Michelin Mega-x tyres
James Joe Dewar replied to Pete132's topic in Latest Tractor Conversions & Scratch Builds
How about these , also from farmmodels nl, 46.3 x 20.3, I reckon you'll struggle to find Michelin's anywhere,rear's maybe, but fronts I doubt. https://www.farmmodels.nl/Trekker-(vooras)-Banden-ZONDER-velgen-Ø-46.7-mm-(kopie-fendt-718-Siku)-1:32-04271- Regards Joe. -
Cheers Jan, Yes I did think the problem would be exacerbated if you went to smaller scale, The 1/50 scale guy's would love these decals,I would think even some of the "bespoke" model producers might show some interest if the "bug's" could be sorted, As a matter of interest are you on Facebook, ?? Regards Joe.

Yes that's him, He has a farm at Newmacher, Him and Brian Grey organise the Northeast models show which is held in the Axis Centre in Newmacher, It's useually a very busy show, they raise a lot of money for local charities, Andy is the "JINX" in the first Show photo, https://farmtoysforum.com/topic/26487-aberdeen-north-east-farm-and-construction-show-2019/ https://farmtoysforum.com/topic/27949-north-east-model-farm-construction-show/ Regards Joe.

This is a very interesting developement in decals, They look as if they have some profile in them, Rounded as opposed to flat, And I can't help wondering if rubbing over them after their applied with a cotton bud with a tiny amount of Isopropyl alcohol might help remove the residual adhesive, Also going by the reflection of your thumb on the display case would I be right thinging that D8 is 1/25th scale,?? Regards Joe.

Cheers Callum, I knew I should have checked mine before I replied,Andy's were better detailled and came with side extensions, Unfortuneately these days I think he is to busy full time farming to produce models, here are a couple I took at Hilltops I think in Aberdeen a few years back, Regards Joe.

Fine collection you have there Callum, Unless I'mvery much mistaken that looks like an Andy Ingram Stewart trailer, Did you buy that at Aberdeen, Or Maybe Newmacher, ??, Regards Joe.

Whats on your workbench???

I just read the latest edition of Farm Machery Journal, And in it was an interesting article about Philip Trim's Krone Big X 980, But what caught my attention was the large additive tank on the back of it, So I figured I could sketch that up fairly easily in CAD, So I did that and here is the result, I put it on my 580 along with my old XDisc wholecrop header, https://farmtoysforum.com/topic/27296-f-a-o-james-teperand-anyone-else/#comment-653441 Regards Joe. -
Reckon that will have a very hefty price tag, There's an awful lot of very fine detail on it, https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=911532543817406&set=pcb.911533283817332 Regards Joe.

Looking good there so far Paul, No idea if these might of interest you but fammodels nl have started stocking these nice back drops, 700mm x 3600mm, they are pricey at €79.99 but should be available through Mandy at Hollylovestoys, https://www.farmmodels.nl/website/index.php?Show=Search&KeyWord=Landschap poster #filter:dcfdf7f77926842a3c77b28914222b03 Regards Joe.

New Electric Tractor based on a JCB 4000
James Joe Dewar replied to James Joe Dewar's topic in Tractors
Far easier to get a refill of Hydrogen, Than wait at the roadside for some assistance from someone with a Diesel powered generator to recharge your dead batteries, Electric vehicles are absolute lunacy, But these day's Lithium is an awful lots easier and cheaper to extract than oil,!!

Wiking John Deere 6r185 build
James Joe Dewar replied to Liam Wardle's topic in Latest Tractor Conversions & Scratch Builds
No problem Liam, it is handy stuff, you can apply it with a paint brush so you can get pretty fine detail, fiddly, but you get into the hang of it eventually, Regards Joe. -

Whats on your workbench???
James Joe Dewar replied to MODELFARMER's topic in Other Conversions & Scratch Builds
I can't find a tutorial for tyres useing Designspark mechanical for cleated rears, there is a Russian guy with two but with no narration, And he seems to make a mistake and backtrack. so no good, three ribbed fronts are easy if you can get the dimentions, as are wheels, this guy on Cults does a fair few 1/25th scale tyres, and rescaleing those is simple enough, he is a link to some of them, Cults can be very busy and slow, These are mainly tractor pulling tyres, but worth a look, maybe better early morning before America wakes up, https://cults3d.com/en/design-collections/CosplayItemsRock/monster-jam-tires-scale-1-25 Regards Joe. -
