DavideSpinazzi Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Hello! I have just joined this forum. My name's Davide, I'm 42 and I like to customize tractors and implements. I mainly work on 1/32 scaled items. I invite all of you to have a virtual tour at my place: http://profarm.splinder.com to have a look to my models and let me know what you think about them. My favourite brand is John Deere and I am also proud to work for a JD dealership here in Italy. Have a nice surfing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavideSpinazzi Posted August 16, 2006 Author Share Posted August 16, 2006 @JohnP: I live in the north of Italy, near Milan, at the beginning of the largest country area of Italy. We mainly grow corn, wheat, barley, hay. Rice is cultivated a little bit western, where they use those "strange" wheels on tractors, since they have to enter mouldy fields. Here is also the area where they produce Italian cheese "Grana Padana", maybe you have heard of it, it's quite typical. @ Kentman: we older? not at all... Of course if any of you collectors will have a journey here, I will be happy to meet you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smallclaas Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Hi Davide welcome along to the forum, great to hear from other parts of the EU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnP Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Thanks Davide, I'm not familiar with Italy apart from some of the tourist areas, and you don't see any tractors there unless you get out into the countryside. The website is excellent, well done ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ferguson Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 Yes... welcome indeed Davide... I was once a cheese salesman...
