  1. nice work, I love the mud spatter on the tractor windows.looks spot on with some of the camera angles
  2. Hi all Would anyone know the over all outer diamiter of the smaller row crop wheels? both front and rear, as there site shows the size of the medium size wheels but not the small ones . I want to fit a set to a fendt 415 and the medium ones are few mm to big HELP Dave
  3. Right I have the tractor, but now I'm getting in my car, then the ferry..cos I want that cultivator ;D ,and those trees,and that field....
  4. haha all you can do when that happens is get out and have a laugh . I was always told that rubber tracks were C*#p in wet ground etc as they didn't produce any traction.chap that used one round here would leave it in the shed if things were a bit on the wet side...as if he were to get stuck he would have a BIG problem,,,errrrm as you have
  5. Easy...don't know about master...I just mess stuff up,oh well ,long as people like it
  6. Yer been there a few times, and things go for crazy money! I wanted a 6x6 chain harrow to go behind my compact. There was a new one there, unrolled on the ground ...in the mud (always the mud) It went for more than I could buy the very same one brand new from my local dealer, and they still had to put buyers premium on that price as well .I think a lot of the stuff heads over the water, also a dealers will pay more if they know that they have a buyer, were as others like me... want a cheep bargan, as with tractors etc you real don't know what you are letting yourself in for.
  7. got a layer of snow in norwich this morning
  8. I'm not sure but I think a lot of american Nascar models are 1/16th or very close, they do have quite a bit of workshop stuff as they are heavly into dioramas. Think you may have to hit up Ebay..and poss look over the water
  9. Web site updated...and yes Jez , it is yours
  10. I know what ur after, Have quite a few of them round us here in norfolk Thanks to Gee's. Could be an interesting project, some good rowcrops to start with . To be honest the rest of it wouldn't be to hard as its mostly frame work.Are you after the packing plant on the back as well?
  11. spot on! I was just thinking today I need to make one of these, as I do need to start getting better photos of my stuff. Spot on, I will be off to find some canvas's soon . thanks for the tip
  12. I have found...to my cost that tractors in boxes or cases don't travel well! it is best to take the tractor out and wrap it in a big! ball of bubble wrap then put inbox with case. what seems to happen at the sorting stations or "central hub" as they call it is machines or people seem to drop the parcels from about 3ft as part of the sorting prosess, when this happens whatever is in the parcel recives a sudden jolt. If you have a tractor or other fragile things like chima models etc they seem to shatter from the force of the impact, This looks like what happened to your tractor from the photos! If however you wrap them directly in bubble wrap the absorb the shock and most (NOT ALL) time make it in one peice. as for royal mail insurance...same as most insurance WASTE of time and money. I find parcel force 48 better for some reason but they have diffrent sorting offices and work seperatly to royal mail. I also agree with the above DHL and myHermes do seem to offer good service, and appear to give a sh#t unlike royal mail Oh yer and I never put FRAGILE on a box, makes no diffrence, and somtimes I think they drop fragile, just to see if they can break it...gits
  13. Spot on thanks for that 11th it is then!
  14. Would anyone know if there is a show this spring...and if yes is there a date yet? as April is starting to get a little booked up with other commitments, and I don't want to end up wanting to be in two places on one weekend
  15. haha you have never worked in small scale forestry...they are in fantastic condition for forestry stuff, got glass and everything .
  16. I would go with the dip the clutch option,here in norfolk we have very few hills, yet alone steep ones,but there is a bridge on the road to cantly beet factory with a steep 400m odd hill that many a lad has dipped the clutch on with a load on to see how fast they could go (not me, I owned the tractor I drove,funny buisness like that could cost money ). I bet he did the same,lost control, hit the split brake or let the cluch in a bit to sharp..bet he won't do it again! Oh, and hold on...it is a massey, sompthing prob dropped off, or the brakes just gave up & he was just on for the ride! haha (Sorry MF lovers )
  17. Looking at the prices of toylord stuff,I don't think he would bat an eye at the cost of a wiking black beauty as a base model.But looking at his talents it my be a repaint of the std green 936 as it has been said already on here it's not hard to do . oh just for the record...drool I WANT ONE , I try not to look at that site
  18. I have told santa that a wiking Fendt 828 will do me . If she ...errr I mean he, can get one
