Two Wiking John Deere 6930 and a Siku Claas Jaguar Forager off of ebay.

A small selection of bits from Artisan32, some linkages, tyres, decals, lights and some weights.

Well then my purchases were: 3 KTWO silage trailers from Dan Precision JD 8530 Kuhn fert spreader Britains JD 7930 Some decals from PDC

My haul from Spalding: 2 Wiking JD 6930, 2 UH NH T6020 with loader, a UH Ford 7810, a UH green Valtra, some tyres, some enamel paint and some decals.

A load of trees, some woodland scenic stuff and some coloured corrugated card from Mandy. Very impressed with the trees.

My latest addition to the contracting fleet, a slurrykat range from Modelfarmer, absoultely thrilled with it.

I've ordered from them before and have had no problems, very quick delivery as well.

Oh my god it is amazing, however i think it will look even better with some mud on it and the plough in tow.

Something to pull that awsome fuel bowser

Eventually i want to make a small display that i can take to shows, but for the time being i'm concentrating on the main one that will stay where i live. The other option is that i don't mind if people want to use some of my stuff for their display.

I finally managed to finish my first JD 6430, i used a Wiking JD and a UH Fendt 415 for the tyres. I plan to do a couple more but using different models as the base model. Here are some photos of the finished article, thank you for the decals Blake. Here it is alongside its bigger brothers the 6930 and 7530

Two of these for some conversions, possibly one onto a lowloader and the other onto a fertilizer spreader, haven't decided yet.

UH MF 7499 from pauli , been meaning to get one as it looks a cracking model.

It is a Ertl precision 8530 with Siku 718 front tyres, Siku JD 7530 back tyres and a PMA rear linkage. As far as i know it was painted this colour for the military, but not sure if this info is entirely true.

My dad is planning on starting midweek, don't think its going to be the biggest cut we've had.

That is an impressive set up, the forager must go at a fair rate to keep all them trailers busy Did you make the rear axle on the forager steerable?

thanks for you help guys this info is really good.

Its similar dimensions to that but in the info it looks more like the 526-56. But like i said the 527-58 isn't on their website.

My dad is looking at loaders as he is fed up with his Terex TR200 breaking down, so we have just had a Manitou MLT 627 on demo bit too big for us, we reckon. So we had got some info on a JCB 527-58, but if you go to their website this loader does not exist, is this the case or is it a new release that will be at Scotgrass along with the 409? We are looking for a loader with a width not more than 2m. Height doesn't matter too much, but would be nice to be no more than 2.3m. What loaders would you guys recommend given the dimensions?

A ROS NH T7070 off of eBay. Been meaning to get one for a while.

I'm off to ecobuild in Earls Court with my boss, we're thinking about starting to instal solar panels, i believe the photovoltaic ones, they convert the sun's energy to electricty, rather than thermal ones.

What sort of buckets? For what diggers? As i have been looking for some for the ROS Hitachi 360 excavator.

Nice one will have a look at the front wheels, and try pulling then back ones a bit harder then.
