I would love to see this up close and pick the mechanics brain about this build and try putting one together for my town to put on small scale logging that kids could easily operate during holiday and summer time events. I live in Forks,WA and theres an old Northwest in not to bad shape that runs but sitting next to the towns only grocery store ,this is the best smaller scale of an NW hands down that I've ever came across that's operational. Give the builder a big 👍 from the PNW if you would sir, on his solid piece of machinery he has made for himself. I actually know that would be very handy for over here where I'm working with fisheries on restoring salmon population was just looking on the internet different ideas on how to rig up a dredge line 😮 so we can move mud and sludge that has built up over the years where these old fish barriers were installed years ago and now they're wanting them all removed and updated With Beaver analog dams, or a man-made Beaver dam to hold back the loose muddy debris. Started this new career 2 1/2 years ago and love it,but when i come across cool builds like this my old logger mechanic job that i will always be in heartand mind screams build this and start now! Thankyou very much for sharing this footage of this one of a kind machine in action again. God bless and keep your head on a swivel sir, Jon H.

Great piece of engineering, nice working excavator.

[@stacyp4534]

That is so cool. Awesome machine and it works good.

[@73DiamondReo]

Yes it does!

[@lewiemcneely9143]

SWEET! LOoks like a modified Hendrix bucket! HA!

[@73DiamondReo]

all homemade

[@lewiemcneely9143]

@@73DiamondReo Notice the HA!

[@heartland96a]

Very clever ,one can see the controls working just like a full size machine . Your skills are improving with experience . Its pretty much to scale , is the empty bucket weighted proportionately as well ?

[@73DiamondReo]

not sure. the owner takes this machine around to a bunch of shows

[@eebygumful]

Excellent , I love it just think a smaller bucket would make things easier.

[@Leatherface123.]

You need to angle the teeth downward and make the bucket Handel round and square like It works a lot better with the square handle Unless you’ve tried that I also suggest that you angle the boom a little more down I’m just giving suggestions

[@73DiamondReo]

im sure the builder will read it at some point

[@UnitCrane514]

I think using a drum brake would have more feel too it over a disk brake.

[@slicknick4898]

Drum brake would have had more feel, but as with any project i used what i already had,the disc brake parts from another project

[@ЕЛКОРДОБЭСТОРЕРО]

Bucket quite big for the dragline. But it is nice.

[@finster101]

Neat machine, thanks for sharing! Where and when is this show, if I'm close enough, I'd like to attend. Thanks
