Lady Ferguson Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I'm planning a 1:32 scale power set for the farm in for the New Year and was hoping for some advice on what to include - I know you guys have already suggested a few bits in the past, so I was thinking: Pressure Washer Leaf Blower Electric Fence Unit Chainsaw Stimmer Is there anything else you would like to see? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakescot Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 sounds good already mandy, could I suggest a welder,either with gas bottles or without ? angle grinder?, perhaps the chainsaw could double as a petrol engined disc cutter?bound to be something else..............the noise you hear is me wracking my brain (thats why its so quiet, not much going on up there !!!! ) knew Id remember how about a post hole auger?

roberthenning Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 That all sounds good, especially the power washer. As for additions, heres a few ideas Trolly Jack Snap on style tool chest Work bench with vice Altho some of those could be for different sets, as if one set got too big might put some peopel off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FordTractorCrazy Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 great idea, like to see a pressure washer and chainsaw in the future... the leaf blower can be made into a portable pesticide sprayer. Pretty much the same machine except for a small 2 gallon tank on top of it other power driven tools i am thinking of: - pushable lawnmower - power unit - hedge trimmer - electric fence power unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakescot Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 you dont wont to much do you Sounds good Mandy he he no, not much, was just thinking though what might be adaptable to do a couple of jobs.pressure washer box might..might also be similar base for a welder,halfed for a electric fencing unit perhaps????? same with chain saw , leaf blower , post hole auger, petrol grinder..........just ideas mind having seen some of your recent introductions between you and Frazer I`d not imagine this would be too difficult Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oooooh what about a space heater!! http://spaceheaters.co.uk/ Will that keep you busy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 sounds like some good additions to your stuff mandy , the fencer unit for one given your fence sets, like the idea of the chain saw, as mentioned a stihl saw can be done from that with a swap to the front end blade easy to do , pressure washer, well every farm has one so thats a good one to, seeing as you have the tools already the stuff mentioned like trolly jacks or axel stands would do well, and the tool chest to,what about a wheel change unit sure some one will have a picture, for row to normal tyre swaps??

Lady Ferguson Posted December 5, 2010 Author Share Posted December 5, 2010 Thank you everyone for your input. I'm going to sit down and think carefully about your suggestions, although I've already had a chat with the sculptor regarding making a pressure washer (complete with hose line, of course). If anyone gets the chance, please could you confirm (maybe upload a pic \ ) f the type you would expect to see around the average farm, please (and much thanks in advance) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farmersam Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 All sound like original ideas. Like the idea of a push lawn mower also! How long until we are able to buy these do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
