Very smart indeed. There's a lot of work in that bonnet and it has paid off.

Hoping to get down even if it's just for the day, but like Chris I may still be sowing wheat.

Very well thought out convo. Nice.

Now that is a particularly brilliant build. Superb detail.

Got another cabinet - deep enough for the combines, but shelves close enough together to make around 100 hp the biggest tractor that will fit.

The 'office' is so small I had to remove some bookshelves to get it in. All the newer stuff is in the 'old' cabinet now.

A good read in this thread - our local potato grower is down to under 50 ha to sow - at least yours are all in the ground!

Not familiar with these machines but they look a bit AS/Griffiths (?) so would they be same chassis as e.g. 6 tonne trailer?

It's a 'shawing hook' down here, Bill. Lifted quite a few trailers of swedes on a Saturaday morning, using one of those, when I was a kid!

That linkage is superb.

That's a great model - looks very professional.

That's going to be a nice 'easy sweep' floor by the time they've finished.

The only surprise for me was the Britains IH and Case IH not getting into the top three. It was some way behind third place as well.

Possibly indicates FTF members are prepared to pay a little more for realism and detail.

Very nice models indeed. Look forward to the complete lineup.

At Aberdeen I was very restrained - DBP 1164 - v.v. nice, PDC NH8340 also v.v. nice and a couple of models to break.

Excellent job again, John. Those rams and links must've been a fiddle!

Very nice model indeed. Great detailing on axles and brakes.

I received this in an email from Christian Gouel yesterday. I don't know the real machine at all so presume it is French market?

Went into Agco dealer yesterday for plough metal and came out with a Cat 765C and 865C - not sure why. ??? (they are nice though!)

Hmph! The neighbourhood was improving slowly, but that's it back to square one.

Red Ken back in London, Red Mark back on FTF - we're doomed, I tell ya.

Anyway... I've been 'well busy' doing some real work lately...

You are always good for a laugh Marky - 'real work' indeed. ;D

Just gets more and more detailed - excellent stuff!

Looks like a very nice model. The crumbler roller looks well detailed.

Had a look at mine the other day, it's got a price tag on the box £15.99

I didn't think you could change it, Mike. Is your PC on the correct time/time zone? Right click on time in system tray bottom right on task bar to check.

The real reason. It must be true - it's the Sun. ;D
