Hi everyone,
I'm after a kango 426 body.I've been looking for three years now without success.If anyone is willing to part with one I will pay a fair price.It seems nearly impossible to find,maybe its because I'm in the UK.PLEASE HELP,I'm going crazy!!!!

It's the model of hammer drill used for the body of the Aliens motion tracker.

Hi br64fan,

I'm afraid that you could really drive yourself crazy, searching forever for a kango!!! But there is an alternative that might just save your sanity!!!

Dewalt SDS


Kango 426


What you are looking for is a Dewalt SDS Hammer Drill. They make a range of different models that are based on the old Kango design. They are readily avaiable in the UK, but brand new working examples are, of course, not exactly cheap!!! However, as you don't need one in working order, you might be able to pick up a broken one quite cheaply

Here's a couple of links, to new ones, to get you started.

Hope that this has been of some help to you, good look and good hunting!

Have a better one,

Mike.

Still looking

It's nearly impossible to find anywhere, for what it's worth. MR made a pretty decent replica, which you can still pick up from time to time.

Unless you really know what to look for the MR and a scratch built one are identical. I had both.

Praise the lord,finally....finally found one in good shape .Well that took up about three and a half years of searching. Honestly,anyone thinking of starting a motion tracker project bear this in mind....Don't do it.most of the part are quite easy to find but the main body is a nightmare and drives you to obsession .Most of the people who have one crank up the price to that of a small car or they are very poor recasts .I'm a happy bunny now and would like to say thanks to all those of whom helped in my fruitless search.I'm off,lots of drilling and sanding to do

[joberg]

Good news man! As you said, lot's of sanding and grinding and cutting...you have my sympathy
