w/blade control video

Got the blade control working. I'm happy with the overall function of blade and tracks. I need to see if I can find some metal crown gears to use in place of the plastic slot.it crowns, they are not going to take the abuse.

And I need an operator! Are there 1:16 scale figures that would work for me as an operator? Would I find something like that at walmart or a toy store?

It runs great Jim, good job.

Bruder people are 1/16 and look ok.

i tried to take pictures of the drive sprocket teeth last night and it just doesn't show how i modified them.

Give me a call today and i'll try to explain it better on the phone.
