Hello Frank.

I must say this is really very good, can't wait to see what you do when you get going on the kit itself the scratchbuilt dozer blade is a brilliant piece of work well done.

Frank,
Excellent work on the blade. Thanks for the step by step photos! I'm interested to see how you mount it to your vehicle. Keep us posted. Best regards, Bob

Hi all,
in the first step I have complete the blade except the painting. TIG welded steel edges and the ending ribs are done. For the connection with the Cent I first need the hull standing on the tracks. As you can see, the next field is waiting :D

Cheers
Frank
