Richard de Florennes Posted February 9, 2008 Author Share Posted February 9, 2008 still not satified with the tank, the general appearance of the mashine is still "too high". \ I am now thinking of dropping to make it an Alloway mashine, but rather an unbranded "phantasy" beet harvester with an XL-holding tank !?

Deerepower Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 how high is it behind the tractor without it sitting on the board? looking good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard de Florennes Posted February 10, 2008 Author Share Posted February 10, 2008 how high is it behind the tractor without it sitting on the board? looking good the board represents thereal hight when the harvester is attached to the tractor and tyres plus the beet-lifting-wheels (on order) are fixed.

Tractorman810 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 to be honest sasach i cant see much wrong with the height mate, it could just be the tractor is under sacle thats towing it, we all know how acurate britains/ertl can be scale wise, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
