There are big changes in my area too and Case seem to be net losers...

Valtra dealer still independent from main Agco dealer tho.

It's actually a glass fibre 'cane' used for marking out trial plots. They're about 6mm in dia = 193mm roughly 8 inch auger. Easy to drill, glue etc

Yes I know! It is a model of an Opico type portable auger which has the wheels that way round. It will be more of a toy, so I hope he won't complain.

Probably just do what I would  do...pick the thing up with the fork lift 'cos the tyres are perished 

V. V. Nice, TM . Really looks superb!

Thanks a lot........I knew I should've nicked more of that pipe..........

wots on 3065 18.4 16.9 or 13.6 r 38 ?

not really a high horse tractor

i class 180 + as high horse

16.9  34s

Not high horse (although it's supposed to be 85, puts out 100 at PTO - not tweaked) but the most useful tractor on the place.

When I bought it we had a 3085 as the 'big' tractor so things have moved a lot HP wise 

Aluminium vent pipe, lined with poly pipe as stiffening.

I'l just do 'an Ebay' and send a photo!

Do you guys live here?  ;D

Made this as a Chrissy Pressy for my neighbour's wee boy who is a farm/tractor nut, but doesn't have grain storage!

Just thought I'd post these before I wrap it up 

Got Kleber 20.8/480 s on Renault and they seem v good so far - have full 21" width tread as mentioned above.

Good Year 580/480s  on Ford 8360 are OK but I'm sure the bloomin things aren't circular and give a wobble on the road!

Having said that Good Years on MF 3065 are original after 17 years and 6500hrs!

Had demos of a couple of Valtras recently and only criticism would be they are comparatively noisy - did like elec. timed spools though 

I've still got an 8360 and I think the cab is one of the best, but... the Renault RZ cab is the smoothest tractor I have ever driven. Couple that with front suspension and it's better than my car (car is a bit ropey  )
