Any plans of how you are going to make the harvester head ?
yes the tires are made from 3d printed molds, I think it was cooper that had the idea on this forum for his tires on his loader? I still have some issues with air bubbles to sort out but they come out really nice, shore60a is solid and to hard really but shore 30 is about right. No ideas on the head yet apart from I have a mini chainsaw from the bosch easycut that I was going to use. Another pic of the now finished gear bogie, I need to order more gears from china to do the other side and a pic of the real thing in the forest.



quick video of the gears working (turn sound down) https://youtu.be/vdKLTt3D24Q
