CAT 345 Action Shots

Here's a nice action shot of one of a number of 345s I've hired - You can hear the rocks crash as they fall down the face. :o

Re: Hymac Excavators

Does anybody know if any particular army bought Hymacs - I've seen some 141s in military colours but not a 580c as yet. :dizzy:

Re: JCB Excavators Old & New

I will try Photobucket thanks. - This may sound stupid but I totally believe that playing with digger models and toys as a kid helps when it comes to using the real thing - what i mean is you get a birds eye view of whats happening down at the working end and this knowledge stays with you as you tra...

Re: JCB Excavators Old & New

Thought I'd fire up my big JCB 806 the other day. I was doing a clip board list prior to refurbishment this summer. I must say I just love the seventies design of this big brute - it looks so industrial and practical in a masculine big hero type of way!(nobody mention Freud) :ugeek: Anyway I love it...

Re: Hymac Excavators

Thought I'd let my fellow forum members view some publicity shots I took for when I start selling the new range of hand built, limited edition, die-cast scale models soon. They are of course hand built by our famous Mr Martyn Henley and the Hymac 580C in 1:35th scale is a complete gem. The last few ...

Re: KUBOTA RW 25

I found some more pics of my departed Kubota and it's cramped cab. I can still remember the familiar smell and the "winey" gearbox. My restored All Dig is beside it for comparison. 8-)
