It would be nice if there was an LCD mod with the CAT logo for you to place on the side....

@Marredone While flukes happen, I would have let ya know if I had any real issues with them =) Glad to hear you like them !

Haven't had any issues with the tracks myself. They scare me but they work by gum. lol

He has the favours of both Lord Klang and Lady Clang. May the Odds of Broken Physics be always on your side.

Seems like a few people don't like the tracks, lot of negativity, wouldn't mind more feedback.

@Marredone These were nice because they are so simple they are not very heavy, however, at present, put pressure on a thin plate block, and things have a way of phasing through them, the real trick I guess was really getting the right about of tension, though I could probably add a link.

Yeah chains of hinges always scare me. Really nice setup though, very much enjoyed digging through how you did it :steamthumbsup:

@Marredone the excavator itself is very stable, I have the limits set to avoid clang, the tracks, seem stable, but thin blocks have the issue of phasing, and it is not unheard of it wander away from it for an hour and come back to find it is no longer there.

@LeeTheFlea Thanks bud.

How does this not clang out? I'm more impressed by that than anything. I tried similar things a few times and clang imploded it each time.
