  1. I disagree . The price is around 54 euros and worth every penny. Aparently made out of all metal, even the tines. Looks to be one of the best detailed models ever produced. I just wish it was a different make, like a Pottinger or Kuhn. If Mar Ge make all models like that I want to see more....how about some beet or potatoe equipment.

    I'm in agreement with that as well. Mine came today and is sitting alongside the Fella tedder on my shelf. I mainly collect UH and Wiking models but these two are in a different league as regards build quality and detail. Will stick some pictures on soon

  2. I've been re-organising my display cabinet and decided to take a few pics while the silage gear was out on my desk

    First up Mowers, Tedders and the Rake

    Close up of the New Fella tedder from Marge Models, think it looks good on the Claas Axos

    Then Baler's, Waggon's and Harvesters

    Then the Carting Gear and Loader (obviously i'm a bit short on silage trailers but i'm working on it, fancy a Stewart and a Herron)

  3. Don't know if anyone else will agree but i have all three 1:32 Wiking tractors and the Krone forage wagon. The best tractor by quite some way is the Claas Axion 850 which i would say is more detailed than the Fendt or Deere.

    As i drive a 6830 Premium most of the time have a bit of a soft spot for that model and am pleased it has a weight rather than a front linkage as its almost impossible to get a decent tractor model without a linkage.

  4. Thanks for all the comments

    Time to answer a few questions:-

    One set of wheels are from a joskin cattle trailer, the ones on the wooden floored one are from an old JD tipping trailer which i think was possibly made by ERTL

    The wooden floored one is 24 foot and the chequered plate one is 26ft

    Next scratch build i plan to have a go at is a McConnel Topper which also happens to be sitting in the yard outside!

  5. Thoght some of you might be interested in a few pics of my new tractor, especially as its one of the first around with the panoramic cab. Seems really good so far apart from a bit heavier on diesel than the old 6820. I'm told thats common in tierIII tractors though.

    Sorry about the quality of the last two pictures, they were taken on my phone

  6. Just found these pictures on the JCB website, ?21.99 each. I ordered one of each. I think they look quite good. Well they should do the amoount of time we've had to wait

  7. I've been playing around with these for a while now but not had time to take any pictures until now. Sorry about the poor quality phone pics

    First up GT Bunning 120 Lowlander resprayed from the UH triathlon Spreader

    I know theres nothing here that hasn't been done before but thought i'd post them anyway. I'm planning to try and do a Herbst bale trailer next, as i've just bought one. Will probably have to be scratch built as it's nothing like any existing model i've seen!

  8. Great pictures indeed.

    What do you think of the Claas 365 balers? What did you trade in?

    Sure looks like you look after your stuff.

    Very happy with the way the two Variant 365's have gone this season. One has done 14000 bales and not had a break down of any sort while the other has just had a burst oil pipe and a bolt sheared off in the end of the pick-up auger. Traded a Variant 260 and JD 592 in for them, decided to go for the two Claases after demoing a Welger 435 and a New Holland at the end of last season, not very impressed with either!
