SPN Posted January 23, 2006 Author Share Posted January 23, 2006 Hello Boys and Girls. I've resized these at home because I couldn't trust you-know-who to resize them for me. The lads are going to travel to Spalding and we're hoping to have T-Shirts for you to buy there! They will also be signing autographs! But seriously, here's more of the good stuff: (starting with the MF sign) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 I dont't know about anyone else but I'm running out of compliments for this set up. It is getting better with every photo!! That drilling scene is superb!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Is that 416 on steroids? Mine should sooo look like that one!! The fork looks grand, the wheels make it look loke a 434, tidy as you like!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPN Posted January 23, 2006 Author Share Posted January 23, 2006 I'm still in awe of these guys! Michael of Farmmodels.Net fame is in awe of these guys! (and that is saying something!) The Lee trailers are built from ice-lolly sticks. The silage rake on the JCB is scratch built. The silage pit walls, and the stand for the molasses tank are 6mm OSB with the panels/blocks scored with a Dremel. The rail on the top of the silage pit is made from matchsticks. The soil in the tillage scene is peat moss. The silage is sawdust mixed with green oxide paint (the type used to paint haysheds). Smallclaas will vouch for this technique as he was the first person I saw doing it - now everybody is doing it Check out the CB aerial on the JCB. Michael thought it was so cool when he saw it that he went home and made one for his JCB! The bad news is that ideas for the next edition are thin on the ground. Anybody got any thoughts?

MJB1 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 The bad news is that ideas for the next edition are thin on the ground. Anybody got any thoughts? considering the clamp pics, some of the forager & mowers would be good & seeing as you're in ireland ,how about some spud planting / harvesting same as deer-est, running out of things to say about this display so if the site goes soggy it means i'm drooling :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I Think someone seriously needs to contact classic tractor magazine to do a feature on this display or farm and site ,that will boost the sales Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civilpek Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 id say? they did a feature on Micheal F a while back, thats how i first found out about his display Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPN Posted January 24, 2006 Author Share Posted January 24, 2006 Thought so with the cab, I wonder what axles they have used on it?? Paul, the answer to the question asked was "JCB"! The axles are standard JOAL front axles. I can't remember what wheels he used. The jacks are from an ERTL Case 580. MJB: I've got a 4ft x 2ft silage field board done, and I'm expanding it to 4ft x 4ft shortly. There are pictures of it on a couple of other threads here somewhere. I'll post some of the expanded version when I get to finishing it. It'll be the first outing of my New Holland FX. James: Do you reckon you could get drawings/measurements of a Lee 16ft tandem axle? Both Paul and I are interested in making one of those. They were a beautifully proportioned trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FB Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Thought so with the cab, I wonder what axles they have used on it?? if thats the case thats a dam good conversion :) !!!, i thought it was the Joal at first glance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
