Deano MFmad Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 This is my take on the Reekie bedformer, have been on and off this one for a while, The rams are not correctly positioned as this was the smallest materials i had. The ploughs are UH lemken mouldboards joined together. The framework is styrene/plasticard as is the pipe work on the frame. Discs are from the Britain's simba cultivator, and turn as they should. All i need now is decals have to get around to trying to make these. Here is the pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get on with it i just did this from a couple of photo's no measurements. I agree with you that there's not alot on the market. But i think David Towse does some potato equipment on a site that does britains spares as well, maybe Ive got the name wrong. But the top players in models would sell alot of this kit if they made it, i think theres alot of manufacturers brands from the past and present.

Light Land Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Awsome work,Looks realy well made. 8) Maybe the marker discs would be beter the other way so the soil is thrown away from the marker arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
