WHAT the heck

I'm pretty certain you're correct Sean regards the Massey element of this project. I believe the front half is effectively a Massey Ferguson rotary combine whilst the rear half supports a large grain tank. It's a project that has now been developed by a farmer. Different, but hardly revolutionary.

there was a pic a while back now,year or two ago???  off a mf combine "future" project from memory joe, and guess what ,it looked very similar to that,and to be honest that cab has all the marks of the latest mf's to it to? ???

If the online converter i've just used is correct then 1000 bushels is just over 25 metric tonnes Joe. :)

Cheers David,I've been doing a bit of "Googeling" and according to one of the designers it has a very small turning radius,quote (The turn radius is extremely small (smaller than most Deere's or Gleaner's),that would be due to the articulation and the steering rear axle,presumably that is why it appears so wide,here is the story so far from the Combineforum,http://www.thecombineforum.com/forums/9-gleaner/42433-tribine-combine.html the Tribine website only went up last week,

Regards

Joe.

in principle it works,  you need no tractors and chasers in the harvest , less cash spent all round in wages , fuel and machinery  ,state side it could potentially take ages to get back across to the road to unload so good firm acess needed for the road  trucks  to get in and unload it

If like me you were wondering what a 2000 bushel ( 25 ton ) chased trailer looks like,then here it is,never mind getting the Tribine through a 12foot gate what about this,??

I thought the chaser I used inthe USA was big, not to mention others I saw. That thing is huuuge!! Balzache maybe more appropriate!! Still, none of this kit is going to appear in Blighty for a long time yet. Kit like this I'd destined for Eastern Europe, Russia, The Americas and so on.
