My family farm in Lincolnshire, so it is nice to build a small slice of home in my Hong Kong garage, haha. What do you do for a job mate?

sipher172 Posted May 14, 2021 Author Share Posted May 14, 2021 Not posted for quite a while in here, I thought I was moving house so I dismantled everything. In the end we didn't move and I have only recently been able to put the Farm back together, with a few adjustments. A replacement has made its way to the Lantau Farm's, we have replaced the Claas Tucano and Claas Lexion 760 with one Claas 8900TT. We plan to keep the 12m existing Claas header for the fields which have been switched to 12m CTF. Just finished up the last check over of the Lexion 760 in the workshop before it is shipped of. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipher172 Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 Managed to find a 1/30 House Kit on TaoBao for about £10. At that price I thought it worth a go for the model Farm. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipher172 Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 I also picked up these metal 1/35 Maintenance Steps and ladders. They were more easily put together than I expected. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipher172 Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 Put the house together today, came together quite nicely. Will need a few tweaks though. I decided to let my twin 3 year old boys to help, they did a pretty good job painting the windows, but maybe wasn't my best idea to get them involved with the hot glue gun. No injuries, but didn't give the cleanest of glue lines, ha. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking good Well mine is a little higher than the real one, as the wheels I have used are much larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipher172 Posted September 30, 2021 Author Share Posted September 30, 2021 It seems quite likely that I will have to move house in the not to distant future, so I have played around with bringing some of my models into my house. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
