nashmach Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Looks well - especially the back door, stickers and side ladder. Only problem is the Redrocks are ribbed along the side not smooth like this. Need one more sticker on the front saying what model it is. Excellent model though ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpinefocus Posted July 6, 2006 Author Share Posted July 6, 2006 Thanks, I thought it was a pretty good attempt at my first conversion/scratch built model. Just been on the website, see you mean on ribbed sides. Some of the detail I couldn?t get exactly right. Where can I get those stickers from then?

nashmach Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 For a first attempt that's excellent :o Don't know where you can get those stickers from if you could get a picture and dimensions for them I'm sure some one on here would do them for you. Where did you get the other stickers Dave Towse?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpinefocus Posted July 6, 2006 Author Share Posted July 6, 2006 Farmmodels.co.uk. I think there replacement decals for something so i dont think i get tonnage stickers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPN Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 The top pic reminds me of one of Hanly's 716s beginning to jacknife as it turned in a gravel gateway next to Couse Bridge Roundabout a couple of weeks ago with an empty RedRock on the back. Luckily the driver had the presence of mind to light her and drive through of it, but he was going into a narrow enough gateway - anything could have happened. Proper Job with the convo! Looks just like the real thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 First convo... who are you kidding... the man's a pro - Superb piece of craftmanship thee mate - if that's your first convo then I can't wait to see what you do next... What's next on your workbench then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smish Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 well done it looks great and nice to see a model redrock at last. there usede be alot of them around my way up to recently but they have been replaced these days by kanes and herrons yea thats true,a lot of the older redrocks didnt have a full flat floor,they folded the edges and butted them together but never welded them all the way along and the moisture used to build up between the seams and rotted the floors in them. cant beat a nice 18ft herron or a smyth!

civilpek Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 i thought herrons didnt do an 18ft trailer, a guy near me has a few and as far as i know there 17ft i couyld be wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smish Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 you could be right,i thought they were 18ft coz a mate of mine works with a guy that runs 4 of them.must be 17ft then alan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civilpek Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 ya im pretty sure the herrons are 17 and the kanes are 18, it came up in an argument before about what would take a better load Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
