NCC Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 You'll have to start waking up inspired a bit more as that looks pretty good and BIG ;) :D Is it for the hook loaders ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 Yes its for the hookloaders, this one is for a chappie in new zealand if he still wants one, I've been going to do it for 6 months so thought I better get on with it !!! Not sure if its going to be too big or not if I take the sides up level with the ends, I'm going to work out the volume tomorrow if my brain still works when I get home from work, I might not extend the sides up anymore depending on what conclusion I come to tomorrow. It didn't look right any shorter than it is so it will have to give in height if its going to weigh 80 tonnes when full!! :D :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 May have to get one of those then, what are you going to use for the spreading mechanisim. How about a hi ab for self loading, a farm in the peaks has a couple of Lime spreaders with hi abs and bucket grabs fitted ;) ;D It does look a tad large, I presume it's the same length as a Krampe??? If so wouldn't of thought it would hold anymore than 30-35 tonne would it with the sides built or is it bigger than it looks?? Either way it's nice to see some competition for my Super Marston silage/grain trailer, I thought the day would never come :D ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCC Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Hhmm I presume the hi ab of the siku or Joal logging trailer would be too small in length and in overall size for it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 Hhmm I presume the hi ab of the siku or Joal logging trailer would be too small in length and in overall size for it?? Thats what I had in mind, it is too short but not by a lot. \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Time to get the plastruct out then and extend it or maybe put a boom of a loadall on there somehow ??? \ \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 There's a thought...... Do you want your models this year or what?? :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 It's not just me good looks FP :D Yes I wouldn't mind them models too, you can chuck in the Lime spreader though as a token of goodwill for them being late though if you like ;) :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MODELFARMER Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Lovely!! Over here i found the handiest way to work with lime is in granules, it can be applied using a spinner sower before or after i sow the grain and amounts are easier controlled, Back on topic. . . 4D modelshop; http://www.britains-tractors.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=650.0 That 4d models site is good, just cost me over 100 notes!! aw well hopefully make something usefull.

MODELFARMER Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Slow way of loading? There's a pic on there of a claas tractor with furrow press up front and drill behind, look at the side of the hopper, how it's filled, bulk trailer tipped and ogared up into the hopper, maybe that'd work with lime pellets??
