neilw Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I have acquired a Simba Solo (Thank you, Tris!! ) and was thinking about getting another one, chopping it up to create one big solo ( I think they are 7 meteres off the top of my head, but could be wrong) I was wondering if anyone has ever had the same idea, could not find anything in the conversion topics but it seems to be a quite straight forward. But then the best laid plans....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 i think dave towse built some followers for the simba but not sure if the simba has been bulked up here more usual the siku centaur 600 gets the treatment , so go on give it a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithy140 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 yeah go for it. you never know you might open the flood gates and everyone might be doing it. I think the widths are 3.3m, 4.5m and 6m. well they are the ones I have seen in the uk anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nathan Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 the britains one is the 300 model i think. i have seen a picture of the 600 model which i guess would be 6 metres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 seen loads cut down but never made bigger, so yes go for it Cut down Isn't the Britains Solo the smallest anyway? You sheltered Plymouth hermit :D Yeah no worries, Naill. Like others have mentioned I also believe it's up to 4.5 and then 6 or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

britainsnut Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Definately worth doing the new SL700 is 7m wide http://www.simba.co.uk/sl_700.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangray21 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I'd definatly go for it, always worth the try at least. It always surprises me though why Simba stuff has never really been made in models befor apart from the solo. Its been around a long time but yet nothing to show for the collector.... any one agree?

masseyjack590 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 the sl is a completely different bit of kit they only go up to 6m but to pull that your going to need a big quadtrac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
