A wagon type road grader

[Mik]

I just couldn't stand it any more. I simply HAD to build SOMETHING today...

So I built me a nice little road grader. It was built with parts out of my scrapbox in about 3 hours.


Basic frame is styrene, the wheels are cast aluminum, the blade brass and styrene

It's loosely based on the Russell type which were made in Minneapolis Minnesota

Looks right at home behind the Case I did back in November

Beautiful!! That driver looks suspiciously like Gus the tram driver though? bit of moonlighting I expect

Very nice.

Mik !
My grandfather operated a grader such as that many many years ago
in Lincoln Nebraska it was pulled with 3 mules.
He was the 1-st of a long line of operating engineers in the family.
