Awesome work, Greg. Love the white paint schemes - just wish I could afford them! - Dan

Greg,
Is it safe to assume with all your knowledge there isn't really a solution for the hydraulic cylinders?

Thanks for the kind words Weserhutte, Unfortunately the blade is just too heavy. The cylinders are metal with O Rings that provide the resistance. On top of that the piece that connects the hydraulic cylinders to the dozer itself rotates as HiMoBo only attached it with one screw on each side. The only way that I could think of fixing that would be to drill another hole and pin the blade in the desired position (which may detract from the appearance of the model) Greg
