I have altered the files now so its in 3 parts , chassis body and panels mainly so its easier to get off the supports , also got a proper grain top printed yesterday so thats waiting to go on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack390 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Looks very good Sean. The staining really elevates the look of the trailers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 couple of small alteration s required, ,lengths of the drop sides to allow for paint, which did cross my mind as i was paining them ,only .5mm overall on each if that , plus the grain tops out slightly, but overall its works, just. need to tweek the printer files a smidge to find the perfect finish against time printing now 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 testers all but done, need a rethink on the removable top as the fixing method hasn’t worked as i hoped, ,so bar a few alterations(made on tester no2 in the back ground) plus the top i am pretty happy with it so far 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Agri Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Had a spare UH mf/weeks laying around. Changing into a younger MF200 version 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Agri Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Another small project. replaced the tyres with UH TW tyres as I've never liked the original mf ones and repainted the rims as they were way too shiny. Unfortunately the steps were broken on the model need to find another set or two or make some. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Agri Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Pretty much there with the 200 trailer. Just need to repaint the red over the original decals as they arent transfers. Not sure I'm happy with the wheels they're slightly too big it sits quite high. Might try and find some artisan ones that are slightly smaller to finish. Also just need to make a new silage tailgate as it is now dual purpose 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jd6320driver Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Chasers nearly finished And a start made on my first tanker kit time for some filler on a few joins now 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 managed to get some time in the shed today, so second trailer is all but done, the body is the revised one for better clearance when the sides drop, which all works fine now, but the tops one of the old ones so needed work to fit properly, have some new ones done but didnt want to waste them. blue is to dark ,sadly the seller sent me the wrong one despite me ordering it from the before, so a replacement is on its way free of charge. just the wood work to do now on it, currently working on decals for it now . which is harder than doing the cad stuff ,well for me😂😂 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 spent ten mins out the shed today,aiming to get the wood done, but it was way to cold, stained it up, marked it ect but was taking ages to dry out, but i did managed to have a little test on one of the front loaders i printed, needs a bit of work on the bracket to fit the tractor, but it looks ok 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
