    Pics needed of D10N wood chip dozer...

    I posted the same topic on DHS. I saw the Craig blade but didn't see the D8N. I saw the other but the pic of the D8N was a lot more helpful. Next step is to find specs, really that all I need. I'm going to build a woodchip blade for my Ertl D10N and maybe a Norscot D10T. Thanks guys!
