Paul Palmer Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 started taking apart the 2725, and removed the front mudguards as i dont need them and removed, in my opinion the horrible euro black rear mudguard extensions 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Palmer Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Primed and sprayed where the euro black mudguards were and filled where the exhaust was and drilled a new hole for the exhaust on the correct side of the bonnet 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 I recently bought this Weise Deutz which is a very nice model but for some reason this and the Black versions had a strange sticky substance on the tyres which doesn’t want to come off with a good wash so initial thoughts were to swap different tyres onto it but the ones I had in mind were too small or too tight - I couldn’t get them on. So I then thought maybe adding some mig light soil may reduce the texture . I wasn’t really happy with the look of it, as I’d daubed quite a lot on so removed the excess with an old toothbrush and just left some of it on. By no means perfect but I think it’s an improvement . Maybe a weathering powder may have been the way to go but this will do for now. Photo of it now with fertiliser spreader attached and as out of the box underneath 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 (edited) Not sure if i should use the original pre air cleaner or my homemade one, the original pre air cleaner is the right diameter i think, mine is to thin, but i have the right shape top on mine, also mine is just slightly to tall but that is easily sorted,cant paint chassis or wheel hubs today as i have had a no show from Evri today😤 Edited August 3 by Paul Palmer Spelling 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Cheers Paul like the work on the MF too - your air cleaner looks better than the one on the model to me, the top is too big I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Palmer Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Ok pre air filter painted and exhaust and pre air cleaner fixed permanently, and driver in,as i said yesterday waiting on the charcoal grey to arrive so then i can do the chassis and front wheel hubs and get it back together, not a massive job to get it looking right 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornish-model-farm Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 This is one of my own Teagle Titan 17 3D printed kits which I assembled, painted and weathered for my own farm layout. I still have a few Titan kits available. If anyone is interested please message me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
