Dad and Henry certainly have wonderful machine. 
( I do not have much information, however, understand Dad home built this machine for his son.)
Controlled from the seat or remotely.  

Henry certainly has a state of the art Bulldozer and is willing to take on the big jobs too.  Pushing the DW10!

I am certain Chapter 15 is working on getting Henry into the fold.  Obviously, he and Dad have a serious infection of "Caterpillar Yellow Fever".

It is quite a sight when little Henry and his D.5 (yes, .5) all three and one half years of him and his custom built dozer appear at some of our shows. I watched people quickly get up and exit the tractor pulling contest to say hello to the pint sized "Skinner". The tractor pull folks thought there was some emergency as folks bailed from the grandstands! He will become the youngest ACMOC member and ambassador!
Proud dad exclaims it was a build that got a little bit out of hand...
If anyone has seen this dozer up close, it is so well built, you would think if came off of the assembly line.
More photos and story to follow in the magazine.

The first operator has a pretty decent blade full going on there : ) Looks relaxed and confident.

im jealous. and yes these project do tend to snowball. i bet mum doesn't know the final cost of his toy. and would probably faint if she did.

i know a couple of young lads that would be very exited to even sit on it.

instead of perfection some times we just have to accept practicality

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
