Here is a picture of a model of Joe's 9ft AC one-way that I finished recently. I had opportunity to see and measure it at the Orange Spectacular show this past summer and had to build a model of it. The model raises, lowers, and stears like the real machine. If you would like to see more pictures of this build and/or my other projects checkout my website at: ACmodelsofarizona.weebly.com Armand

Another outstanding creation. My son tells me that CAT spends big bucks for artists like you to create models for them. |

Thanks for the comments!!!
John, I actually had a toy manufacturer contact me about building prototypes for him. I declined, so then he advertised a model building contest so he could get ideas free of charge. :>) I am sure CAT has deeper pockets!! Armand

Armand,
That is another beautiful piece of work. Did you make the disk blades or is there an outfit that makes them for model builders?

John, there is no source for the disk blades that I know of. I make my own using a die (concave/convex) turned out of aluminum rod, cut the disks. and then press them using a vice. Armand
