malcy_p Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Evening. Raining in Suffolk this evening, so I've put a few touches to a project that has been bubbling along since meeting up with Hoss again a couple of weeks ago. First up, what I wanted to recreate! e - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malcy_p Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Closest this I could think of is the Britains Kane trailer, so I bought another one from flea-bay and after it arrived I stripped it and started to change the ribbing structure on trailer body.

malcy_p Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Need to find a ladder to suit, and paint the beacon and lights on the rear - other than that, could have turned out worse seeing as I haven't done much like this for a while! /malc.

Stabliofarmer Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I've been looking forward to someone building one of these trailers for a while as they are a good looking trailer and something differen. Looks like a very nice and clever cconversion. Would never have thought of reshaping an existing trailer model. Great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluegreen Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Nice work Malcy, Good use of the Kane which frankly needs a few extra coats of paint to stop it from being see through when the sun shines on it ...................Im glad you have added a new Axion to your model fleet as its a very smart tractor...........we have one 830 model running locally, would like to see a few more about. I changed the boots on mine to Schuco Fendt 724s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
