JC Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 That looks nice Graham, whats the blue machine?? How big is the base board?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 Cheers F-P. The blue machine is an Alvan Blanch batch mixerwith a red roller mill on top. You tip barley into the hopper and then you roll the barley then it goes into the batch mixer, you can also add protein pellet and minerals through the grill at the back and it gets augered over the railway sleeper wall where it gets picked up with the loader and either gets put into the mixer wagon or fed adlib to bull beef. Hope this has explained it a bit. There are two baseboards, one is 3ft x 20 inches and the other is 3ft x 15 inches. There is a join running down the middle wall you can just see it by the intake pit. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike R Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Another Great work of art graham I wish I had more space for all your Creations mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 Cheers for the comment Mike. It's surprising how quickly you run out of space when you do a layout. You need a massive shed for all of your collection Mike. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Graham, I might be interested in one of those driers and the mixer for my grain stores I'm about to start, could you pm me a price for them individually please?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike R Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 When I retire I am going use my garage which is 30 ft x 10ft for my layout but i have to wait about 20 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 That'll be pretty impressive when you can do that fella. That's the trouble , I haven't got the room. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallclaas Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Another well made and detailed building Graham, like all the detail you have put into the roller and grain dryer. It must take you hours to do, but it's well worth it with a creation like that. Very, very, very nice It's is a bit of a problem alright modelling in 1/32 space soon runs out. To make the most of the space I have you have to cross my layout to get to the other end. But hopefully I'll start my garage soon and have a bit more space.

NewHolland2 Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Excellent, I like it a lot, I live opposite an old grain-store and that looks pretty dam good as a model one to me...... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike R Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 another thought with your layout you only put a small number of models in the barn which makes it look bigger where as most of us put far too many and it looks over crowded I know I do..

Deere-est Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Ouch!! I just raised the computor desk Kevin and Perry stylee!!! Thats excellent, I have to pull my finger out. I have most of what I need to get a grain store up and going but I don't want to get too far ahead when the old layout isn't finished yet.. . . And after the hassle I have had I am in no way giving up on New Zealand plans now, the anly alternative is for you to stop building in my absence Graham, how does that sound?!! :D Love the detail like the grain walling and the drier and stuff, brilliant.
