bluegreen Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Most Claas models are let down by unpainted wheels and reels................The UH Arion 500s are the only ones that do a good paint job on them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Ive always been disappointed with the headstock on the Britains New Holland LM telehandler...which incorporates the pallet fork frame ...looks fine with the forks on but wrong with the other attachments. So have removed that part to expose the genuine headstock and will get to work on a decent sized bucket for it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Agri Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) Working on this at the moment, currently in stripped stage ready for painting. An old Britains Sanderson that i plan on respraying as a Manitou like pictured. I have also added more industrial looking rear tyres from a Joal Volvo Backhoe loader. Photos to come up as i go Not a major rebuild but something different. I also plan on detailing it up a bit.

It looks exactly the same as that I'm afraid Jan Eric .The models have had to take a back seat for the time being while I'm lambing. the pure swaledales are due to start this weekend so it will be another 3 weeks before I stand a chance of finding a bit of time to tinker with them again, except for a couple that are only awaiting decals from Henri walker, I might manage 10 mins to fit those. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see, I'm in a similar situation myself. All building is put on hold until at least the end of May I'm afraid, 31st of May is the deadline for tax returns and shortly after there's VAT and yet more accounting to be done. Busy life working at a firm! Looking forward to seeing it completed though! I've been wanting to work on bigger/wider wheels for some of my models as well, but I'm to afraid to start drilling holes 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
