FB Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Hi Bill, Are there any plans for the future to re-release some new power harrrow and drill combinations, preferbably with a link up system not fitted? cheers Ben Quote
Guest quangova Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Thats somthing i would like to see as well... a 6m combo would be just the ticket for some of the higher horepower tractors Quote
Pingu Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 A 6m combo would be nice to have or a 4m convo to go on the back of a MF 7490 hint hint ;D Quote
new holland driver Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 i like the soundof that or just a pull down unit on the front rather than a power harrow Quote
Bill Walters Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 This sounds pretty European in nature. I'll have to defer this to our UK office. I'm assuming you also want it in 1/32nd. bill Quote

I'm assuming you also want it in 1/32nd. bill 1:32 for sure Bill, you used to have this item in your catalogue (around 2000) which was the sort of combo were talking about Quote
FB Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 yep sorry 1:32, you know us!!! like the pic but maybe a bit up dated as well, so that the drill can be removed from the harrow as well? Quote
Guest quangova Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 or a cultivator/drill such as this Simba Horsch models beloe Quote
THEBRITFARMER Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 You used to have this item in your catalogue (around 2000) which was the sort of combo were talking about This will all be alien to Bill alot of the farm stuff is different over here. There are some massive seed drills over here. I just bought a CASE 16 row planter in 1/64 (Nice model Bill !!) Here's a couple pics of it. Unfolded it measures 15in from guide to guide. 8 1/2 inches folded for transporting. 5inches from hitch to end of seeder. That would be [move]MASSIVE[/move] in 1/32 scale. Quote
FB Posted July 18, 2005 Author Posted July 18, 2005 ok, everything you have at 1:64 we want at 1:32!! ;D Quote

SPN Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 I'm in agreement on the proposal to re-release the combi drill. If possible it should be in a different colour (red and/or blue would be the best) and the coupling should be redesigned (the original wasn't great) These are two separate models with relatively young tooling, so the only cost would be in designing the linkage between them. This is a 4m replica, whereas the Siku is a 3m. This has both niche and mass market appeal - as Siku's regular reissues for different brands indicates. Here's my Britains one reliveried as a Pottinger Aerosem 4000 by PDC. Quote
Guest Fendt pwr Posted July 20, 2005 Posted July 20, 2005 I too agree with the others,A re-released seeder would be a grate move in the right direction. One thing I feel any new or re-released model seed drill need's is a "metering wheel" fitted to one side. (I thought that Britain's power harrow in the pottinger picture above was 3 meters?Pls tell me if I'm wrong.Why I say that is,it's the same width as the Britain's MF130 seed drill,so when guy's do a MF130 drill conversion up to a 6 meter drill they just stick two of them 130 drill's together and call it a 6 meter drill.)
