The tracks are not lego. It would cost at least 200 U.S. dollars to buy enough
track links to change my excavator and bulldozer tracks to lego and I would also
need 20 of the 40-toothed gears. The tracks are off a remote control dozer that
makes noise. I also got tracks from a tonka toy for my bulldozer. Soon (maybe
this weekend) I hope to get better pictures of the excavator outside. I would
have used TLC's tracks but they are not big enough for 1/17 scale models. This
excavator is almost 45cm long and the tracks are about 25 cm long.
Thanks for your comments, and I hope that the new photos are better and also
resized. There will be some new ones of the track-shifting mechanisms too,
which is very similar to Jennifer Clark's design for her excavator except that
she uses two electric motors and I use 1 Lego motor.
