TS135A DRIVER Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Nice job of the packer wheels on the drawbar. Makes it even more realistic now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deerepower Posted July 2, 2007 Author Share Posted July 2, 2007 Nice job of the packer wheels on the drawbar. Makes it even more realistic now thanks TS135A, looks better than the britains draw bar, I had fun making the hand rails and altering the angle of the rear packer wheels so the disc's are closer to the ground also added extra steps at the front. just got the bout markers, following harrow, pre-emergence marker, hydraulically driven fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pity they weren't fitted in the first place when the model was being made in China Hadn't noticed the other mods you had included too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deerepower Posted July 2, 2007 Author Share Posted July 2, 2007 have now added the spare packer wheel to the hand rails like the real version, it helps when you have a copy of the sale's leaflet in front of me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TS135A DRIVER Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 if britains had fitted them I dont think they would have lasted long with the carpet farming I forgot about that little detail, Not all of us stick them on display and don't play with our models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deerepower Posted July 2, 2007 Author Share Posted July 2, 2007 very true TS135A we leave the detailed models to U.H. to make Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 That packer bogie is the first thing I would add as well. Got any spare wheels then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deerepower Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 That packer bogie is the first thing I would add as well. Got any spare wheels then? it does look better with the packer bogie sold most of the wheels that I had from dismantled drills but do have 4 left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deerepower Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 have made the hydraulically driven fan, bout markers altered from the siku lemken powerharrow (just got the rams to do for them) the spare wheel fitted to the handrail, and have started on the pre-emergence-marker... I know the parts still need painting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistol pete Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 My mate has a drill like that in real life. they had to take the packer of it as it was digging in on the type of ground that we have. but it still looks good on the model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 You mean to tell me that they don't have bout markers? RC2 come on!!!!!! The Accord had them donkeys years ago!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think britains are hoping that people will put it on a tractor with a gps system so you dont need bout markers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
