844john Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Had a couple of hours spare over the weekend so I thought I'd reacquaint myself with the cutting mat and start a new build of a Teagle 8' offset topper like we have here. Hopefully it shouldn't take too long as it is a relatively simple build! Anyway, progress so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awdmac Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Time well spent there John, great work, looks like you've had a few angles to deal with. The real thing looks like one good topper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had it a few years now, it's certainly seems to be well built as there's a bit of weight in it which you notice especially when your on a hill.....I've had one or two hairy incidents in the past when its pulled the tractor across the slope but you learn from your mistakes!

Stabliofarmer Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Now that's just a little bit too quick John, what you've done there is rumble the sweat shop you must be running hidden in a barn!

844john Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 Thanks all, I've said before about an hour in the morning, but to be fair there was an odd hour at night too with this one, I didn't want to stop part finished as i knew it would probably sit that way for months if i did!
