I'm new in this forum and what I can say to introduce myself is that I'm 23 years old and I'm from France, so sorry in advance if my english is not always correct.
Two years ago I did a 1:32 scale model of the early Caterpillar Challenger 65 because I really loved this tractor. I achevied this by using a cad software and then I 3D printed. I even made a kit of it and here is the result. This tractor was painted by a friend of mine.
But now I moved onto an other project which is to do the replica at the same scale of the Caterpillar 4 WD tractor. For those who don't this tractor , in the early 80's the Caterpillar teams were working on two projects of ag tractor : a rubber belt tractor/challenger and an articulated tractor and for some reasons the first one wins over the second one.
I don't have a lot of informations about the articuled prototype so I would be very pleased if someone could help me by telling me what became all the prototypes or sharing some pictures. This would be awesome.
Here is how looks my cad drawing for the moment, it's nice but I'm stuck with the articulation, the rear of the tractor and many details !

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
