LS its "Schaaaa Wingg" haha~could that drag clod be any sexier? This should be the new mud rail class, just run these things through a long strip of mud to see who wins

Great Rigs John!

It is always great seeing your tubers, all of them are works of art. That brazing flesh wound is something viscious, I don't think you'll forget that tuber you made that day.

Wow! The master of tubers is at it again! So much for selling my 1/8th scale Grave Digger body now.... I just found an idea for my winter project! Hope you won't mind making another one but I think I'd prefer a Digger #20 instead. I'm already looking for pics after seeing your other post. I also have another frame I have in mind as well....

Wow! I must say that grave digger in 1/8th scale is one of the nicest diggers I have ever seen. I can only imagine how its gonna look when its finished. Somebody is a lucky guy. :tmb

I love the proportions on this digger, it seems like this 8th scale body and chassis are just right for the big clod tires, the larger 3/16th tubing is more realistic as well. I think this is my favorite digger chassis yet!

This is a great looking truck. Whoever got it is very lucky. Hopefully they will finish it off with a interior and items to bring it to life. It looks fantastic! :tmb

Just like the ones that are on it except in aluminum:tong
No, the stock plastic units have those weird lines going acrossed them...they are very different looking, if the alloy units were black they would be better looking.

Anyway Im very impressed with the chassis and the way it seems to fit the body as if it were designed specifically for that body (back of cage goes all the way back to the shell), then he used larger 3/16 steel, and I think choosing the larger 8th scale was brilliant (cant believe there isnt more 8th scale tube monsters out there).
I think the proptions for this scale are way more accurate. This may wind up being my favorite rc digger to date!

There can't be but so many larger tubers, as there are not that many larger bodies to choose from.
And of the larger bodies, it's harder to always pick a real truck to copy that may have used those couple of larger bodies that are out there.
They call them 1/8th, but they are really, just Realisitically a truer 1/10th
