I think by your pictures you should spend less time on the net and more time sweeping cobwebs and dusting!!

Not as many as RR Lund but maybe more Masseys! 1/32nd scale is the thing to collect over here.

I don't have pictures of my collection as it all got put into boxes when I moved. I don't have a place to put them yet. I do have a picture of the bales I make. These are 1/16th scale exactly. They stack pretty nicely. tied with single strand copper wire. it was the only thing soft enough for the knotters to twist and cut correctly. The baler that bales them is also boxed away. I haven't touched it in 5 years or so. It took me about 2 years of spare time to design and build the baler and get it to tie correctly. getting the fescue cut up to the correct size before stuffing the baler is the hard part. It has to be pretty fine grass for the baler to make an even tight bale.

I had lot of interest from people wanting to buy bales from me, but, I have trouble getting the bales to all be the exact same length, unless the grass gets fed very very evenly and slowly. I still need to do some tweaking of the metering system. IT's hard to make stuff on a small scale using a full scale technique. It's like "reinventing the metering wheel"

John_PA · Mar 18, 2013

one more picture I have...

First and second cutting. hahaha

the new Holland baler in the background is just a toy. the baler that actually makes them is not scale looking. had to use full scale components to get it to work correctly.

Bill Radford · Mar 18, 2013

One of mine.

NorminN.B. · Mar 18, 2013

rrlund, now that is a collection. I love the old Oliver tractors

Rich'sToys · Mar 18, 2013

My collection is not as large as rrlund, but close. Between tractors and trucks I probably have close to 400 pieces. They also had not been dusted in a while. I've been working on that these past couple weeks. I think I've spent 3 afternoons down there and I'm not quite half done!
