Valley Axe Man Posted October 14, 2017 Author Share Posted October 14, 2017 Cheers for the comments and likes lads, much appreciated I didn't actually know Brian did a 4/60 on 14x30's, so when i saw it i thought it might as well come home.... i am still missing a 10/60 on standard tyres and a 4/65 on wide tyres, plus the winch version of the 4/60 to have the full set of Nuffields that Brian's done so far..... Give it time and i might have filled the set by the time i'm 40 hahaha 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valley Axe Man Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 Finally got this finished for weekend after being sat on the bench for many a month collecting dust, a UH DM4 fitted with 16.9x34's off a 7000 and the 7000 fronts fitted to the nuffy rims.... Not really perfect by any means but my get out of jail excuse is a set of 4/65 halfshafts in the DM4's axle give the facility to fit the 8 stud rims.... sounds good at least if not technically right haha 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anymore blue machines on the horizon ?? Cheers Justin, aye i've been slipping abit of late, there's a few projects sat on the bench covered in dust, including a 6 pot Major thats still to go back together, the 32nd scale 802, the 944 County is still as it was with the grille cut out ready for the new one to be made, and there's a 754 with half an engine in it, another 6 pot conversion but that one would be to end up as an 1174, the cabs drawn out, but just seemed to have got put back with the models somehow...all best laid plans.... always somehow never go to plan, abit like my intentions to give the full size major plenty of road.....need to somehow find more time for myself again. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr softie Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 paul ive just had a chance to have a search through your collection must say impressive as I don't like 1/16 as you know but this would make me want to start collecting them ( run wallet run whilst you still have the chance ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen the way you guys have to squeeze in to get back from Zwolle, there is no way you would get 1/16th models and people in the same car 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Valley Axe Man Posted November 19, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 19, 2017 A couple of the more eagle-eyed amongst you might have spotted this on my table last weekend at the Lakeland show, picked up last month at the HEMS show, is a model of Andy's dad's own trailer from the days when Andy was growing up on and around the farm, a 3.5 ton tipper, tube axle and split rims, with a swivel hitch that allowed a degree of articulation, in its earlier years was painted red and blue but was repainted to match a fritzmeyer cabbed JD 3120. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb86 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Another masterpiece Paul mate. Would be a lovely trailer scaled down to 1/32. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valley Axe Man Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share Posted November 20, 2017 Cheers Martin, Andy was going to talk to his dad to get abit more background on it, your right though, a 32nd scale trailer such as this, maybe even in kit form would make a nice model 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
