Humbrol liquid Maskol is handy in some situations like that, It just peels off when the paint dries, https://uk.humbrol.com/products/maskol-28ml-bottle-ac5217 Regards Joe.

Yep, lights work, just push down on the front end, The Silver part of the ladder swings down as well. Regards Joe.

Surpriseing sometime how smaller well detailed prints can be so much bigger than much bigger "straight" ones, Regards Joe.

Those grooves are really deep Sean, they will be very difficult to spray, but will look the part, Black Plasti Dip latex rubber aerosol realy does look like rubber, You should give that to go, Could you print the tyres and centres seperately, painting the centres and wheel studs will be very tricky after the tyres are painted, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152417531957?hash=item237ccaf835:g:LjgAAOSwpPVgCGg4&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA8HX1KGuQKLADmUwcXWiPWp%2FiP3cK4NcFOWMbQ6CQdHW1aip8UbDjODVbUkhNbW4CjlyOQp1xamqXK131kx6dSjySqifvEEVi5Zp7g4qmO4WMHcqPv8fS7G4TXcaiBIbEZsDvDSFzBh2hivt0jSt%2FqICGTZGg5zWKm7Y6axph2QaZbAETsjW1t9T6QTQl2zAvsfSUC39LNCQHOaeWDHDjjVcEyOAQHJiZI89R0%2B%2FpEHLTqc7i5Bfyjm%2BcXuGKLi6bu8KcifOPIowpSDozLlNe4Cl0%2B0aaH7bscM7pQLkKgXM68e2AQDb%2FB2CRZirocFw2JQ%3D%3D|tkp%3ABFBMvrLm3q5j Regards Joe.

Just taken another look back to the 2019 events page, Interesting to see how many folk looked in on here back then compared to now, But it looks like this was the one off model Pete did for that show, A Blue JCB 419S Regards Joe,

It was in an auction I think smithy, And one guy bid £400 straight off, Everyone at the show thought it was mrsoftie that bid on it to up the charity money, But apparently the guy came to the show specificly get that model, Regards Joe.

Sean, can you remember which JCB model was sold at Newmaher for 400 quid, I tried to find it on here in the Events page but couldn't see it,would be either 2018 or 2019. Regards Joe.

Aye it probably was smithy, I remember one of the models he did for the Newmaher show sold for £400, ?? Regards Joe.

The SIMA show in Paris in November has apparently been cancelled, Presumeably all the unrest in Europe has promteded the organisers that such a show would be inappropiate at this time, https://www.farm-connexion.com/2024/02/02/le-sima-2024-est-annule/ Regards Joe.

Can't believe no one else remembers, These were produced by Pete Hardy, aka convo, aka, https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064523479350&sk=photos_by For the 2010 Lakeland show at Penrith, Pete has done hundreds of re-paints and quite a few Police specials, Regards Joe

As promised two prints of a trailer tyre, which I did find eventually, The dull one is the PLA version, The shiney stringy one is flexible TPU, wheel / tyre dimensions are 30ml diameter by 14ml wide as per the ones on Andy Ingram's Stewart trailers, Annoyingly these look better in the flesh than in photo's probably due to the fact the 10 grooves / ridges are less than one ml wide, I have included a shot of the .stl file I used. Regards Joe

PLA is a very nice filament to work with,'specially representing rubber as it has a nice dull appearance very much like rubber,TPU no matter what you do always comes out stringy, To be honest I'm surprised it gets pushed through the extruder as it has all the character of an elastic band, A wee bit like trying to push a length of string, Regards Joe.

If I can find a similar tyre out there I'll print one of in both TPU and PLA to see how they come out, Regards Joe.

These are the most recent tyres I've printed useing PLA, 1400 LWS tyres, I sketched the rim's to fit them, Regards Joe

Give it a go on your Ender3 useing flexible TPU Sean, Or none flexible PLA comes out really nice,And only £14.83 a kilo. Regards Joe.
