Kiwi6920

ah i see what he meant now when he sai the dremmel slipped , but then why not just ask bill if ertl can make a diecast version of it 

Its not a current production tractor and its too new to be a classic so we are s#it out of luck for atleat 5 years when they might consider it a classic....

We could do a partition....... Im sure if we got enough votes/singnitures for a 7810ertl/rc2 would have to look at doingone wouldnt they??

I think scale wise it looks good and while not exactly like a 7810 i think for the money it will be the way to get a 32 scale 7810 in the collection ;) ;)

I will consider selling it as a kit for members that want to have a go them selves ;)

I was going for the look of a 7810 not the exact replica... But i am happy that i have had the push to get it looking as it should... I do like the look of yours pual but i recon that forit to look super you need to shave a few mm of the cab top... Just to the frame looks good i recon...

It's all plastic Marcus, poor detail, but surely you could use the frame of the cab off of the 7410? I know it's got crap blacked out glass, but you could cast the frame surely?

There is no frame realy.. its a 2 pice casting... you have to cuut all the windows out the guard off... i am going to have a crack at scratch building a cabin frameas i didnt cut my plastic one properly and its not even close 2 square now...

The only real way to get the cab perfect is to alter the mtx one alot ( bout 2 hrs work alone) ofr to scratch build one.... thats if you want a perfict 7810... If you want a replica just get a new bonet and a lick of paint on 2 a mtx...Thats my oppion on it now...

that looks pretty close nick, good job. can i order one?   Im gonna try and get my 1st version of a buckrake done this weekend

Ifi can get this little bugger sorted... Yea you can... I dont think im going to end up super happy with it tho... its not lookingas it does in my head

Ahhh ill try find some specs.. my 7010 series brochure dont have dimensions  Its a real pain in the neck 2

Out of interest.....How do the MTX175 and 7410 compare scalewise?? Wheelbase, cab height etc??

Ummmmm  : I couldnt tell you now sorry FP the 7410..... well you cant tellit was one now... there is just a pile of green plastic bits on my desk now and a little bit of black there.... i think they were fairly close...

Cheers beetwood mac.... I think it looks like butchery at its worst now \

looking at big brother it looks about correct

What do you guys think ?

Those pics make me wana go drive for Jhon..... I love those pics tris Thanks for putting them up m8

looks realy nice there...

Over here i think we aremainly bulk spuds now... well they are around me any way

The ones i know of work like Dwross said.. 4 or 6 bolts you slackend of then drove forward and they flickout.. Ihad some on my fordson but i got rid of that tractor ( she was getting water in the oil...there are realy good for extra traction

So is the cab on the first one from an Ertl 6410?

What is the bonnett off?

Both look good, first one looks better if i had to pick one 

wrong shes all off a 7410

Now that i look at  my books the axle is close to correct. In some pics the bonnet is at the front edge of the wheels and in others the bonnet is just behind them closer to the middle

like the second better for detail, just one thing wrong, the front axle is too far forward, dosnt look right, jd's are quite short wheel based (7810 range) geting there thoe keep going, you know it will be right in the end

Idont think im going totry and alter the axle... The cab has been 2 much of a *****... atm its looking likea one off...

;DThe  7410 arrived today.....I sum how sliped and the dremel cut in to it  : still dont kno how tho   Any way i now have 2 cab options.... what do you think? The first one is the plastic one with both cab and bonnet, the second one is plastic bonnet and mtx cab. which one?

Ive used one of them to plough with on a dexta right pigs ear it was to.If I remember right to trip it you connected a short chain onto the towing hitch so when you lifted it out the chain went tight thus operating the trip mechanism

Thank you so much there GGG that has helped me find out what i wanted. Howto trip it... My m8 has one of these and he couldnt find any thoing on how they triped.You havecome thru and cleared it up for us Thank you once again

Ps markey.... You didnt fail..You helped the situation by joging others memories... I love this place. At least ONE person knows something about what you want.... I honstly dont know how i would survive with out the forum for th info i need

Thanks alot guys

Thanks for that Markey...Idont know what the triplooks like so i dont know if its in the pic  :

And what massey thing inst strange looking ?

no, you hadnt dissed the massy till just then, we saw you as an angle, if slightly misguided in your colour choice :D :D

They arent over rated over here and i belive that JD are the NZ market leaders  folowed buy CNH

You cant have been paying much attention to me then.... Ive made alot of low blows to masseys 

Another one to add to the list Sean 

:o What I wassnt onthe list already??? thats just sad there.... You know im JD thru and Thru

Somevery nice and funny pics there. Love the knackered maseeys

One of John Austins three chopping crew. Deere 7500 chopper, three 6920s' on trailers and an 8520 with front blade on the stack.

Nice. 

I think you need to go for a drive with your camrea there tris... His kit is god damn sexy

Yup shes 44,000kg and max of 20m long.

We have a realy vast mix of trucks over here but there are some true beasts around..

Hey tris try and check out STL transport they are black and red but they are stunning... they have a eight wheeler COE KW towing a quad axle flat deck and she looks sexy  She does auckland to wellys soyou should catch it some where

shall i make some different varients up for spalding then???

looks like it could be worth it.... a wrap round one with tow hitch for the 6920 would be nice

Be careful chap...I remember you were let off of a certain one that had to do with time zones.  :D

Remeber timmy i wasnt the only one that was let of on the same thing a  atleast i wasnt trying to sell a 8270 as a 8280.....

Nice pics there pingu.... What does the tt stand for ?

The fact markey is been let of his well deservied numpty  \

How hard would it be to make it fold?
