FB Posted December 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 thats what i was thinking as the arms on the two rear rollers are not central, like the Britain's version! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Has any one actually done a two gang convo with the britains KIDD heavy rollers ? as i used to use some TWOSE for rolling grass & maize ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenryk Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Looks like someone is using Meccano brackets. Would the rear pair run straight with the offset towbar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGU Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 I hate to say this, as it could earn me a numpty, but I think I undestand!! If you swap the two rear ones over then it will reduce the width. On this model they look too big to do that as they would hit in the middle! \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 i know exactly what you mean McCormick man as have seen some being towed before good to have you back for more than 5 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MODELFARMER Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Interesting? It'd be easier gettin the MIG out and weldin them into a foldin cambridge, Less hassleand more fun, something to do in winter. ha ha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 I'm with Mc Man, common sense really, swop them over and they should just overhang the middle roller by a foot in real life I expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new holland driver Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 in rela life the front roller should be about 3m and the 2 out ones should be about 1.5 m so when you swap them over the should run be hind the front perfect it looks to me like the man who made this made it not to scale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 We solved that problem after a while then Still he had the right principle MCM, nice model too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
