You'd think it'd make sense for silage trailers to be available for silage season

After much procrastination I've finally gotten around to building a fairly simple chassis for this, tonight will be spent getting the tipping action and door working properly

Thanks TM, if it doesn't take off at least it won't be for the want of trying!

That can be a risk alright The competitions in 2006, '07 and '08 were very well supported as far as I can remember, and the discussion threads that went alongside them also led to good discourse, it'd be great if we could replicate that. Prizes would be a good motivation for people to enter but I realise that they cost money too and getting them sponsored or donated would be very difficult

This little baby cut into strips and doubled over on MDF

Thanks TM, I copied what you did for the ditches, plenty of people commented on them! Had hoped to include a milking parlour, silage pit and a field or two more but no big deal! Cheers Tris, my brother set up the cows in the field, I liked how he put two of them eating the more plentiful paddock!

Is one of these being run for 2011? I can recall them from other years, members on here had really good displays set up

It was also featured twice in the painting that used to be on the back of the rainbow-banded boxes, once in each configuration

No Mandy, more like bits of real ones! The Dutch barn (which I've now realised is far too small compared to the rest!) is like one on the farm my father grew up on, while the milking parlour, which is a work-in-progress, is going to be from my mother's homeplace.

It is Britains, but late 80s/early 90s

Others below, I'm amazed that the one in the first two pics didn't win a prize

Back home after a great day, some excellent displays on show. Below are jdman's (first two), which won, Ford & Fordson's dealership and Coxy's

A debut of sorts for Meadow Brook today at the show, though due to a mix-up I was allocated a smaller plot than expected meaning that things had to be left out

To take it the opposite extreme - imagine if he'd never got in contact with them and they produced things without his expertise!

Silos was another thing, and a header trailer and removable heads for the MF 760!

Any idea when we'll see pictures of the 1:32 New Holland T8 Atte?

Ford4ever is right, this was something that Britains did without consulting Warner Hall, and it makes zero sense!

Thanks Andy, only just spotted your reply now! How great it would have been if Britains had listened to Warner a bit more!

What are people's thoughts on this magazine now that it has changed to bi-monthly and been redesigned? Or had most given up on it before the redesign due to Model Farmer coming to the fore?

Staying in Galway for a few days, did an internet search for model shops and found that there was one in the industrial estate literally down the road from the hotel. Got there to find it had closed down

Were there just four annual editions of this? I have 2005, '06 and '07 and I think there was one in 2004 as well, was it stopped after '07?

That's some collection! I'm guessing you're Irish with a name like Kirwan?!

Looking good!

Yeah Lonestar only ever did a 7610, the 7810 was never produced with a Q/bubble cab

That's what I was thinking It is kind of odd though isn't it? For instance the Evrard fitted on a Ford 5610 (the wheels of which were better suited to spraying anyway!) and presumably others, so it would surely have made sense to sell it on its own?
