jnrcatt Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Thank you deere-est and tractor man 810 for your time today to talk about the diarama, love the idea of using used and ground coffee beans for the soil, and the time and effort that has gone into the models and buildings is plain to see, nice one ;D. Oh yes and could you remind me what you suggested for the uprights on my proposed atcost barn deere-est, remember me? the tall one with the hair!!

MDFord Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Another Top Class display fellas Wish I'd seen it in person A great showcase for FTF and the hobby in general. Can i ask a few questions? I think it may have been discussed before in the past (sorry) but whats the Post Knocker on the 135? In the outstanding workshop scene what make are the mechanic figures? Is it dried coffee in the field thats being drilled? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it dried coffee in the field thats being drilled? Cheers Hiya Mark, answers to the above! The post knocker is the creation of Kieth Paice (also famous for the feed trailer and bale feeders, metal gates and feed barriers you see in the yard). All works, even the turn buckle for the fore and aft tilt for the main mast. Pivots sideways and the thumper thumps!! The figures in the workshop are old Scalextric figures, ebay now and then. And Sean is indeed a coffee drinker!! And he drinks alot too!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes and could you remind me what you suggested for the uprights on my proposed atcost barn deere-est, remember me? the tall one with the hair!! Nice to chat with you there aswell, was nice to hear about your Powerfarms being resucitated by the flick of the pto shaft. It's what's good about all these like minded nutters on here, someone somewhere will know the answer to many queries. The stuff I mentioned to you is textured paint, watch your PM box.

Great stuff, did us all proud ;) ;) As always, all your compliments are truelly and very greatfully received. Couldn't have done it without the other two, or indeed Traci who made three trips there and back today bless her. The pleasure as I am sure Sean and Mark will agree is all ours. As with my own building projects at home it's the feedback of others which spurs me on so most of my stuff wouldn't have been at Toytrac or Shepton without you guys. .. . And it wouldn't have been at Spalding either in the future tense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
