mb86 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Superb work there, how do you get the curve for the roof in the corrugated sheet without it creasing? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Agri Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) I used a postal tube to roll it into a gradual curve and then bent it the last little bit before sticking on with superglue so it dried quick (Must add i can't take credit for the postal tube idea that was down to fathers initiative! Thank you for your kind word both of you i'd like to build another now i've got the confidence Edited February 20, 2018 by Anderson Agri 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you i'll have a look I have at the moment the guttering from the old britains shed which i've joined together to get the right length just need to glue it on and fit a downpipe A question for you all, would grey beams and light weathering be a wise idea?

rich.new holland Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Had another session on the gantry finally got it to hinge to fold up took some doing but over engineered to the scale but it was needed to hold the weight ha 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Agri Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) Attempted weathering for the first time, came out alright but could be better. I'm not that happy with how the Fergie turned out but may be able to improve it once its dried. Its slightly darker than in the photos as i had the flash on. Both will be in a hedgerow scene anyway so not the most important to perfect. Any opinions or tips would be greatly appreciated Edited March 12, 2018 by Anderson Agri Change of picture 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Agri Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 JCB now finished, to give contrast another "scrap" model. This will also be weathered similar for my upcoming layout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Agri Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Been working on creating a few sheds to include in a layout i will be making soon, first ever time using a 3d modelling program, and made these in just over an hour so pretty pleased. Will be cut out on a CNC machine on 4mm ply then painted Any tips welcome 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb86 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 (edited) Due to the recent poor weather I decided it wise for my next tractor conversion to be suitably shod. Edited March 25, 2018 by mb86 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Agri Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Weathered an old incomplete Britains baler i had lying around today, will be putting moss in the side where the panel is missing and will form part of the hedgerow on an upcoming layout 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
