What about part 4700 (Backhoe scoop)? Does it exist? Only appeared in 8862 and

Yes, there is an ldraw file for 4700 created by a Mr. Guus-Jan Wijnhoven.  It
says "Created with stl2dat conversion tool".   This gives me an idea.  I have
been working on modifying the 10x8 excavator bucket model to try to convert it
into the 14x8.  I have been making some progress but I suck horribly at it so
far.  Sounds like maybe I could make a solid model of the part in CATIA (which
would be no problem), and then convert it.  Where would I find one of these
conversion tools?

You can find stl2dat here:

LDView 4.0 exports to STL, although that functionality hasn't been tested all
that much:

http://ldview.sourceforge.net/

If you do end up having problems with LDView's STL export, let me know, and I'll
see what I can do.
