Anyone ever do any scale hydraulic machinery?

Just out of curiosity.
Things like swash-plate pumps and so on.

Not me, but I'd sure be interested to see any other folks have made.

What scale are you looking to model . A gear pump would be much easier to build . Also what pressure are you thinking of useing .what volume do you need . Also what are you planing on useing to power it . Dale

I'm not planning on building anything, just curious.

Apparently there's a whole religion for scale excavating equipment. http://www.youtube.com/user/LilGiantsConstrCo

Hi folks,

I got interested in machining in order to help my RC hobby and in fact I enjoy the trucks and construction equipment most. I hope it's not against the rules or frowned upon but here is a link to a popular forum where there is someone planning to scratch build some scale hydraulic parts. People there have build some really amazing stuff (just like the folks here) Here's the link: http://www.rctruckandconstruction.com/showthread.php?t=3631

If you are interested check it out...
