Pictures from our archives- this photo accompanied the evolution of the single axle scraper article in our June 2018 magazine.⁣
⁣
Caption: Largest of the LaPlant-Choate single axle scrapers was the model C-81 with a rating of 8½ cubic yards. This particular example appears to be on its first outing and is being pulled by a Caterpillar RD-7, These scrapers had the weight and power to do quite a bit of damage quickly as this example shows in rocky clay. ⁣

⁣
Caption: Shown dumping topsoil behind a Caterpillar D7, this LaPlant-Choate Model C-41 was the smallest of three different sized single axle scrapers the company offered.⁣
With a capacity of almost four cubic yards, it was an ideal sized tool for small townships that needed to shift a bit of earth.⁣

⁣
Caption: Heil’s venture into this particular area of the scraper market was the model CR, a 3½ cubic yard machine, shown here in fully dumped configuration. It differed from most of its single axle competitors by being all-cable controlled and is pictured behind an International TD-6. These were not popular scrapers and photos of them are extremely rare.⁣
