ksp Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Hi every one.. Here ist my attempt to make a Samson PG 25 slurry tanker. I started with a 65mm nylon piece wich i milled the wheel hubs in a CNC Milling machine (my daily job is tollmaker) and every thing is made in 3D drawing programs. Then i Made the wheel guards and put them on. The pump-tower is extended but not mounted yet. It is a long way to go but i think the wost is over. Please come with feedback to my project. enjoy Quote
ksp Posted January 24, 2009 Author Posted January 24, 2009 More.... And i pic of the real one... Quote
Rhysmassey135 Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Looks good so far , nice kit in the background of those pictures to Quote
Deere-est Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Looks great scale wise, is it a Joskin chassis you have used? Now we have seen your photo's of real machines it will be good to see a model one made. Quote

Now we have seen your photo's of real machines it will be good to see a model one made. No its a chassis from the Britains tanker wich i've made 45mm longer. I will make 2 of them and if it seems to work, the front axle can be rised like the real one.. Quote

Well this has taken a huge step forward, Kim. Looks perfectly to scale with the JD. Have you modified the Britains Samson loading arm? Yes i've made an extension to the standard arm, but now the loading arm is to long if you compare to the real one. many thanks for the replies its very nice to get some feedback when you spend so much time on your hobby.
