Very nice! Look forward to seeing more pics as we mainly have kuhn gear on our farm, including this rake. Is this UH rake any good, as I am looking at getting one?

I'm not sure,I'm hoping somebody here will be able to answer that.

I'm not sure either, but it looks like it might be for railway tracks, lots of machines have them so they can work on railway lines.

Great pics, looks cool the line up of all the hedge cutters. Don't get to see that many of them down here in New Zealand. Thanks for posting.

Fantastic work Fred, loving the loader on it

Great start. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

That looks superb not its all painted up it JD green. Thats some amazing detailed work you have done, top work!

Got over 25 new items coming out this year... put that in your pipe Britains...phwwwwt  ;D

25 items!? That is a fair amount! Can't wait to see them. Any hints yet?

And HLT products will always remain a far better quality the Britains.

Wow Nick, looks awesome!  You've certainly got some space play around with there - I'm a bit jealous    Would love to come and have a look sometime?

Great work Ruben!  Really like what you've done.

The cab interior looks very realistic, you've done a great job. Makes it lots more interesting being able to see each step of your conversion. 

Looks really good! Can't wait to see the progress of this build.

That looks fantastic Phil! I agree with Lord Ferguson, very detailed instructions and those pictures make them even easier to understand. Thanks for posting! 

A sneak preview of the 2012 March items will be revealed on the 25th of December, the other itemes will be revealed at the 1st of February...

1st of February!? Why so late this time? I'm not sure I can wait that long! 

I'm from New Zealand too 

I agree, absolutely fantastic. Are they made out of fabric and filled with something?

Well traditionally early December is when Siku announce next years model releases so its any time now

Hope its soon! Last year they didn't announce them until quite late in December because I remember checking the website everyday to see if they had been announced yet. 

Also, what would have Pete used for the back wheels on his 2140? (Have sent him a pm but he hasn't been back on FTF lately)    Cheers for your help. Sam

Hi, am just about to have a ago at a 2140 or a 1640.

Does any one know what would be the best match for the front 2wd wheels other than the Britains 4020 ones?

Looks fantastic, love the 2wd. Am about to have ago at a 2wd 1640 or a 2140. What model are the front wheels from?

That is some truly amazing work! They are so amazingly detailed and well built. You really couldn't have done a better job. A great topic you've made too being able to see the diorama, all the close up details and the drawings. Do you have any plans for future models or are you having a long well deserved break?

Thanks for that, will have a look in a garden center soon.    The sweets sound rather nice too! 

Thanks so much Mandy! - ever so helpful as always 

I  knew to fill in the bottom but had never thought of using foam - must try it, sounds good 

And if i ever do a "proper" scene I will get some of your ones.

Hi, does anyone know where you can get of decent sized amounts of mustards seeds for potatoes, as I can only find small 40g packets at the supermarket? Many thanks Sam 

Thanks for posting. Interesting topic and excellent photos 

They certainly do look spot on and very realistic!!! AMAZING work!   Do they take you long to make each one and what sort of wood do you use?
