bitner Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Well here it is after about a month and a half of work. I drew up scale plans of it on Autocad, and then used those to construct it from sheet styrene. These units were used in the timber industry here in the Pacific Northwest in the 50's to early 80's. There are still a few out there earning their keep. It took 5 cans of Tamiya camel yellow to paint it, and I made the decals up on the computer. I'm pretty proud of the end result for being my first ever totally scratch built piece of logging equipment. Cheers: Bill
highway Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 WOW! I'm always impressed by your work, but this blows my mind! Beautiful job!
Sixties Sam Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 HOLY COW! That is amazing work! I can't imagine building something that complicated from scratch. What a magnificent job you've done. The CAD work alone must have been a huge task. Very impressive model! Sam
DanielG Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Beauty! I have been thinking of doing a portable spar, the one on the Sherman chassis. You wouldn't by any chance have already done one?
