Another regular on the circuit who's name I dont know. 

Zak Andersons (Anderson Agri) big Lower Manor Farm as seen on the forum which placed 1st. 

The gigantic farm display, I've never caught the guys name but the display also visits Toytrac and Warwick

Some of Reg Grays latest work, the multiple levels of the dairy farm were very effective. 

I had a brilliant day out on Sunday, even if a little worse for ware after Saturday nights antics. 

The number of displays seemed to be well recieved by the public but chatting with various traders there was not alot of people people digging deep and spending, likely a reflection of the current economic climate. 

I only managed to grab photos of the displays but there was a veritable delight of items on offer from traders. 

Photos in the order they were taken, sorry for any wrong names! 

Craig Pitman who placed third I think. 

Best get everything looking it's best for Sunday, abit of maintenance work required and a good vet for those cows. 

That is excellent Nige, really impressive work, particularly being in brass! Hopefully its not 17 years till we see another build from you

Very sad news to hear about Julian

That looks smart Sean, something like that would be very difficult to achieve with a resin printer, especially without warping heavily

That's looking really smart Sean

how long does a file like that take to print then james ? 

From memory this was printed along with a bunch of track grousers, so I nested three engines and probably 15 grousers on the build plate and because they're only 10/15mm tall it took about an hour to print everything.

Was that printed as a complete piece then hand painted James,

Yes Joe, one singular print with supports where the computer wanted to put them and then just quickly brush painted.

A little demonstration of the detail a Resin Printer can achieve. This was a full size file downloaded off Grab cad then scaled down to 1:32 and put in the printer. The detail that has remained is really impressive. 

Great to hear, looking forward to hearing more

Missed these earlier, love them! Particularly the Bonser, foot pedals are the icing on the cake detail wise, far too much patience

Incredibly intricate work there John, nicely done

Hi,

As i mentioned: really nice work James!! Scale is 1:32 i asume?

I'd like to keep following your process. Is there a specific post you've made for it?

 

Best regards,

Jan

Thank you, yes it is 1:32 scale. I have a habit of starting projects and not finishing them so I have not made a specific topic, when some more progress is made I will start a new topic.

Hey James,

 

Very good looking machine!!!!

Really nice undercarriage too, home-made / 3D-printed? Or something else?

Keep up the good work!

Thank you Jan, yes the undercarriage has been designed and 3D printed by myself.

Really starting to see the possibilites 3D printers can offer. Just not as enjoyable as hand work, think the upper body work on this will be off the craft knife, spend enough time staring at computer screens at work! 

 

Looking good Gav, do you just flat the backs of the castings off with sand paper, or do they cast flat enough to use as they are?

Loving those Will, would look great on a diorama

Looking good Alex, great to see the new farm expanding beyond the carpet!
