Very nice Mark 

Explain a bit more about the bale trailers Who bulit them  You

Numpty for Blake? He talked alot about them after he did them quite soon after Spalding  \ :D  [

Yes the shop in Tenterden went first after they double the rent after the first year !

I think its the same chap whos running with littletoyfarmer although I could be wrong 

I was gutted with that, especially as my Dad agreed to take me there the week after it shut  >

Been helping my neighbours son in law out again today, was using a stump grinder to .. grind stumps obviously  What great fun that is, and because he worked for the local farm he told me when harvest is due  ;D Then moaning with the girlfriend, seems all we do anymore and seeking internet information off Gav  :D

Looks quite good, is it yours mate? I especially like the idea of showing your layouts .. interesting.  Good range of stock too

yeah arround the big arable areas they do, but truth be know a lot of farmers still use 5 furrows in most areas,thats the biggest you tend to see round this way

I agree with Sean, around here they use 7's because the guys are rich and are running big machinery but on most farms you can expect a 5 

But don't get me wrong looking forward to this, will be interesting. Looks like he's definetly been watching what the collectors want  Will hopefully be on my list 

Looks stunning Pete, really really does. Love them all to bits, can't wait to get my hands on one of those 7530s  :)

Looks awesome to me Gav my old fruit bowl, excellent work again  How did you get such a good paint finish?

I can't believe... cut out a purrrrfect 1/32 tax disk... and promptly dropped it in between my keyboard keys again - there are two in there now and they won't come out

Mandy half my lunch is in the keyboard somewhere, thats life  :D

do you to ploughing matches?what did you think of the claas combine 600

Most of them mate yourself? Should meet up sometime  And very impressive, an odd header i thought but cool decals  ;)

i did see the doe FarmerKnotted-NumptyKnickers06 it was a good day i go every year my best part was seeing that 9620t that was cool :o :o what did you think????

It was quite cool, only saw the Doe from a distance though. And yeah shame it was locked  But yeah i think it was again an alright show but a bit expensive again and a bit too big for it's own boots but overall an awesome show 

i do them for the fergys mate, send me a rough size that you want, and the reg and i will print some of and send them with the bits when they arrive mate

Oh right cheers mate, just 1/32 ish  \ Just to fit on the back off two 6920S's and a 3350  \ I'll PM you the numbers mate 

Felt quite odd as no one was distracted by me and then was no chatting  \ Very strange, im sure those pickers only see binary code telling them to pick faster, they're like robots  \ I think thats all of them, a few close ups later 

Sorry the pics are far away but they were doing the middle when i took them, i've got some closer ones to upload later 

Typical picked the same pic twice!  Anyway a lot of interesting trailers amongst this lot and a John Deere 2650 and McCormick CX105 w. loader

Well as a lot of you may know i live in an area that deals with alot of salad etc. And they employ a lot of pickers to pick the crops out of the ground and spotted this lot picking spring onions the other day  Quite a few  :D

Now i know you've covered this before but i thought i'd bring it back up again. Basically im trying to perfectly scale down a drivers tractor i know quite well. So needed a number plate.

This site does show plates, therefore you can get rectangles like on tractors.

http://www.myshowplates.com/designer1.asp

Basically make your plate in there, you should see one i made earlier with company name for effect 

If you print screen and paste into word you should find a toolbar that allows you to trim it down to just the plate.

And thats as far as i got, im assuming you can paste it into paint and save as an image and then shrink down and print but thats yet to be done. So if anyone can confirm how you save it as an image to shrink that would be great  ;)

Excellent pictures Cameron a very nice combination he has there, love the telehandler 

I think it's broken  \ \

Seriously though hope no one was injured, looks an extremely nasty wreck  \

Here's my first attempt at a 1/32ish tax disk, with holder made from the clear plastic stuff that sticks to glass/plastic. I think it works okay... but I'll have another go at making a tidier circle later... \

Looks absoelutly awesome to me Mandy, great job there keep it up  ;)

indeed Tris they are great!!!, ones now my desktop!!.....wish i could find such nice pics to take! :)

Was guna say wish the oppurtunity of such excellent pictures came along to me  \ Great pictures mate 

here you go 

http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=15182.15

Mine look awful now  \ Will have to scan this old tax disc i found and see what i can do  ;)

dont lok to bad mate I would go a little bit smaller If I remember rightly someone did fitted a tax disc on one of there tractor conversion on here, think it was a david brown tractor or white case \

I would if i could mate  ;) The smallest hole punch i've got im afraid but does the job to me. And i have seen it done, was in CT on a classic NH or clayson combine. 

OK guys, had a crack at the idea this afternoon, tried PDC's excellent idea and i don't think it's that out of scale. Heres just a couple of pictures of the shape and size in the window. I'll have to decorate them in a minute .. what do we think? 

I'm having a break now, dont want to keep going and mess them up so I have to re-do them

Thats right mate you have a rest, as you said saves you messing them up  \

cheers mate  good job you put a posting on as it gives me a break from making box fillers fed up with all the cutting out

I'll have to stop posting for a while then wont i  :D But this is excellent work mate, have fun cutting out. Take it easy mate, relax
