Hi, I am not sure where to put my build blog of my CAT 320 Excavator



Hope there is interest in this topic as I don't see many excavators here in this forum.

Here some pictures of the costruction of the arm

and the boom

some images of the excavator body and cabin

Very cool, did you make the kit yourself?

PM sent

some pictures of the parts for the 4 buckets

















and recently I include also the backplate in the alu set if anyone wishes to make a dirt/rock separator

Very cool, is this going to be an RC model or static?
What is your asking price? My grandson would love this he has just about worn out his plastic version of an excavator with a wired remote.

after a very busy period, I found some time again to continue the project. I have made some modifications to the baseplate of the body and the connection plate for the boom to receive the CTI slip ring.

final fixation of the counterweight. I used a strong fixing glue to hold everything in place.
