hi everyone..

long time no post

just curious, on any of your farms you own or work on.. do you have a drier serviced by ALLMET electrical control systems & driers or JW installations?

i am the new service engineer apprentice..

thanks.

loving them!

nice to come back on here to some good conversions!

keep it up bud.

i think it was worth it marky, the bloke lives near me and came to look at my house for sale haha!

had a good chat with him, as usual the prices put us off.

has to be the 135, such a small model and very usefull, although i do like the renault 155.54 turbo haha...

and........

there was a pair of yellowe 135'S near me, the pair came from massey new and were ordered in the yellow colour, they were used by the council until one was damaged in a fire and scraped (shes in a nearby yard somewhere??) and the other one was sold in auction and used as a scraper tractor and had a hegdecutter fitted to her, and finnally she was sold to a private collector, dont know hwere it is now though, but i remember it well with its little yellow cab and topper...

sorry to change the subject just thought i would share that....

oh oh oh tm190 for me! im sick of the amount of green! lets see a big beast!

id love a 190............

believe it or not but thtas real mud, sprayed on laquer and then pasted it in soil! its still holding on well!!!!!

does anyone have any pics of real guzzlers?????

luckily not gav ha ha!, mothers, they have green carpet and good lighting so perfect picture room.

might get some pictures of loading later, just some sceanrio pictures etc............................am chuffed wiv her

hehe ;D

what does everyone think????

here we go hahahahaha, i had fun with this bit.............

looks quite realistic i thought............

thanks fb, yes college is good, go back tonight, supposed to be at work experiance today but i left my overalls at coll and my second cousin isnt at work today so will be boring!!!!

i have loads of storys and pictures to post when i have time...........

on the subject of the slurry guzzler.............

not many about i no that, but the majority are made by 'slurry guzzler' and are yellow with red wheels, they work by reversing the entire tanker into a ramped lagoon. the tanker has a vacuum but also a corkscrew system at the back for tougher sludge, they are prone to blocking and clogging with 'biily band' but the later models resolved this common problem i beleive. the positive features of these machines are there tough build, quick fill and i mean quick fill hence 'guzzler' , and the new ones are all galvanised and stainless, however down sides are the horsepower requirement and the blockage factor, plus not everyone has a ramped lagoon. however on mine you will notice an exit to one side, you can fill via pipes from here. and it can be used to side spread to, and my added extra was top fill lid :D :) it does it all.................

can anyone get me the decals????

thanks....

two more............

more to come this afternoon like i said...........

hi everyone, always had a thing for slurry guzzlers. and you never see many around, dont even start on the manufacturer :D

so i decided the farm would look nice with one, its made from a britains 'milk tanker' tank, lonestar wheels, dowel, plastic pipin etc..........

doesnt look too bad, i will have nore picturesw this afternoon of it 'used' should be messy!!!!

thoughts welcome please..............

sven....

fantastic ian, i will deffinatly be wanting one of these some time, however im only interested in hi-spec livery..........

any chance you will do this livery, you only need decals...........

good job!!!!!!!

its better than zetors  : :

am not knocking them though............... you got to try them first and youre mind is altered!

nice machine luke................

those wheels will look beasty  ;)

im not saying fendtsrule.............

but poor ronnie isnt going to get the full size version.........

back on topic, am i right?????

manitou all the way.......

merlo

jcb

john deere

manitous kick a$$

and a uh version would sell like wildfire!!!!!

looks nice pdc..............

i much prefer the big chuby ones though on big tyres  :D :D

good work :)

great work!!!!!!! love the dust affect........

its based on the ros fiat baler isnt it?? or is this another of youre complete scratch builds?

whats even better is ive found youre web adress via youre user name   :D i enjoy looking at youre website   :D

the yellow and black version was auto-way?

and the orange/red one came with the white unimog, its in the britains guide........

good job pdc!

i know a few farms which would think that was new  : :

i will always remember my lonestar international  :D :D it was repainted very similar ;D

hi all.........

all ive done is took my old 6600 and changed the rear wheels............. but for some reason i like it and it looks quite small.................. im going to make a rotavator in the future when i have time, and i think i will have it as a hortic tractor....... well my farms handy tractor.............

looks like a ford 5000 now!

p.s i am buying my moulding kit soon and the slurry stirrers will be back on track along with the pumps.....

thanks...........

sven

very nice...........

that is very smilar to the bomford turbo tiller........... me and my friend always comment how dangerous turbotillers look, you can use them at a high speed! and when you see them in action flinging soil everywere and those blades flinging around like a powerharrow, going full pelt  ha ha! fixed to a marshall......... well you stand back for sure  :D

just came across this FM, and i must say WOW!!!!!!!! what an acheivment..................

everything ive wanted to do you have suceeded with!!!!! and you have inspired me, when i get the space i hope to make a detailed farm.........

but this is really something..............

great work fm, and keep it up!!!!!!!!!!!

p.s love the little 135 with the cab  :P ;D

i might have to go OT if theres a grey girl up for grabs  :D :D

go on marky, crash the server using OT tactics  :D :D

well from what ive learnt at college, from what i remember (hangovers) you can use them on stubble feilds, might take another run over, but it will start the proccess. the springs on the tines simply stop obstructions, but also create a 'flciking affect' on the soil if you can see what i mean..........

you do know something matty ha ha!
