Popular Post Tractorman810 Posted January 8, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2023 and a new one, which i was very undecided on ,but actually very happy with it now, new 590 running on full replicagri 188 chassis,which was its fore runner so direct replacement had to extend the chassis 5mm plus new rear tyres. just to chunk it out a bit. mainly done as i will need something else in the field with a 3 point once the 1200 is ploughing . 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 quick test fit,needs bits added,which weren't worth adding on the print, made it more difficult to do, very light, which i wanted, dowdeswell 4+1 dp7, the 1200 holds it up nice and easy, next step, the shears, got one made, well test cut, but i have lost it, so weekend i will have another go 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the plan John, if you look closer you can see a scraper in the background, though I might build a better one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I see it now, mind I’d never have noticed if you hadn’t pointed it out, should have had my specs on🤣It’ll make a nice little scraper tractor that, mine doesn’t have a cab so it’s not as pleasant on a wet morning 😉 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack390 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 That’s a nice scraper, I was after one of the 240s as my grandad used to have one on the scraper when he was farming. Luckily I got hold of a 240 from Kicko 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
844john Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 They’re a nice little tractor Jack, I’ve a 240 and one of the yellow industrial ones, I can’t remember it’s number now, but like you say they’re getting harder to come by, so I can’t bring myself to weather them up🙈 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 managed an hour in the shed, and got a little more on the plough done, got the ram fitted and angles worked out, also been looking at depth wheels, our had a metal one, which i think will be easier to do, but i do have the replicagri one here as well ,also had a go at the start of the metal work, just need to find a way to fix them while cutting out ,plus find a item long enough to get more than one on at a go as well, one thing for sure,its hellish light compared to my original plan . 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
