Well I finally had time to work on my first project. Its kind ruff looking due to it being well used when I was small. I wore the wheels right off!!! The project is customizing my JD 535 baler. it about 85-90% done, going on back burner for now. Later I will try to buff the old paint off to get rid of the spots or might just put some rust color in those areas. Might make new decals too.

On some of my deep tillers the teeth would rip off or the wheels wore off. You could get kinda otta hang. Now everything sits on a display shelf pretty much fixed.

The pickup teeth are from the 568 but the rest is the 535 pickup that I modify. Like I said before there is somethings I got to do yet to it. The paint on it really bugs me, might work on it sooner than I think to fix that. The holes I drilled still need to be filled but not to sure what to use for filler yet and redo the back shield on the top of the baler. (ordered some 1/2 round styrene for that) But otherwise I still like how its turning out.
