JC Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Looks a lot better than it did.... I've never thought much of those cabs to be honest, I might get around to framing one with plastruct angle one of these days. \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 It's too narrow at the top really, sounds like Ricky has a trick up his sleeve but with these models getting bugger all on ebay, tables etc I may get a couple more and try different things.

nashmach Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Indeed but how did you get in the cab Tris as there are no door handles - Traci is pretty good on the camera :D ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH885XLMAN Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 those cabs should have been framed on the out-set from britains in the begining looks allot better tris its exatly what i would want to do with a N/H cab from britains Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 very nice tris, looks a lot better mate, i have glazed the inside of one of those frames before, and it didnt look to bad, but was a pain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpinefocus Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Looks good, i think i am going to have the same problem when i attempt a TM. Its a shame as the cabs let the models down for conversions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 Thing is, the real cabs are flush all the way round, the only metal work protruding are the pieces at the top of the fromt quarter windows. So it was just a case of painting in the framework wgere it was exposed like the corner/door posts. The rest is behind the glass like the model equivilent. Certainly brought in on a bit anyway, thanks for the nice comments. Oh and Nashywoo how do you think I got in there? Traci took the cab off, picked me up by my head, plonked me down in the seat and then put the cab back on!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MODELFARMER Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I thought you could just squeeze between the gaps in the plastic joints? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james f Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Looks good Tris, get on and do those door handles etc and you'll be able to get in by yourself. Maybe you should consider steps as well though. And dont forget a radio to while away those long hours in the tractor seat ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
