JoshParkinson Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 The 7200 reel is 19.5cm, but the 7200's reel is worse than the 7278s, it has no fingers or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 its actually a old convo i would not mind going back to now theres more parts arround and redoing, know of 2 ceras within 10 miles of eachother very close to me, heres the reel i did and the main machine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Stunning! If you don't mind me asking Sean, what did you do to make the tank lids open/close? I would like to have opening/closing lids on my CX820, rather than just taking the plastic open tank top off and on the combine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 just plasti card joe, with brass rod for the hinge, had to make a frame as the britains cast isnt flat on top, its ridged ,hence why i wanted to cut the tank out, but at the time it was not possable / beyond my skills ,times moved on since mind, so who knows, it may get a remake sometime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted July 29, 2011 Author Share Posted July 29, 2011 brilliant sean,so did you just vamp up the reel or is it off another model,the 2 cereas ,were abouts sean,i know of one but thats out near where i work,merton way other side of okehampton,picture of it last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 After your Lely masterpiece Mate, I don't think anythings beyond your skills! Thanks for that, I'll see if I've got the right stuff and have a try at doing a similar thing - won't be cutting anything out of the metal, haven;t the tools/courage!

Tractorman810 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 the landdrake and liskeard ones are both out working, landrake goes out the back towards where they do the motocross, quethiock way, the liskeard one will prob be down the menheniot lane ,the one right by the cottage just as you join from the liskeard slip road plymouth bound, thats where most of their land is take a look at the small farm in landrake on the right to, hes got a lovely mix of a 390t and loader, mf 135 and flexi cab, a jd 3? and a volvo/valmet 705, ,used to have a ford 7610 to, have a feeling he uses the landrake mf to on contract, so check up that rod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
