mb86 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Grand job again john. The paintwork doesn't stay shiny for long once the grass is ready to chop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
844john Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 Thanks Martin, it's funny, I like weathered models because I think they look more realistic, but in the real world i go out of my way to keep our gear looking shiny! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valley Axe Man Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Looking good John.... has the "wet season" look about it..... grabbing a bit of grass when you can between the spells of rain called summer Have you thought about adding an additive barrel and carrier? down here in the valley a few farmers used to strap the barrel on a bracket on the front of the tractor in lieu of the front weights and pipe it through to the chopper. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
844john Posted December 13, 2017 Author Share Posted December 13, 2017 Thanks Paul, it seems that most years have that "wet season" around silage time now unfortunately! I've thought about the barrels, in fact I was hoping to get some at Penrith as brushwood do them at sensible money now and I was wanting some for a couple of my foragers but I never saw any, will have to get some ordered sometime 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDFord Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Really great detailing and weathering on the forager, just shows what a great basis some Britains models are for turning into something pretty special. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

844john Posted January 20, 2018 Author Share Posted January 20, 2018 Thanks Paul, the 845 was sold on the continent, but not over here, however it is very similar to the 844 which was sold here, visually they look the same apart from the number on the bonnet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
