Pretty sure I've an old orange one kicking about, I could always get my behind in gear and try to modify it myself I suppose!

That's a relatively modern machine is it? Looking for something older!

Now that BOR has stopped selling these, what's the consensus as to the best ones on the market?

Out of interest Hajo, in the Netherlands what do you call barns with rounded roofs?!

G&M

This is a convo I presume?

Surprising isn't it, considering how almost everything else has been done at this stage?! I can recall reading a piece about Harold Powlton in the first Classic Tractor I bought (exactly eight years ago!) and it showed one of his, but other than that I can't remember any more

Great progress Elgan, fair play!

I think Britains chose 1:32 for their farm models as this was the scale of their military figures, not sure of the origins of that though

Thanks guys, I'm also taking heart from the fact that nobody has spotted that one of the 7810s is a Colin Moore version!

A good start, keep us updated!

The TW looks mint, what year is she?

Still waiting to sort out door so made a double-axle friend for it

Nobody is criticising Ros, well I'm certainly not anyway, it's New Holland/Trelleborg who we're criticising. I'll be buying the T7.270 as it's a top-quality model, I won't be buying the Maserati version though as it's not my cup of tea, the same way I wouldn't buy a real one if I were a (very rich!) farmer

Oh I know it's not wrong, I just meant that it still looked bad!

Made worse by the fact that Trelleborg is written straight rather than following the curve of the tyre!

I like the split-level, great work!

I think Catkom was just embarrassed that he hadn't spotted them before!

The Korean one wasn't bad for its time in fairness, a real rarity though. The detail drawn on the back of the cab is fairly bad though!

Get some pics!

Yeah, If you shape oasis to almost the height of the trailer and then put the rest on top

I'll be honest, I've never thought of it, but it sounds interesting!

Didn't have access to a real Lee for measurements and probably won't be able to get decals, so I'll officially describe it as 'Based on a Lee', the way that pubs have posters for U2 (in massive writing) and then tribute written tiny!

Must still do the door (didn't buy enough plastruct angle today :'( ) and sort out hitch and hydraulics, but just threw on a first coat to see how she looked. Happy enough, though the set-square is still causing me a few problems

Thanks Josh, farmmodels.co.uk sell hydrualic cylinders so going to get some of them and see how they go, should have pictures of latest progress tonight
