Superb photos

I can imagine how irresistible it must be for kids who want to pick them up- nearly succumbed myself at Toytrac, almost a reflex action when I see a model tractor

Brief visit to Lister Wilder in Cirencester, lots to see including- Fendt 930 & 933 Vario (huge!) MF 6260, 6290, 6465, 6480 & 8480 Dynashift, MF 8937 telescopic. Merlot p32.6 Kubota B2110 & much more besides. Might take a few photos next time I'm there.

Didn't get all of it mind I only had the little Stihl saw to play with...

Recession, what recession?! some of you folks have bottomless wallets

Digging and hacking a gigantic Magnolia stump

Beautiful work, such detail on Leverett's farmyard in particular, and not too crowded! (Not sure about the sky backdrops though, looks like it's on a clifftop! \ ) Is that a post hole basher in photo 8?, I need a close up! Oil drums in the next photo look familiar.. From what I can see these layouts are even more accessible than the ones at Toytrac, you can really get close. Lovely stuff.

How many grease points for a dump trailer like this typically? Is it necessary to lubricate mid-job? Strange question, sorry!

No, both of mine have lost their tracks. I'll take my chance on the 4020..

What does the wife think about all this lot, do you have some sort of 'special arrangement' or have you split?

14 white fences, "County Farm" gate, 11 old wall pieces, 595 drw + Superflow cultivator, 1991 catalogue

Price of MOT repairs

Any chance a quick mobile snap if you use either?

Cheers

Hi can anyone tell me the catalogue number for a Bomford Superflow cultivator?

So the elephant grass is ready for cutting now steve? How many cuts do you get in a typical year?

Any pics?

Just looking at your convo pics; that looks the business Sean. The 4020 is such a nice tractor though I wouldn't want to tear it up! Hm looks like I'll have to split the fiat to get the front axle out

I'm trying to make a rowcrop tractor from an old Fiat 880 halftrack. I've removed the little chunky tyres from the original in the hope of replacing them with the old ribbed 2wd tyres, or something similar, but none have so far fit the original Fiat axle. It seems to be the same telescopic axle type as you find on all the old Britains Fords and Masseys; all were made in the 'narrow' position (I thought it might look better having them the same width as the rear tyres). What is the best axle with an 'extended beam'? The axle on the modern Ford 5000 looks about right but doesn't seem to be attached to the main casting with a pin, as many of ther old Britains front axles are. The MB trac front looks about right but I don't want to pull mine apart to find out \

It could be a lovely pastoral scene from the 60s...

Well try this: Britains dx92 found in rummage box at a car boot sale, 40p

Restored Massey TE-20 diesel at a car boot sale.

Same field as before: MF 3635 & folding cambridge roll

MF 6290 with Vicon LZ ?520 drill & JCB TM 300 loader (following Wednesdays soil preparation with a 6490 & folding spring tine harrow).

Cheers mate. Spalding? Not sure if I can make it. How much do you want?
