I don't have a Weeks to compare it to, but I'm pretty sure it has been addressed. I'm just cheesed off that they put a screw jack on it instead of the skids that were under the Ferguson predecessors.

If/when I get the silage variants they will be getting modified to skids PDQ i put mine side to side with the weeks , and at first thought it was sorted, , then realised that the wheels don’t touch the plinth on the weeks silage ,or any of the new mf’s , where as they do on the first two weeks , only a mm or two mind . its deffinatly tilted forwards so to speak ,i will have to get one of each out of their boxes to compare them properly ,but gut reaction, its the same i think .

Stabliofarmer Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 This arrived this week, the new Defender model from China. A good representation of the vehicle, only let down by the doors which are only half doors which give it slightly more of a toy look. It scale out at about 1/29th but feels about right. Will get some photos against other 4x4 models when I'm home for Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stabliofarmer Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 And a second buy for the week, a 1:32 Hiab. 3D printed by a young lad on facebook called Jack Moore. Very impressed with the quality, I believe its a home resin printer that they're done on. No strong layer lines on the model, so ready for paint straight of the printer. At £30 I couldn't go wrong.

Janval Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 A little disappointed in there not being a "number x of xxx" on the limited Deutz however, no biggie but I kinda like that little feature on the limited series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to build it in the foreseeable as there are so many other kits or scratchbuilds I want to do first. I don't know how successful these kits are for Marge, so I fiigured it's better to have it than to be looking for it in a couple of years time. But yeah, the whole purpose of the kit is to make it easy to do custom builds. I think a quick coat of primer will suffice rather than stripping the paint that's on the cab. There are more building instructions on MarGe's web site, I tried to share this with yiu at the time, But MarGe's site was down, https://475dc285-380f-4c42-a31b-b18bdcb2a036.filesusr.com/ugd/1872ad_8e867286c06d4986871c1e2587e4b047.pdf Regards Joe.

CX820Joe Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 I've received these today. I had the little Valmet when they were cheap and sold it, I think for a good price but sort of wished I hadn't so was pleased to find another. I've been deliberating over which drill to get for a few weeks. I really wanted the Replicagri Kuhn set up but I had doubts about it fitting the tractor I wanted to fit it to. I then thought I'd get the Lemken Solitair and pair it up with my big Valtra, but the one I had my eye on had sold. So I decided on this one. Hopefully will have no attachment issues and it is a great looking machine, and I do see a lot of 3m machines about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Got another Wiking T214 Valtra after selling the first one, was only £25 from ebay (not inc postage). Drilling tractor sorted! The drill looked pretty good on the big Valtra but that's intended as the primary tiller with the Bednar Terraland. The T163, which I had intended as the drilling tractor has too long a front top link to attach the T pack properly- takes the front tractor wheels off the ground.
