Something a little different from me. I've built this for Oak Brook Farm, I've never seen a model 404 about before, so is this a first? I have been working at this for a couple of weeks now on and off, it's completely scratchbuilt from plastic, there's still a few things left to tweak on it including building the flaps for each spout and a gate for the drum. A few pictures,

And finally on the 5610, this will be used on it pernamently.

Thanks for all the kind words guys,

 

Looks just like the real thing, i work for Teagle at the factory so i will try and get some good picture of the decals for you some time this week :)

How did you get the drum perfectly round?

Thanks, its only really any safety decals or model number ones that I need, another member on here sent me through some of the teagle logo decals.

 

tidy looking machine, saw one today  on the back of a old jd ,sg cabbed but no bonnet decals left, am I right in thinking the drums a old spray can cap??? 

Close but no, it's plastic between 0.5 and 1mm heated in the oven for a while on a buit of wood, then bent around various things until I got the drum right and then it was sanded and filled to get rid of any imperfections, it took a couple of attempts and the house smelt of burning wood for a while but I think it was well worth it.
