DRAGLINE PICTURES- As I get closer to starting the NorthWest Dragline model, I have received a bunch of dragline photos. I want to thank Jerry Penner for all the pictures he sent me . Even though I am not getting many pics of the exact model no. of Mels Dragline, I am saving the pictures to my computer for possible future dragline models. We were going to go see another dragline yesterday and take some pics, but it did not work out. With mild weather in the forecast later this week, that will be one of our little adventures for the four day weekend coming up.
Speaking of ADVENTURES !! , Deb and I are thinking it’s looking like a 99.9% chance we got another very cool adventure scheduled for the spring that most of you will enjoy. So we are looking forward to that. It will be our first time in that part of the country.
LeTourneau L-1800 Loader Model Progress- With the short work week, I’m not sure I will get the loader assembled as I want to keep working on the tracks until they are done.
CAT D-9G DOZER PROGRESS- I got all the track pads cut out and part of them bent, by tonight I will have them all bent and drilled and should have the grousers all cut and some of them welded to the track pads.
