Very impressive dairy set up, like the cattle handling area and the seperate bull? pens.

One more of her parked up.

Hopefully get her in the field shortly, if the weather would clear up a bit

Local dealer arrived today with a new purchase for Stuarthill

MC had to come back to the yard to unload.

Jd combine looks well there Sean, someone is going to pleased this harvest, nice cab to sit in

Ash Tree Farm just keeps getting better and better.

That sheargrab looks well Murray, a good size for the farm master

Looks good mate. Was it hard to make work or??

Thanks, it was quite hard to figure out how to get it to turn over so that the wheel stayed the same distance from the last furrow when ploughing lefthand or righthand. Enough to make sure I don't do another

was it hard to do  i fancy getting a 7 furrow kverneland and giving her the chop  \

Looked very easy to start with Murray, but turned out not to be the case , don't know about the KV, mine hsn't ventured out of its box, yet

Liking that a lot, very tidy conversion 

Regards

David

Thanks David

Thanks for the comments guys.

Big A knows how long its ben on the go, he has seen it on so many visits :D

Two more in transport position.

Comments welcome.

A few pics of my cut down UH Lemken

Took me ages to choose which way to do the rear depth wheel

Not 100% accurate, but I'm happy with it Glad it's off my workbench, it was starting to take root

Thanks for all the nice comments guys

Looks very good in my opinion and will be adding one to my collection

Have to say tho, it's a pity, if they have gone to this much work to give us more of what we want, and have not fixed the bucket tipping issue

Jez reckons if you plugged in the electrics and plumbed up the water this farm would function! He couldn't big it up enough. I wish I could've seen it for real too. Love the shrinkwrapped pallets. So many touches mate, so many. 8)

Echo comments of those before me.

Stunning work Graham, I keep thinking you've covered it all, then you go and come up with more detail. :)

One lucky person is going to really enjoy owning this layout.

Bought some cattle and decided they better go into the unfinished sheds, what with this cold snap and snow expected 

I wonder if someone notices the subtle changes to the six wheeler that I've eventually got round to doing ( there was a seperate topic on the lorry some time ago).

Yes Bill, it's a massey , someones got to help them

Not too much more to do to it, rear wings to sort out and refit bonnet etc.

It's been on their farm all its days, so was due a spruce up

Is there going be a classic IH634 in the workshop undergoing a restoration too Brian ???

There is plans for that too Bill, but many other things to take up time aswell!!

Need to get my mates 35x finished first before we start on my one in ernest

Thanks for the comments guys,

bit slow moving forward with this one, but I will get there

Got some machines stored in the shed aswell.

Feed barriers are only temporary until I get round to making some feed bunkers, might be in time for next winter :D

Just a small update

Started getting some fields down and a bit of fencing to do

Nice looking start to Stuarthill Brian. Now I have to be nosey  inquisitive and ask about the name... a farm in Aberdeenshire and why the name ???

Thanks Bill,

The name, well I live at Stuart Crescent and because its up in the loft and on a hill shelf. So sorry, no farm that I know of in the area, Stuarthill farm is purely in my head ;D

Thanks for the comments guys

Fences along the road side are at a standstill at the moment until I see a certain someone at Spalding for some gates

I need to get some feed bunkers made now for the front of the sheds, then some cattle can move in

nice wee yard, cant wait to see some animals about

Cows and sheep waiting in the wings

i will borrow you one  of my coats its warm because its insulated with  cow 5h1t...you can work all night then

No thanks I like my comforts too much This hobby is supposed to be fun for me, not a chore

Long time coming Brian, you've some great builds and models under your hat so it will be good to seem them as we should 

Thanks Tris,

I found that it has just been too cold at this time of year to go out to the garage to work on a display, then when the weather warms up so does work etc. I hope to bring the large modern grain farm in from the garage to and have it set up below this one.

Two more for just now.

There will be a couple of fields along from where the gates are and then the farmhouse and some more yard space maybee after.

I have been busy for a few weeks, on and off, converting an area in the loft to start a new display.

Stuarthill farm is a small mainly livestock unit.

Here is a few pics of the start off the farm.

Hadn't really thought about it Bill, I couldn't remember when it was.

Not sure if I'll go down or not, will wait and see nearer the time
