Lord Ferguson Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Here she is in all her glory... the MF1450 round baler by PDC... as always... it's a great quality model... What a lovely 'old school' piece - would look great on the back of a Britains 595 or a 2680 even \ As always... if you want to know about prices/availability please contact Paul (PDC) via Pm and not in this topic I'm not sure if he even makes them any more... and apologies Paul if I get you inundated with PM's mate - but I promised DMF some pics a week or so ago... DMF... sorry for the delay in posting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 nice model mark & probably a darn site more reliable than the real thing , great in straw awfull for silage, till massey made belt scrapers to fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 Is that a fact Marcus... I'm not a silage man.... in fact.. I've never worked on one... back in the good old days your bales were oblong shaped and got towed behind the baler in a sledge Did the 1450 not have scrapers as standard then mate...

MJB1 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 the later ones might of had , but the one a friend bought certainly didn't the same applied to the JD 4**? round balers were the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Paul has done a fab job of these balers mind hasn't he. The paint is hardened a treat, very good finish and perfect decals too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted September 22, 2008 Author Share Posted September 22, 2008 Indeed... makes you wonder why Mr Britains didn't see the opportunity really \ I'm a HUGE fan of Pauls conversions - he does a first class job on everything he touches.... I bet he's bloody good a golf as well - sickening really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
