Grain bins

[JC]

Just found these in 1/64 scale, looking at the measurements I think they would work on a 1/32 scale farm.  \

Dont be silly

Dont be silly

I'm not.........

The ones near us are only about 14' to 16' high.

[Tractorman810]

yeah those little metal ones come in all sizes,theres several small farms arround here with 15/20 ft bin,tucked away in the corner on the yard

where abouts are they fp?

[JC]

America, just trying to get a decent price on them. They were either ?25 or ?30 each at Spalding last year which was a bit too much I thought.

[Tractorman810]

what sort of dia are they,recon they could easy be cut and joined to get more height

[JC]

Approx 6 inches, they are in three sections too from memory.

[Tractorman810]

mmm easliy adjustable then,add a set of 1/32 ladders and youd never know

Try this FP

I think that pic you posted is of one from this guy.

;) Looks ok to me, good spot FP  dimension wise would fit in ok, arent they a bit big for 1/64 scale though not that it matters 

[Deere-est]

The beauty with buildings is the scale doesn't really matter. You can build them as you like really. Aslong as bought ones dont have obvious flaws for 1/32 use - like ladders, railings, doorways etc then 1/64 should look fine on a 1/32 layout.

[Tractorman810]

it still amazes me that no-one except scratch builders do a range of 1/32 stuff,,if you look at some of the stuff on that site,is is easily upsizable to 1/32,and would sell like hot cakes

I have one of those bins. It is a neat model.

Previously, I've suggested to Bill Walters that they should look at reintroducing this line if the tooling is still available. He was going to look into it.

hope he does SPN, but maybe update it a little with some extra detail  :)

These arrived today and as you can see, they can be swapped and changed to make them bigger or smaller, the down side is that the two vertical sections are different so you can only use the top one for extending other silo's, the bottom one however might come in handy as a slurry tank.

nice!!!!  ;D

how much is a set then

[MODELFARMER]

HHMMMmmm rockets,

I wish I was small again.

Yea ow much??

Grain or blue paint and a slurry tank it is hi!!

[MJB1]

would have said the two ring one would be large enough , you going to make a cast of them jase to get the price down to a sensible level ? (making small adjustments of course  so's not to get hindered with any copywriting )

Not really worth the trouble at that price mjb.

[Tractorman810]

very nice jas,i would prefer the 3 story one,loks just like the smaller one they had at the farm height wise,are you going to add a ema ladder set like mine to it,would finish it off a treat mate

Remind me: Was bringing home a Massey 1200 from Spalding a sign that you are really cool, or that you are a ditto-head?

..... and does bringing home two make you a shortarse with a weak bladder?
