Nice :cool: We used to run a solar 225LCV, bet you don't have a solar 140LCV model :D What scale are your models?
So when are you going to replace your real 220 with a Doosan DX ;)

all the daewoo/ Doosan models are 1/40th in scale. Most of the excavator models are in 1/50th though.

The real 220 will get replaced when it starts costing us money to keep it running, it's paid for and the only cost we have on it is fuel, maintainance, ins. ect.

have you been in one of the new DX machines? Their awsome!!

No I haven't been on a new DX yet. They look like good machines, the cab looks well laid out. I don't think I'm in line for a new machine for a long time though:(

What medium do you build in? I build in 1/25th scale, styrene plastic exclusively. Kind of an outgrowth of my model truck building -- after building most evry version of model truck kit out there, I wanted loads for the lowboys, etc.
Another couple of posts and I should be able to post pics.
