That’s even better then I can solder electric wires with ease but when it comes to brass on models I can’t crack it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mb86 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Agreed, the paint transforms the model. That yellow primer is good stuff, it makes a hell of a difference for putting the top coats of yellow on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valley Axe Man Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Hell John... an FX and 05 series together, hope your planning on expanding the trailer fleet appologies for the bad photo's but these live local, well its a pair of FX450's now but was a 450 and 2305, fields they are photo'd in is now a housing estate....

844john Posted July 24, 2020 Author Share Posted July 24, 2020 Thanks for the photos Paul, yes trailers could well be an issue, seeing as i haven't gotten around to making any yet! The contractor that ran the 1905 also ran a couple of FX's, with the 1905 basically used as a back up machine, but i can remember seeing the two of them working together next door one particularly wet year. Actually, i started the FX a few years ago and never got back to it, so I'm hoping to pick it up again along with the combine while I've got the yellow paint out!
