I thought it looked good before!

Have you thought about a belt guard on that primary belt?

My Dozer mechanic said keep the track tight enough to stay on... any tighter increases undercarriage wear.

I had my D3 tracks too tight the first time I did it...

You will probably have to make several small adjustments as everything wears in...

As too belts... some are much better than others.

I used to have lots of belt problems back in the 1980's... then I switched to Dayco gator-back premium belts and have not had to change one since...

Some of the industrial belts are quite good.

Great project by the way and outstanding craftsmanship!

One of my daughters stopped by for a visit yesterday afternoon and I asked her if she would like to pose for a photo shoot on my latest project. The results are below...
..So that wasnt the photoshoot for the commercial sales brochure... ;)

Rawinok,

When you get some down time away from your excellent fabrication, will you post some more details of how you slowed down your drill press. Every since I saw that it's been eating at me to do the same thing to mine.

After witnessing what her father has accomplished I'd wager she is brilliant and talented as well!:):thumbsup:

Wow that dozer looks great! I love the controls and gauges. Nicely done. :thumbsup:

How are the tracks working out?

Did you let your daughter take it for a test run?! :D

In the words of Red Green,"If they dont find you handsome then they should find you handy" By seeing the dozer your daughter must of gotten her looks from her Mother. LOL:laughing::p:laughing:

Oh ya the drill press thing too.

+1 on that one from me.

I'll bet her boyfriends had one heck of an interview with Dad before being able to date her. :thumbsup:
