L33 DA17ON

This was the other dj the draining gang had. With stone cart.

Like them fords mate.. not sure I should be saying that as I'm supposed to be a jd man. Are the tw15 the same engine as the 8210? I really need to buy a 1.32 ford tw and try get a conversion 8210 for my diorama. Nice pictures

Yeah it does we have a chrome pipe for it. It was on when my brother bought the tractor. But hes like a old mad and changed it to the standard one. Rear arms never worked as it's the electronic ones fitted on it. Was some solenoid or something. Missing the bottom side panels as well but they seem very hard to get hold of.

Thanks I do have a soft spot for the 8210. The field with the draining rigs in gets cut for silage and the ford pulls the baler up that hill better than the 66 that's why it's on baler. We removed the panels a couple years ago and sent them to get sprayed. The box section on bottom of doors are little rotten but not bad. Thought about rattle can spraying the cab but thought it wouldn't look right. 66 got the same treatment same time but had new rear mudgaurds as well.

Also got a couple shots of out tractors ford never get unhitched from baler does nothing else frond farm. 6600 is the main tractor round the farm does all the mower work, fert spreading and muck spreading, drawing out and growing up. Then when fords balding it goes on McHale 991 rapper.

Had the joy of watching these guys work today there draining 2 of our fields. I asked asked one of the guys what engines they where running he said ford 8210 and 7610. They also had a new john deere but didn't get pics as it was in top field with stone cart on. Got a video of them working but wont let me post it says file to big?

Could be the seller. I've had it done to me before where the seller has 2 accounts and when you put a bid in, he puts a couple pound more in. Happened to me with a stihl longreach headge cutter.

Looks like some moneys worth. I'd love a volvo Amazon as a barn find.

What's the cars in background?

Same tractors yes please.

Was up at our farm today with my 4 year old daughter to get her to see the upbringing I had save to say shes not that keep. Hopefully my sone will show some interest. Anyway had to take a couple pics

Yes we did. They were ok to deal with. I believe they've designed there own gritter them selves. Only issue we had with the pronar was the spinner it only had a 5meter chuck out so doing big car parks you have to do a lot passes.

Now I'm liking that cab star. Is it the n400? We use one for gritting at winter with pronar gritter bolted dow to the chassis. They have some pulling power.

Seen that earlier on today at £19.99.

Washed the volvo today.. well can now say yesterday. Picked what felt like the hottest day of the year so far. It's been in need of a full exterior clean for a while now when I was back at work we laid a new yard for my bos with road plannings he then insisted to coat it in red diesel to seal it with a bomag roller. Save to say for a couple months the tyres on the Van's and cars where slick when leaving on a night. And the paint work was covered in tar spots. So the volvo got Tfr rinse Iron-x (fall out remover) Snow foam rinse 2bucket wash Tardis wipe down 2bucket wash again. Tango rinse Dried Polished and waxed Trims brightened up Wheels cleaned Tyres slicked Outside windows cleaned. I'll post some pics tomorrow.... well later on she scrubs up well for a old tank.

Looks great nice setup. Hows the lambing going or gone?

I've also been watching that truck. Looks well built. Out my price range.

I like that. I'm not a massy fan but something about that looks cool. Nice work.

So as the title says clear your workbench. Found my bench getting less and less space with bits I'm gathering up, to build my diorama. So made some very quick shelving out of some scrap wood out the garage. 1 across the chimney wall and 3 down the side. I'll be doing the same on the other side to keep some models that dont have boxes with them.

As I've said fantastic work. Itll be great to see what else you decide to build. So realistic. Like said in a earlier post if it was out side with the backdrop it would look real. Great work mate keep it up.

S7 or S8 skidder?

Your right when you buy a new vehicle you can choose what reg you have it's the last 3 digits. My brother had SD57 TON it's just a list the the seller has on the system.

A lad near us was a jd man he does a bit of contracting for local councils had a couple kids not sure what. Pulled a track machine on a lowloader and the other pulled a crusher most of the time. Anyway now he runs 2 valtras must say they do look a very nice tractor never used one though. But I think you cant go wrong with the green and yellow ones. it's a nice set of models you have there.

Coming along nicely mate looks great.
