NEWS FLASH! MEGA Watertanker Set

Within our group of Caterpillar collectors are builders who built various custom versions of Watertankers.

This gave us the idea to see if there might be need to bring a complete set, consisting of spray heads and a spray gun, based on the brand MEGA, the specialist from America for over 30 years and market leader in the field of Watertankers built on the chassis of existing OEM construction machines.
  • MEGA Watertanker Set
The MEGA Watertanker Set will as yet consist of four spray heads and a spray gun and casted from white metal material. The set can be applied to an Caterpillar Articulated Dump Truck, Off-highway Truck or Wheel Tractor-Scraper.

On the pictures you can see examples of the masters of the spray heads and the spray gun which are going to be used to make the molds.

If you are interested feel free to sign up without any obligations through info@minimovers.nl and we will keep you further informed of the status of this project.

We are looking forward for your reactions,

Gertjan, Ad and Wouter

UPDATE! The making of...a Caterpillar D10T with Push Blade

Custom scale model builder Gertjan Veld has recently started his next project of building a Caterpillar D10T Track-Type Tractor with Push Blade by using the Caterpillar D10T Track-Type Tractor from Norscot in 1:50th scale.

Today I added the third update of this "The making of... a Caterpillar D10T Track-Type Tractor with Push Blade". This episode shows you how Gertjan Veld takes the original scale model from Norscot and both kits in hand and makes some major adjustments at some points and improves to end up as accurate as possible. You will be amazed with the high standards he sets!

It is our goal for the coming period in the "Making of...a Caterpillar D10T Track-Type Tractor with Push Blade" to show you how this custom model will be achieved. 

Gertjan will share his building skills through its construction photos with little notes to keep us informed of his progress. Gradually it shows the making of a unique model of the Caterpillar D10T Track-Type Tractor with Push Blade.

Enjoy reading & watching!
