Product Description
This 1/87 HO scale log skidder is based on a Clark 666, but has elements of other models. It is a very detailed piece, which will take time and effort to prep and ensure a good result. I do offer wheels to suit, but you supply your own axles, and I will warn you, the tires are expensive simply due to the amount of material. I’ve doubled the amount of pins and hydraulic rams you’ll need, as they will be delicate. However, feel free (and suggested!) to use styrene rod, brass or any other material you see fit to replace the pins. This piece is moveable….the blade moves up and down, the skidder itself will articulate, the front wheels will oscillate up and down, the rear boom will extend and move as well. The cab is a separate piece so one can detail the interior with glass, and put screening on the outside of the windows, as well as detail the operator compartment. The grapple is also a separate piece, as I will be offering at least two different types in the near future, as well as an arch type boom, and a ‘cable’ skidder version. The design has passed all the checks in three different software programs I use, so I’m confident it will print without issues in the Frosted Ultra Detail material, which is what you’d want to order it in to ensure the details are as crisp as possible.
