MOC Valmet 832 Forwarder

[MikoL]

Hello! I am new here.

First bigger moc I've done.

Model for the basic late 80s Valmet 832 forwarder.

The model is made in 1:21 scale. The dimensions are reasonably close to the correct ones.

Activities:

- 4 pneumatic functions in the crane. Lifting/lowering, folding, extension and closing/opening of the grab.

- The grapple rotates by hand

- The crane rotates by turning the knobs.

- 6x6 wheel drive.

-4 cylinder turbo engine. (The pistons move from each tire)

- Working undercarriage at the back. (The tires travel according to the terrain.)

- The machine turns from the knob on top of the cabin.

Very cool, and very detailed!

That is an observation that did not come easy, however. Your images are way too small; rather than directly uploading, you might want to try hosting on Flickr and linking them.

Mmkay, but again, you might want to use Flickr in the future. It'll display the images better here.

@MikoL, you can get the address of each picture in your picture hosting  and just paste it here.

For example:

Very cool model and welcome to the forum!

Even if I like the tractor tires better, your tire choice in this combination is better for this model.

Thanks for the comments. The next plan is to make a Valmet harvester.
