Thanks Paul, you may call me Sjonnie.

It looks much better than the original Siku.

Maybe you can take some better picture's as your camera has focused on you window...hahaha...

To re inforce my logging team iv'e made the next conversion.

Mounted the 1:50 Ertl harvester crane on the back of my Valtra N 142 black.

I think this is a conversion that you will not see so very often in this scale...

Picture's tell more then words.

This is going to be a big + for this Siku model....

Keep up the good work Paul!!!

Hello guys,

This time i started a conversion of the JD 7280 R.

This tractor will make a combination with the single furrow deep plow from Felimodels.

Now i would like to know witch tyre configuration you guys thinks is the best.

I tried a few now and made some picture's.

Please let me know what you think...

The Deere will be equiped with a frontlinkage with big front weight and en PMA rear linkage.

I also think i wil repaint the model because of the different in green color....

Maybe you can look here, think you can find someting of you list here...www.farmmodels.nl

I extended the mudgards with a messing sheet and poly.

Finished it of with modeling putty and this is the result.

Thanks for the reply's...

Just finished the container.

See foto's for details...

I did this allready for a few customers with all the different balers.( NH-Fendt-Challenger and MF)

The conversion is the same for all balers so i think that you need to pick up your conversion as it possible to do!!!

Thanks Will,

You are right, the Vredo from Zuurmond was working there with the chipper.

That is only a smaller Vredo then i am building.

Here is an update for the Vredo,

the container for the chips is in a far stadium of building. See the foto'd for detail.

Hello Joe, a Vredo has standard a 2,5 kg extinguisher in the cab. Like the one on the Xerion! This one you can't see from the outside.

The one i used is a 1:50 scale but perfectly matches a 1 kg extinguisher and is a reserve one on the outside of the machine.

For the Vredo i will build a Greentec woodchipper with crane infeed.

On the hook i will build 2 completely new containers that will suit on the Vredo perfect!

The update's are going faster then the reply's.

This will be the last update, next one and he is finished....

So, been i bit further with the Vredo.

If you take a look at the foto's and compared them with the one's from the last update you can see what has changed....

Here's a small foto update...

Hello Joe,

This is a scratch build container for materials as woodchips and stuff.

He is a little bit long for the Vredo but now you can see what it will look like!

Hello,

All the red and yellow parts are sprayed.

The black fenders are painted with a brush!

So, time for an update...

In the last weekend i have painted the Vredo and it's parts.

Tonight i did some building on the Vredo.

Much has to be done but i thought here's is an preview.....

The Zuidberg linkage is a kit made by Agriscale.nl and sold by farmmodels.nl

It's originally made for the JD 6930 but after a little bit of conversion it's suits also on the vredo...

Hello,

Just finished mounting the Zuidberg frontlinkage.

Here are some picture's...

Yes Luke,

There wil be two containers to build for the Vredo. Also i wil build a crane infeeded woodchipper in front of the Vredo!

Hello,

Today i've made the carrier hook system on the Trac.

It can tip and set off a container. The whole thing is selfbuild/homemade.

Also made the left guardrails on the machine...

Yes Joe, these are the Ropa Mega-X-BiB banden from the Ropa beet harvester.

It are the big ones.

Also your right about the rims, they are the aluminium ones from farmmodels

Have been a little bit further...

Made the right side of the body and the rear fenders.

Also placed the rear hitch!!!

Last update fot today,

Have put the rear axle on its place an mounted the front fenders!

Als made a beginning with te mid section.

It now really starts looking like a Vredo...
