Tractorman810 Posted January 2, 2010 Author Share Posted January 2, 2010 cheers lads, i had to rebuild part of the chassis yesterday after discovering the farme work had bent down on one corner, leaving the grain sides a good 3mm clear on one corner, nothing a bit of cutting and new rear bar woulnd't cure mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted January 2, 2010 Author Share Posted January 2, 2010 not quite mark, still got the center latches to do ,just noticed that, also need to wait for the proper floor, so i can sand down the frame at the rear level to it once i have the right thickness them latches have taken some doing so far, all .08mm thick brass wire drilled with .07m holes and thickened up with some 2mm plasti tube, only way i could do it, still need to sort the dropping on the tailgate as it sits wonky, just need to reposition the holders on the arm thats all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenside MF Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 That is superb,I've never seen a trailer have so many working latches and hinges in 1/32 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 2, 2010 Author Share Posted January 2, 2010 cheers for the comments guys, has been a labour of love, but well worth it so far, no point having a uh 590, or mine without decent implements to go behind, will paint the lower half first, then sort the grain sides, which to be honest bar sanding and a few shims fitting are done anyway, then its the silage tops for it, which are the same size extensions as the lower woodern bits, then same again in a gauge with a square back section on top, the door opens via a wire each side, which i need to put the bar on the chassis for ready thinking about it, these may take longer to sort as the tops all fine angle again like the wooden sides although this time i can glue the wire right in to keep it stronger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 The wheels need some new bearings Sean Looks great mate. Well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 well all done on the lower half now, have decided to leave the latches of the removable center bar, will add a bar across that to hold them out, as per the grain sides, on top, will make it dual purpose so it holds the top and bottom, grain shoots done, and also fitted the working screw jack up front currently looking for a good airbrush to paint the bottom half with now, but its way to cold to paint outside anyway so effectivly this is finished till it gets warmer sadly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 got a few in mind steve, both complete kits with compressors etc, ones tanked ones not, 2 guns with each all the works, if i get it now i will be itching to try it, which the weathers not allowing, so i am biding my time really only thing i do need to add is a metal angle or flat along the bodys main center beams, i have found that the plasti weld seems to warp the thinner stuff a little which is why the top wont sit right, if i put it on a straight edge then try its fine, thats part of the reason i had to change the bar beam to a one peice , if i use bigger plastic it doesnt look right so i need to find something Thats some piece of work mate wouldnt no where to start myself really You may have some wait for the weather outside to improve \ neither did i mate, so sort of half built the floor of the bodyto size ,along with chassis and went from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
