Here's my First Gear Wittke Front-Loader dumping 8 hand-made styrene dumpsters and 2 First Gear Dumpsters followed by a trip to the First Gear "dump"...Enjoy! Remember to rate and let me know what you think!

Super nice garbage truck, I want one!!! Gabe

[@gtpmike2000]

hey buddy great job you did a nice job with the dumpsters to nice looking lids on them to like the different sizes

[@TrashMonkey22]

I actually have 3! I bought one on ebay back when they were packaged separate from the trucks, and I have 2 FL's!

[@TrashMonkey22]

The OCC cage front is vinyl window screen. My grandma had about 10 square feet of extra she gave to me, so I used for making OCC cages!

[@Shane1163]

great job on those dumpsters! 5*

[@RubenAvilaIC]

Super real scale model & nice demo!

[@TrashMonkey22]

The styrene should be available in most hobby stores, and I get the pain t at Wal-Mart!

[@TrashMonkey22]

I built them all myself. I use styrene to make all the pieces and then use model glue to assemble them!

[@TrashMonkey22]

Thanks! All of the containers are built using real-life specs, so the sizes are extremely accurate. The lids and pockets are the hardest part. On a good day, I can build up to 6 dumpsters in one day...Provided I don't get too bored or frustrated lol...

[@TrashMonkey22]

Thanks! They take me about an hour each to make (not counting paint and decals) provided I'm not distracted :-)

[@pepsimarch]

Destiny or not? I watched this when I was 6 years old,& now I got to this video again while watching GTA IV! Also,I didn't have a UA-cam account when I last watched this,I'm now 17 & have my own UA-cam account!

[@TrashMonkey22]

Yup, I make these out of styrene! Go ahead and ask any questions you want!

[@TrashMonkey22]

When these trucks first came out in '02/03'...I almost forgot! I have a fourth diecast dumpster! I painted it burgundy and put old WM logos and recycling decals on it!

[@TrashMonkey22]

Yep, I use Evergreen Scale Models 0.75mm Styrene for the containers, 0.4mm for the lids, and various strips for the details...I also rectangular tubing for the pockets...

[@TrashMonkey22]

Actually, I do have the old brown logos on the brown containers, you just can't tell in this vid because of UA-cam's reduced quality...

[@TrashMonkey22]

The material is Evergreen Scale Models .75 mm styrene, the paint is Krylon Fusion for Plastics spray paint, and as far as the decals, I printed them myself on a laser printer.

[@TrashMonkey22]

Maybe sometime...There's only 2 problems though...
1. I'm having probs. with my camera
and 2. Both my ASL's have damage to the grabbers, so it looks like I'm gonna have to buy a new ASL :-(
Once I have those 2 problems fixed, I'll gladly make an ASL vid!

[@GatorJake12]

Nice truck, Nice dumpsters you should put the brown WM logo on the brown dumpsters

[@rempledisposal]

the picture at the end is kool

[@TrashMonkey22]

Not anytime soon! I have just enough containers for my route right now! I may decide to sell one or two on ebay later on after I build more of my own, though! If I do, I'll let you know!

[@rd1027]

[@TrashMonkey22]

Thanks!

[@wasteland24]

[@TrashMonkey22]

That happened to my first one...

[@huckster78]

im 20 years old but i bet that truck would keep me occupied for hours,

[@TrashMonkey22]

Sure thing!

[@TrashMonkey22]

Try ebay maybe...ummm...I buy it at HobbyTown USA, so I'd try searching their website maybe...

[@streetroyalty1]

I have that sweet model also however the rear door hinge snapped on mine! A little brittle!

[@rd1027]

On the OCC cage, did you use an evergreen product for the screen or is that window type screen?

[@GatorJake12]

Oh, ok I also do on my brown ones.
