Getting bored I took the family scroll saw and built this tractor out of mainly 1/4 plywood in our basement that winter. When my folks moved off the farm 20 yr ago I was surprised the tractor was still there, I had long forgotten about it. Well another 20 yrs is gone and it got dug out again. It does have a few things broke off, the clutch and brake pedals and rear reflector lights, but other than that pretty good shape. Lugs on tires are layered electrical tape cut to width and length. Muffler is a wooden spool with a bent nail cut off for a extention. The little decals are cut out of electrical tape also. All pieces are glued together. Even has a vinyl headliner and upholstry, I do not remember where that came from. The 1/16 scale 1070 is there for size comparison. I was a CASE nut at a young age. Rod. [Reply]   [No Email]

Been doing that myself, the last couple of snowy days. Been making some other stuff also such as Casey the hound, that converts to Casey the combine. It is a kids pull toy, complete with a cog in his belly that makes a sort of barking sound. If I can get the build time down with these proto types, I may accompany the wiffey to some craft shows next spring. I have a genaric tractor also that I can paint any color Loren [Reply]  [No Email]
