catkom3 replied to Paul Palmer's topic in Latest Tractor Conversions & Scratch Builds
My apologies Paul,I was measuring the wheel,Plus the tyre,and Mark I think your right,but the alloys would be a wee tad expensive although,Henry does sell these which would be about right,but I don't think they would look good, http://www.farmmodels.nl/Webwinkel-Product-3634781/37014-Cultuurwielen-groot-vooras-(grijze-velg)-(04226)-.html Regards Joe. -

What diameter are the wheels on the 4220,and are the fronts and rears same size,?? Regards Joe. -
The only wee niggly thing I can think of is,when you click on the "Unread Content" button,it doesn't always take you to the last reply,quite often it takes you half way up the page,?? Regards Joe.

Not really today,but yesterday when Brian kindly dropped this off for me,which one of these models do you reckon is closest to 1/32nd scale,I'll give you a clue,it's not the little expensive one in the middle,it's only 70.8 mm wide,closer to 1/36th scale,should be 78mm to represent 2.5 meters. Regards Joe.

I think I just turned the mould boards on all four plough bodies and put the wheel where the fifth one was,added some blue paint and put on aluminium pipes to represent the hydraulics,and some thin rubber tubing for the hoses, Regards Joe.

It isn't to difficult Martin,I used three of these Siku Lemken Euro Opals to make this Överum push pull set up, Regards Joe.

Henry also gives freebies,because he knows the Dutch postage is high,Paul Mandy at HLT deals with farmmodels,might be worth giving her a PM, Regards Joe. -

Yes Alex,an external radiator,a lot of the GreenTech machines have them,their bound to heat up a bit on short runs up and down the pit,I also put two sets of weights on mine thinking extra weight could only be a good thing, Here is a link to Off-Piste Agri http://www.offpisteagri.co.uk/about-off-piste-agri.html Regards Joe.
