Looks great David, really impressive line up. Some great models there.

Like it John, it nearly looks like one of our lorry's.

Your right there mate, lovely job, built by your own fair hand I presume?

I had a go at the Massey 65 there recently and it all came together much easier than I expected. Not perfect, but I learned a lot while doing it.

I've a Roadless and a County to do next.

I recommend to anyone to give it a go.

The biggest risk it that you'll glue your fingers together, again and again and again.

Perhaps I should pluck up the courage to give it a go, long winters evening job possibly.

I have the 2 TM crawlers with the Dowdeswell ploughs but I must admit someone else built them, and built them brilliantly, they are faultless.

Would be a great collection to have, not that i'd have the skills or time to build them though!

Lovely crawler mate, one of my favourite of all time, fond memories of one of these on Romney marsh with a 6 furrow Dowdeswell on it. Lovely model.

be good to the rest of the 23. How many scaledown models are there in total?? 

I'm sitting in Kent wishing the rain would stop!

Happy new year everyone.

New releases look great and things i have been waiting years for! Apart from a real lack of implements.

but, what im worried about is how well the final models turn out - please not too plasticy or 'toyish'. i know Britains are good value £££ wise but lets hope that its not at too much cost of a good model?

Cheers Mike,

A fellow Canterbryian, everyone seems great!

Looks like fun here and the place to be in this game!

Like the muir hill.

Thanks Chris, i'm looking forward to it. Seems a great place to be to feed the old habit

Cheers Barry, dont know why i didnt do it before really.

Been a nightmare trying to get this photo thing to work, models everywhere too!!

Tris it would certainly be good if threeoaks are in the market for making Bunnings, we are ordering 3 or 4 more in our own colour scheme so bring it on threeoaks. I would be interested to see a picture of your Bunning model if you have one.

Cheers

Hi Graham,

Yes that's us, Mr Ledger has rather a lot of sewage cake from us. We had one of the Black fendts at the East Kent ploughing match which attracted some attention

Cheers

Charlie

Yes we did the work for csg, supplied them with the JD 69's and trailers on slef drive, and we did the spreading with T'gators that we bought from csg - old red things! lots of trouble!

And yes i believe we will need extra drivers for a fendt + bunnings for the new year.

All over really, we do the southern water material, and we were the last poor soles contracted to csg on wessex water who failed to make it pay using terragators. We stopped down there a few years back, at one time we had 22 JD 69's and griffiths trailers down there too running cake to farms (our kit on self drive hire to csg).

Seans drill sounds great, thats what i'm after big time, been looking for so long. fingers crossed Tris.

I'm in the process of taking a few pic's, i will load them up in collections area on the forum, if thats the right thing to do? I'm obviously learning my way round the site!!

Well if you feel like building a Challenger T'gator and a vredo i'm happy to pay!! Like you guys i'm passionate about this 'hobby' and spend far too much on it.

Thanks Joe,

Yeah your right - same tebbe box in every aspect aprat from bieng a tad smaller, the box on the vredo is the same as agchem put on (or used too) the 5 wheeler. And from personal experience i would think the vredo is without question better than the T'gator. We have had some bad experiences over the past 1o years with them.

Thats why were so pleased with the fendts, we will always have self propelled too but want to have a range of spreaders to offer. All good fun!

I guess you just build for your own collection?

Yes Joe your right, it does look the part indeed, exactly the same spreader as our Challenger T'gators spreaders. I know the chasis is a good one too, very well proven with an array of mountings, i need to find out from bert at fgs how he has got on with theirs this year. I will post some of the collection later.

As you seem very in touch with custom build / converts Joe do you know of a good MF30 drill in 6 metre version? cheers

Thankyou, our wb site is really badly out of date though - a project for the winter for someone, we have bought lots of other new kit this summer too - jcb 416s agri with so many extras, new K105 bredal lime spreader (monster lime spreader!!), tri axle cheiftain, too name but a few!

i think we will be putting one of the new 939's and one of the 828's with their spreaders into wilts full time next year.

Thanks for the welcome Sean.

Might get chance to get some pics taken today of the 1/32's and load them up

Yes the vredo does look good, we may well end up with one if they prove to be good.

oh no, they are the competition Chris!!

Thanks Paul, looking forward to it. Nothing in devon at the moment, but that can change
