mutley1to32 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Hi folks. Just thought you'd like to see the Claas Forage Harvester that I built from scratch. It's the first model I've built from Plastistruct A4 sheets. The paint job's not too hot, but overall I'm quite pleased with the result. It'd be good to hear what you guys think of it. Cheers.
