Overall I think a full cab intimidates some. The build itself isn't that difficult with a good bandsaw and wire feed. The plan is the most important issue. This build is typical of the many others out there with a good design and taking the time to make metal openings square for a good door / window fit. Nice job. Sure beats spending 3-4k on a manufactured piece. Most of the materials can be purchased for the shipping cost of a new one. I don't know if the hockey puck idea is that functional. They are hard plastic with little give. I will use some form of rubber belting that can obsorb some vibration and eliminate its transmission to the roof tin. I am a fan of safety glass so I would seriously give another look to using a plastic counterpart. I don't know if it would make a huge difference but adding dynomat to the interior surfaces sounds like a good idea.
I plan on building a cab for my 4110 John Deere. Depending on how it works out there may be another for the New Holland TC55DA.
Again, nice work. Thanks for posting. It may encourage others to take a closer look at new fabrication ideas.
