Tractorman810 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 can't remember who was asking about these now,but heres my work in progress mf teleloader,needs work on the top of the cab,grills ect,and having a hell of a job getting the paint to bond,all the green metal has been lightly sanded and primed,but first 2 coats have watered so to speak,recon it neds another coat at least,also a pain with te stearing as it want's to stick as you try to colour it, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted October 11, 2005 Author Share Posted October 11, 2005 no all four so you have crab steer like the real ones,about the only good thing about the model overall,,one major thing is it won't tip the bucket all the way,only level on full reach.bit daft if you ask me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodhead Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 i bet it wouldn't be that hard for britains to make a MF telehandler. They could use the same tooling as jd telehandler. Perhaps andy could put the idea to Craig tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
