How is this trailer coming along mate and please could you measure the diameter of the wheels as I think I've found some similar sized siku one's for my own conversion
Not sure yet Cerin as I havent even started building them yet but I thought I'd base them on the britains marston trailer.
Also not too sure whether to do grain or silage or both
Would anyone please have any pics or info on j.h ford silage trailers at all,as I was thinking of maybe buliding two in 1/32.
All I think I know at the moment is that they must be made in East sussex as a few local farmers have them.
Cheers Jamie
Brilliant work Sean,I'm foaming at the mouth looking at that convo
How come you have screws holding the fronts on would the ttv hub pins not hold them on
Not to worry Sean,I'm looking forward to making another two soon as I have enjoyed doing this one so much and have learnt what to do different as I had to repostion the axles to take the trelles as they are slightly bigger diameter than the super's singles.
Maybe a richard western or west next
Thanks for the kind comments lads,
Tris,I broke a bit of the trailer when I reassembled it so it needs to be done again properly.
Sean,thanks for the advice,I thought about doing that 10 seconds after I broke it I've used a slightly smaller rod that is a perfect fit know
This trailer is now only going to be a protoype as they are a few things I think I could do better on a second build and I think I'll paint the trelleborgs white or silver
Anyway I'd thought I'd put up some pics of it withe trelles and super singles on
That's a peach of a combine tris,I remember when I scived off school and walked about 5 miles to go down the jd dealers back in 2000 with 30 quid armed to buy one of those as it was on display in a glass cabinet,it looked glorious.
And then the partsmen told me the price and then I said na I'll leave it for now and just bought an ertl 6410
Thanks for putting up pictures Sean,I would really like to get one but it just doesn't seem right that you have to do this after spending 20 odd quid on a model.
I may be bombarding you with pm's in a couple of weeks about fixing it
Could anyone who has the 5480 be kind enough to put a picture up of this steering problem as I'm thinking of buying one but am also thinking of waiting until the standard box comes as maybe the problem may have been sorted by whenever that comes
Some plonker getting hold of my credit card details and spending money on the net ,and I've never used it to purchase goods from the internet so beware
Thanks for the earlier advice lad's.
Just out of interest I was in my local b&q today and saw that there was load's of different colour's in the plastikote range and it is a pound cheaper than halford's 300ml of spray paint at ?4.49p.
