Great work.

I don't think there is any worry about us getting tired of watching your masterpiece work.

Thank you. I might as well start printing money,the government is doing it. Oh that's right, they can do what ever they want, even violate the constitution.

Got started on the 463 scraper/pan the other day. Going to be a big devil at 45'' overall length. Here's a couple pics.

Did you include enough hydraulic capacity for the scraper when you built the dozer? I think you may have mentioned it, but I can't remember.

You look like you have a good start to it. Can't wait to see it heaped up with dirt behind your awsome D-9

Thanks for all the compliments.

I contacted Cat about getting a licence, because I'd had several people wanting me to build them a model like mine. Cat wrote me back and said that the licence was Very expensive and that do to the economy being so bad they weren't doing any licencing at all. He said it was a cool toy though.

I'll more than likely put another pump on the scraper itself, due to the small size of the pump and reservoir. It will take no time to hook it up that way also.
