Hi Andy, sorry for the late reply. Thank you! I use a fast cast resin to get parts cured and ready for assembly quickly. The thin sections are a challenge and it really doesn't have anything to do with the resin, more about how you pour it into the mould and how to disperse any air bubbles. Thin sections are filled first when the resin is at it's easiest to pour. I try to use open one part moulds as much as possible and stretch the mould open to let the resin flow into it. It's all a bit trial and error to be honest.- 33 replies

Further development of the Boughton winch featured on the FC1184 Highlander led to this 1184 conversion.- 33 replies

Cab details feature a driver, reg plate, rear reflectors, scratch built mirrors, door hinges, radio antenna and a bigger roof vent decal at the front. A slightly larger County decal also applied below rear window.- 33 replies

Very well done Martin, still to try weathering myself, but every time I see something like this it makes me want to dive in -
Absolutely amazing work John, can't get over the detail you have ploughed into this model, and the working parts to boot, absolutely fantastic!

This had to happen at some point After making some changes to the UH 1174, I decided to develop a County 1184 bonnet and weights kit to fit the model. All should hopefully fit together via the single screw going up through the tombstone making the switch quick and easy.

Martin's collection.
tabmodels replied to mb86's topic in Latest Tractor Conversions & Scratch Builds
Some great additions to the collection Martin, very nice hope there wasn't any issues with fitting the lime spreader, was a tad concerned about the tail light stalks! -
Very nice Zac, good straight example, health to enjoy
