  1. u use a PUNCH Donal. it a thing u buy in a hardware store.

    u put the punch in the centre of the metal pin.

    have tractor on bench.

    Hold the punch

    Hold hammer in other hand

    Hit the punch with the Hammer

    Result is the pin should move and leaving a wee round boyo

    here a picture of a Punch http://www.bearingboys.co.uk/product_images/draper/13509_622-623.jpg

    doesn't get much simpler than that  ::)

  2. I think it would be a good idea at some of these shows to have an A4 sheet (or maybe even larger) telling the public who's display it is and a little bit of history on the display...e.g. is it based on a real farm ...has it a name...what made the exhibitor decide to build the display etc etc.

    Having something like this would let the spectating public know a little more about the display if the exhibitor was not there at the time. In addition any budding writer / photographer can take a picture of the sheet instead of scrawling down notes which might not be easily translated at a later stage ;) ;)

    Although I have only exhibited once at a model show I have exhibited my vintage tractors at shows for the past 25 years and have always had boards giving a bit of history on the tractor since the last thing I want to do at a show is stay with my own exhibit all the time.

    there was A4 sheets with info on most displays and names of the people that owned them name and forum name  ;)

  3. great pictures ,can i ask ,are all irish buildings red frames and green cladding?? every building in them layouts is the same colour scheme , so i asume its the norm over there?? i know this way its greys greens blacks , wood cladding and stone ones to,

    The most of them sheds are made by a man called Paul Savage (sorry if i got the last name wrong bad with names)  ;)

    yes a fair deal of sheds are that colour or they are white with red tin like the ones i have on my display  ;)
