Mucas gracias as this has now made my wish list! It's much larger than I thought it was AND, it is larger than the 1/16th diecast John Deer dozers I have too. Pretty cool! Now I must do the same here today... start back to buildin'! Jeff

Leave it to Israel to take something as cool as a bulldozer and make it a million times as awesome. Can;t wait to see this thing all painted.

Man T, now you're raiding the spice rack! Nice update on the Doobi, and you're making me hungry for baked rolls for some reason...

Forgot the bars were not out yet, I remember the discussion on the Voyager parts but forgot it was a future issue. As there are three different models of this unit I can see where a future build would be OK. I forget so much anymore.

When one looks back at Israel's military vehicles you have to marvel at the simplicity with which they many times have taken use vehicles and made modifications and turned them into front line battle vehicles without re-inventing the wheel in doing so.

Am with guys... glad you placed it next to JP... what a huge difference in scale!!! I didn't realize it was that huge. Almost like that PT 109 you have sitting somewhere on your bench...

Bill - A man needs to do what a man needs to do!!! Sugar and spice and all that other junk!! (puke)Thanks btw!! Hang in there for a bit.... Bones - All good...forget where the hell I am some days!! Bruce - Thanks buddy! Size doesn't always matter but in this case Ian - Thanks my friend!! Hoping it takes me to the weathering.. [img src=" inscale.org/pub/Smileys/default/shocked.gif"]Andy - Thanks for reminding me about that...pal! Mark - Appreciate...thanks! The L70 was a blast!! Bringing this one off the shelf brought back the fond memories!!! This is an update...but not really!! I managed to dismantle the build to prepare for the prime...then the compressor went to S**T!! I have two larger compressors to draw from but need to dig them out and run some lines...tomorrow!! Just one of those days all around, so it's best I never got to priming!!

We hope for better luck with the compressor tomorrow and I often find that its better to have a mechanical breakdown than an artistic one where there are runious results, fate or something often heads of some really bad things. Good luck with the plumbing job, there's only three things you need to know to be a plumber. 1.) That sh*t always runs downhill, 2.) Keep your fingers out of your mouth and 3.) Payday is on Friday.

Thanx Bones, should be uneventful of a rehab...just a good kick in the rhythm. I was on the general contractor side of things so so the three thing for the plumber to know was what day you start, what day they had to do the finish and third was that Crack Kills!!

Well that shows the difference in out ages, back when I was contracting the workers were not so prone to Crack and still willing to start on time and make every attempt to finish on time and drink good cold beer although times were a changing.

Not too far off Bones!! I transitioned from the hammer to the gun and 12 hours of work was considered a half day!! Still do, but more refined. I blow S**T up fro a living now in the interest of science for and insurance company but still work 'with' my dad on specialty things. Sill work is where it's at...jack up a house, change rotted sills and get out!! Usually in a day!! Like printing money!! Thanks Mence! Glad you have enjoyed this so far!! Yeah, put another on the list for further on down the road!! Worth it!! Thanks Jeff...the top one is close brotha', might have a twist though...the bottome one is sweet too but would certainly need to be in 1/72!! LOL!!!! Still trying to get my Arse in gear and move the compressor!! Few things stand in the way foist!!

Thanks again Bones!! OK...Harbor Freight to the rescue!! Not my first choice of compressors but it certainly fit the bill....I stopped by the local store and grabbed a quick and dirty compression stand in!! Working beautifully!! Not the biggest update in the world but you get the idea what is happening. I managed to get all of the parts coated tonight and will move forward now that I have air!! I will shoot some more pics tomorrow and then I can start laying some color!! Thanks for keeping tabs on me!!
