SMurF

But I am missing a cammel to go on my farm ;D ;D

Today i ave been welding up a neighbours plough and this evening i have been tileing soon be finished the kitchen

Now that is nice here's mine http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=10675.msg179317#msg179317

MMMMMMMM doe tw35's now that would be something

if i remember correctly does were made out of 5000's to 7000's and the bubble cab came with the 56-76's+ so i think doe would have ceased converting by then \ Always fansied seeing a bubble cab on my county but the doors wouldn't be able to open

Am on the tileing stage of mrs smurfs kitchen at the mo and took a small break to see what was on here

I put not a big seller but what sort of quantity could you turn out \ What would you class as a big seller And what sort of production runs would you be able to achieve The one thing in your favour is you can charge a decent amount for your labours whereas the big companies have to sell on mass and cheep Or it's a no go on their behalf If you do decide to go ahead with your project at least you have a good starting point as per possible customers because you have this forums members and guests to test your wares on before produceing something without sale value Good luck to you and hope that it takes off

Still building the kitchen \

Taking a day off from fitting mrs smurfs kitchen Back to it on monday \

Which one \

Today i have been mostly doing the christmas visiting episodes around essex am staying here till boxing day

Who's man enough to have a go with this then I know it's 1/24 stuff but it looks quality stuff if it works I may just have to have a go http://www.craft-products.com/realistic-brick-stencils.htm

I am working on it will get there one day The reason I am experimenting with printed paper bricks is my house has cost a small fortune to clad and the barns are even bigger so was working out a way to make it cheeper whilst still keeping it looking authentic. Might not use this patern as i have been dabbling with a few others but it is hard to not make them uniformed without drawing each layer of brick individually \

Looks like a hotch potch tractor to me the front weight block has too many holes in the front axle frame doesn't look county and the decals are plain stupid as arn't the 7740's 4 cylinders \

Been playing around with this What do you think

I bet he used to do model soldier dioramas as he seems very good at painting all of those workshop goodies My uncle used to be sh1t hot at that sort of intricate craftmanship

We had 2 of them up until 12 months ago but (as many of you know what i'm about to say) we scrapped them bit of a shame as one of them wes prety well serviceable just needed tyres and some tines that one was stored in a shed and kept rather well must have been in there for 25+ years But the rules were adhered to and it was scrapped along with load of other old and interesting bits of kit shame realy as once they have all gone there gone forever

Shady your farm is absolutely brilliant Are you a profesional model builder or do you just have a lot of time on your hands as you get a lot done in such a short time \

What's all this about old kit looks more modern than the stuff i have to put up with ;)

What is going to be left in this country with all these companies upping sticks and going abroad. Its not just tractors Its cars,machinery and most of evrything else that has gone And what is going to be left for us to do exept fight for underpayed jobs that we couldnt survive on And that's if you can get a job as they seem to be being taken by our benificial (tony blairs words not mine) to our economy migrant workers I'll have a forecast that as soon as they have bled this country dry they will return to their own countries and go and work for all of the companies that have stabbed britain in the back and buggered off abroad. I bet the manufacturers prices dont drop So fat cats will get fatter and the joe public get made redundant Will stop this conversation as it gets me realy riled Rant not over just suspended at the moment

Very smart F P Do another in blue please The real parmiter colour

Why did it cost you anything When that is what home insurance is for \ And you have told your insurers about your collection havn't you \ "WARNING TO ALL MEMBERS YOU SHOULD TELL YOUR INSURERS OF YOUR COLLECTION OR TAKE OUT A SEPERATE POLICY " What if it was a shawnee poole and major set which got chewed You wouldnt want to have to pay to replase that now would you

here you go
