That is looking amazing, can't wait to see it finished. 

Just seen these photos for the Ertl Deere X9.  Looks pretty good.  

Thanks for sharing all the photos.  It's great to see the shows getting back to normal.  I am hoping the October Show will be on as I will likely be in the UK in early Oct.  Maybe I will bring a small diorama across from Hong Kong.  

I like that Claas alot, great work.  The farm is really coming along nicely.  

pretty excited to see the wheeled loader from JCB.

The reels are made from lone star red and yellow reel's.Waiting for some parts and decals to finish.

 

Thanks, that is a great model.  Hopefully it's not another 17 years to your next creation.  

Nice work, how did you make the pipe reels?

Anyone have interest in any of these items.  PM if interested so we can discuss price.  Might be able to deliver them to Spalding Model Show next weekend.

Not looked at them yet, tried all the normal sources for wheels etc and had no joy so far. 

One option I have been looking at for small wheels are from Lego.  I have been looking at getting something like this for a project I am working on.

thanks for the clarification 

That's looking really good.  I am watching your developments  closely as I have a Jones Engeneering Triple Bed Onion Topper on my build list and was unsure how to build it.  Seems like 3d printing is the way to go.

thats pretty dam impressive to say the least,  i have an idea for something but it would require a build like those arms, maybe i will try later in cad😀😀😀

thanks, I think the booms would have been a lot easier in CAD and printed, I manged to stick my fingers to them multiple times, ha.  Having seen some of your progress into the world of 3d printing recently I am strongly considering buying one (negotiating with wife, ha)

Amazing work, looks absolutely fantastic 

Thanks, I am really pleased with the way booms have turned out.  I procrastinated on making them for about a year.

Just knocked the dust off this lot……it’s been in retirement for over 12 years…….watch this space! 

excellent news, your Tim Sugarbeet harvesters were a great inspiration for me back in the day.

It certainly starts to push towards small businesses taking the leap and sucking up the initial costs of having their own ecommerce site. But equally I guess that's the cost of ease and access to a huge customer base.

 

I suppose the question is how much value is there in having a large customer base in a niche industry like farm models.

Yep. And that's with subscribing to a shop as a business seller

Probably cheaper selling as an individual and waiting for the offers. From what i read they take 12.8% of the final sales price plus listing fees

Thanks, seems pretty off steep.  Maybe why people are trying to sell more through Facebook.

Just been looking at ebay overall commission of what they charge sellers since dropping paypal and it's between 15-20% 

Be careful folks and shop around as websites will be a lot cheaper to buy run of the mill items 

Just to confirm, they charge the seller 15~20% of the sale price.  As that seems a massive cost.

Finally got the Claydons just about ready for some paint now! Has been a slog getting the leg assemblies all done but pleased how it’s gone 😎

looking very good, can't wait to see them finished.  

Made a little more progress on the Claydon V Drill.  I have added the seed pipe work, sprayed the press wheels grey and painted the tank.  It has been near impossible to get paint go match the Sulky colour.  All that is needed now is to add the rear steps, inspection platform, add the markers and the tines.  

I have also started work again on the Larrington Guardian Box Loader.  I have built 2 of the 8 box loaders so far.  Still along way to go.

Excellent work, loving the field. 

Thanks, that Dewulf planter looks interesting.  Suspect I will add it to my 2022 shopping list. 

Managed to get the paint on the AS Marston Fenlander.  As I had some paint left over I decided to convert my UH RPM Low Loader trailer to a Marston Lowloader as they are very similar designs.
