First off thank you for letting me join your forum. I can't figure out who made a couple of the models I have. My uncle modified a lot of his models so it makes it a difficult to determine who originally made them. This D8H doesn't have any markings but it might be a Sherwood. I know Ray Crawford made a lot of parts for other models so maybe the ROPS, ripper, and blade were added? You can see the chassis isn't exactly square but it appears to have been made that way.   These tracks were some random parts, I'd say they are probably 1/25 scale metal tracks. Someone was selling tracks on eBay and I know Sherwood made some for the AMT models but I don't think these are for the AMT.  I think these are attachments for a 1/48 scale excavator made by Sherwood, the design was later sold to another company and I think CCM may have sold something similar at some point.  Most of the other items are CCM or easily identifiable but the custom stuff stumps me a bit.

The dozer certainly looks like Sherwood. Just so you know; it's Ray Clifford, not Crawford.
Who did the large scale A-C scraper?

Sorry, Ray Crawford is someone related to a totally different hobby! The electrons in my brain misfired a bit there.
The A-C is a TS-200 model and I'm not sure who made it. I sold it to a collector today but I can take more photos of it before shipping out if anyone is curious about more details on it.

The dozer is a Sherwood model. I have one in my collection. The tracks were over runs by CCM that were sold to collectors.
I had some of those at one time.
The winch is a 1/48 CCM dresser winch. I have those in my collection also and the shear does look to be Steel City.
Hope this helps.
Keith

Keith Thank you very much for the insight Keith, I really appreciate it. My uncle loved scale models and I know he'd want the extra parts to go help someone detail out their model. I have another one of the Sherwood rippers sitting on the shelf as well but given the nature of his models I'm guessing it won't fit anything but a Sherwood D8H.

Still hoping you'll post some photos of the A-C TS-200.
