Hi guys,
I am currently undertaking the build of my first laser-cut timber kit. It is the neat looking Martinsburg Coal Mine from AMB.
I plan for it to have a detailed interior, so I was wondering if anyone could advise whether the Bachmann O scale Log Skidder would fill the bill in the Cable House as the (non-operating) drive unit for the ore bucket cable?
I envisage it being permanently bolted (ie: glued) to the floor, and wish to run the cables up to the lifting chute.
I have not seen one of these things 'in the flesh', but the available depth in my shed is 3¾" actual, and the 'Skidder is listed as about 4"..... :o :o :o
Anyone have any input?
Many thanks.
Hi Anubis,
Probably it will work fine. I looked at mine, and it looks like the works are attached to the skid with 4 screws, making removal easy. The unit without the skid measures about 2.375"L x 1.25"W x1.5"H without the stack, which is a separate piece.

Thanks, Bill.
That's what I was hoping to hear! ;D
