Have ya. You local lad around Coachford & Dripsey.

Is that Buckleys 7700 up in Peake.

Ohh yes. Another NH must add to the collection.

I make & weld these barriers alot in my line of work & Cow Pow Barriers for O DONOVAN Enginnering LTD. The standard fixed barriers are 4.6m long & 900 mm high for the ones that sit on top of a low wall. A gate style one is usully 1.2m high & lenght wise ,its made to suit the entrance . Usully between 4 & 5 m long. Distance between the diagonals is about 300mm. www.odonovaneng.ie

Its the best tractor mag by far. Have not missed an issue. Keep up the good work. Id love if ye did a feature on the overlooked little Ford 4000,4600 & 4610 tough. My fav tractors of all time. Im always counting down the days till it hits the shelfs. :)

You could kinda see this was going to happen. All the colours.

The mower is finshed. Ye can have a look in Implement conversions page.

Thanks lad. Wont be carpet farming tough.Bit too old for that crack. Its into the display cabinet with this yoke. Cheers man thanks.

Cheers lad. Thanks.

So now ive 2 mower combs on the go. Keep both JD & NH /Kuhn fans happy. Who needs a BIG M! Will the rake keep up the pace tough? Need a bigger rake now i think!

Pic from the front.Pto shaft added in.

More pictures. I was going to use the JD 6920 in the backround instead of the 7530. But the 6920 can stay carting the silage. Bit more power needed id say .

More pics. With the rear mower & harvester.

Fits well. Even tough i used JD branded paint. The colour is still a bit off. Must be the Siku paint on the tractor.

Im using a Siku JD 7530 to take this front mower along with the Britains JD 535 rear mower. I had to modify the front linkage on the tractor. I used a front linkage from my IMBER FORD 5640 trimed to fit & painted both linkage & Mower using JD paint from the spray can.

Pic 2. For the top of the mower i used spare bits from old Airfix & Revell model planes & stuff cut & trimed to shape for the hydraulic lift arms,pto , canopy 3pt linkage, etc.

Made this JD 131 front mower. My first implement conversion. I used a TIM TOYS DEUTZ front mower as my base..

Yeah, I used the fat wheeled 5610 to do my 8210. I used a Britains 7710 front grill that did need a bita trimming for it tough.

Went to a local festival were there was a few vintage classics on display. The usual MF TE20s,135,2#165,3#Dexta,2#Major,Pre force 2000,3000. 2#4000,4#5000,7000,2600,4600,6600,7600,Nufield 65,DB 990,996,1290,JD 4020 & a few more.

Ok lads. Got the spray can of JD paint & tryed it out. Its certainly better than the first method i was using. So i painted up the front mower & noticed the colour matched the Britains rear mower conditioner quite well,but was a tad bit darker than the Siku JD 7530 tractor that im going to be using to take the mower combo. But im quiet happy with it anyhow. So still a few finshing touches to do to both the front mower & the front linkage on the tractor. Will post pics very soon. Cheers guys.

Heck! They must be worth a fortune.

You might have to do a bit of trimming alright Steve ,but nothing major. You probably will have to paint the parts also ,cause if you have any useable parts on your models already ,you will have to paint them all along with the new parts from D Towse the same colour. Clean the old bits of grit & dust also before painting. If your going to do it ,your better off doing it right first day lad.

Yeah i sould have tought of getting a can of it from day 1. I only kind of started doing tractor conversions 6 months ago with my FORD 8210 & 8830 . But this JD mower is my first shot at doing an implement. Its going fine bar the colour mishap. You will learn as you go along i spose. Cheers for that lad.

Yeah might do that . Not a bad idea!

I will put up some pics next week if i can when i hope to have it finished.
