Tractorman810 Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 the 165 is pretty much done, front wheel centres made not perfect but better than the painted screw , am just pondering the plough lamp, and poss another addition to it . also got a coat on the dowdeswell, although i am no to happy with the finish ,so i guess another coat needed 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 also had a rummage through the spares box, and got a 135 chassis made up, bar the exhaust, so had a go at grafting the spare set of replicagri flat arches to it, then got a little carried away, cabs the same as fitted to the 165 , front loader is a newish print i have been playing with ,from the original i did a while back, its just to dam cold out there to do much. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil phoenix Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 I decided to replace the rear wheels and tyres on the 3095, got the wheels off an Claas Ares 577. And also been swapping tyres and wheels about on the 8740S, finally looks right with chunkier front tyres and a replica R42 (34mm Dia) rear rim on the original 67mm diameter tyres😎 And new TNS decals courtesy of our old friend Henri Walker. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Agri Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Pair of shapeways cultivators painted up and weathered lightly. Subsoiler to go behind the Track Marshall and spring tines for the 65. Happy with them now 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Tractorman810 Posted March 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2023 its not perfect, but for my first go i am happy enough, its only going to be on the layout anyway , and pics from a distance ,ploughs near as done, just need to pipe it up,and find the decals i ordered ages ago, if not order some more, the replicagri linkage still holds it up, but i need to adjust something on the 1200 anyway, so i will tighten the arms up while i have it apart, just to prolong it,as the plastic will prob wear as you use it over time anyway. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil phoenix Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 (edited) More Massey's, this time I've finished changing the rear wheels on my 8220 Xtra to the ones used on virtually all the 8220's I saw in my area back in 99-2003 era. TNS ran a pair of demo tractors with the same rim set up back at Otley college in 1999, an 8220 and this 8210. I aged the front weight and exhaust, then put a 2003 reg plate on her.

phil phoenix Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Having nicked the front wheels and all 4 tyres off the 8280 for another convo I was looking for inspiration in my spare wheels and tyres bin. And I may have found it🙃............needs a little cleaning up and black paint on the bar axle but should do the job nicely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stabliofarmer Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 While I have the printer up and running I bought a classic range rover shell off cults3D. Had a go at printing it overnight and it's come out quite well, drew up some three spoke rims for it and made a start fabricating a chassis 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
