Ok it has been a rough fewmonths. My caster is just about done with first run of the demo attachments, for those of you still waiting. I have been working alot more at work so a lot of my time for models has been cut down quite, not to mention I broke my right wrist and my email was hacked once again. So those of you who have emailed me in the past few weeks and I have not responded you can email me at niklscalemodels at gmail .com. I know there are a few people I was talking to by email and now I working on getting access to my old emails from my hotmail account.

That being said I took advantage of alittle time I had the past 2 days. Anthony posted a vid on his facebook of a Volvo EC700 with a large slope bucket. Got me thinking about building one. I do not have a 700 but I do have a 870 so I went with that machine.
This bucket is 10 feet wide and tilts with 4 cylinders. Capacity is 6 yards





You can see the size of the bucket with the 963

Looks AWESOME! Just a quick question, but when do you think the 330/336 mass excavation bucket be available again? I've been wanting one.

Nice work! Sounds like you have watched my mate Rille or Alexanders film. They have documented a EC700C with a Sarameko slopebucket.

Rille have built a model of the same bucket, for his EC700B. Quick Coupler is also a self made custom of his, it is a SMP155 coupler, same as the machine in the clip have.

Pics are used by premisson of Rille.

I think it was Rille's video yeah, that's an incredible job he did there too!. As I already told you Jay, that bucket looks stunning!

And you should get my package in about 2/3 weeks!
