I'm looking at getting a plug and play 250w LED to take its place. it says to bypass the ballast, this means connect the hot wires in directly into the bulb fitting? Any opinions to which LED to...

The start of the main frame has begun. The center section that goes around the scout.

This reminds me of the first house I rented. It had a detached two car garage that ran off of a single 15a breaker somewhere underground. To run my 120v Mig welder, plasma cutter, and air compressor I went to home Depot and got a 100' 10AWG extension cord. Plugged it into the dedicated 20a...

Still refining the scout. Added the pitch fork so the crane hooks don't slide around. The balance of the box depends on the ever changing load. Some hoists are balanced dead center (front hole front hole) and the bigger hoists are balanced using one front and one back hole. Here are two things...

I special ordered american swivel and brake lock casters for my push around cart. My large cart has tractor tires for outside. It's this big cart I need the outriggers for.

Here are the latest cad drawings for the steering. If you have any input on outriggers or landing gear like welding tables please share!

Few parts came in for the motor cart. (2) 52" led light bars for upper rollcage front and back. (2) spot light led one for each side facing down. And I bolted the roll cage to the scout.

Awesome info. Dates it back to at least the 50's. I'm going to pay better attention at yard sales and auctions now.

Here is the clamp getting cleaned up to weld. Took it to the belt slander after cutting off some old tack welds. I'll hit it with the sand blaster before painting it.

Yeah, the scout gets lifted into its position on the big cat... but what if the big one needs lifted too... And It won't move unless my hands are on the controls. And no I'm not making it remote control. "KIT, come pick me up" It's still in phase one of the build which is heavily modify the...

So I've been working on this tool cart powered by an old medical skoter. rolling mechanics workstation with winch has a winch that lifts my rolling cart (the scout) into position. Whenever I make a post updating my current status, I call the large mothership part of it something different. I...

Tig welded the top bar. Vise came in. Got a donor motor lined up for the large frame.
