  1. Happy St Piran's Day (Gool Peran Lowen) to all my Cornish friends. My Fergie has been decorated to celebrate!
  2. Just as a point of interest Paul, I have bought various items from Universe mini via Ebay. Less hassle in my experience.
  3. The turret shaped building in the foreground is the old culverhouse where pigeons were once farmed for meat and manure.
  4. This is the old yard on my main farm, Pengwarthick Barton - a 350 acre beef and cereal farm in West Cornwall. Pengwarthick means "headland of the horned cattle" in the Cornish language and Barton is a Saxon word meaning barley farm.
  5. Just started the Teagle Titan test print. Still more work to do. Very pleased with how the wheels and tyres have turned out.
  6. Presumably the answer is cheap Chinese labour
  7. The 4000 series were the last Masseys produced at Banner Lane but there were factories in other countries making 300 series Masseys under licence at that time - ITMCO in Iran, for example and a factory in Turkey was still producing the MF 240.
  8. UH New Holland T6.180 Heritage Blue, bought from Ernest Doe.
  9. Autocult makes a 175. I got mine from France.
  10. Mo Miniatur actually made a 178 4wd, not a great model though.
  11. Tracteurs Ferguson - this book is of particular interest to me as I own eight French Ferguson tractors. The text is in French, but fortunately I speak the lingo! If you don't speak French, it still has some great pictures.
  12. The English Farm Wagon. Fascinating book. Amazing variety of wagons, although four wheel wagons were never that popular here in Cornwall, due to the hilly terrain and narrow lanes.
