Grove Cranes – Todays picture is another upcoming project on my short list to build this fall . I have also wanted to build one of these for many years. Nicole has everything ready for me to start building it too. The tires will be 6 inches in Dia. so it will be a nice size too. This will be built this fall too .
Letourneau Wheeled Dozer Progress- I got the side tanks cut out and welded together and installed and I also got the top walkway platform cut out . I got the two exhaust stack materials around too.
Lincoln Plasma Cutter Problem- Two weeks ago my Lincoln Plasma cutter quit on me so i took it all apart and cleaned it up and looked inside the air regulator box and cleaned it. That seemed to have fixed it but two days ago it quit again. So I ordered a couple new parts that seem to be the problem. Going to take a week for the parts so i will not be able to keep going on the model without it. I can still keep going on the blade and exhaust and railings and engine but no interior cuts.
I’m sure that will keep me busy until the parts arrive.
Have a great Thurs.
