I
n part one, I described how to build the various pieces of
this backwoods coal loader: the conveyor and supports, the
break assembly, and the receiving bin. Part one also included
a complete parts list.
Here in part 2, I add the truck receiving ramp, build the loader
base, put a roof on the conveyor, add the short conveyor at the
top of the larger conveyor, add corrugated siding and roof to the
receiving bin, and install the loader on the layout.
