  1. Had another session on the gantry finally got it to hinge to fold up took some doing but over engineered to the scale but it was needed to hold the weight ha
  2. Thanks mb86 ye we run 3 of them the one pictured is the bigger one. Its supprising how motorists slow down to go under it and ramps they seem to speed up for haha.
  3. The real machine she hinges from the middle of the triangle and folds back to large post on the right where it locks onto bit of angle iron with a linchpin and bolt. It looks smaller in the 2nd picture as its on a 434 not 416 haha
  4. Been years since ive posted anything on ftf but hello to everyone and all new members. I had a quiet day yesterday so set about trying to built a slurry pipe gantry like what we have in work, got a fair bit more done than i thought i would but the hinge in the middle is giving me problems and keeps breaking off, but still got a few things to do to it when i can

  9. i remember about 3/4 yrs ago there was a cheap toy in lidls and was a jcb 436 but no steering just boom up and down and tip but all the panels and cab were spot on from what i saw and im kicking myself every time i think about it as when i went back a day or too later they had all gone and iv never seen one again , as id like to make one for myself and one for the boss exactly like his with a strimech 16ft fold out on but ahwel
  10. very nice as said you might need a 434 thought haha works 434 has a 16ft strimech on her
  11. ok tris when i have some time off shall have to dig them all out haha
  12. well i remember the boss telling me that we had a load of our tractors carting which id say is a 40 mile round trip and they hired in a rival contractor with a few 185 fastracs and leaving the field they flew away but the last like 8-9 mile is climbing up back roads to the farm and the tractors behind were catching up and one or 2 even over took with jd7810's so there wasnt realy any advantage there except the smoother ride :/ and we did have a brand new one on demo last yr and used it on a tank 3190 :/ i think it was and she was quite a tank to get into the gateways around here where youd quite happliy get most tractors around the size in :/ but i was told after that fastrac left us she went to another contractor who decided to put butterflys on , while mowing she kicked up a stone and put it through thee back and front windscreen :/ he soon decided he wouldnt put one on a mower again, he said it wass due to the cab being further foward than the 7530 and if it had happend with her it would have clipped the bonnet instead he thought :/ but i dunno swings and round abouuts really isnt it
  13. cant you try like a enignering shop to machine up some pins ? as thats what we do at home for the 360s that we hire out , we got different size bar and laith them down and weld a plate on the end with a hole for the pin to lock over ,looks the same as any other pin then
