Today I MADE

Some time ago I posted the model I did of the worlds largest chamberlain tractor, well its multiplied, its now one of three. Finished the extra two off yesterday, spoke with the client last night and he now wants another. How many tractors does on man need?

Great for you mate. Just the excitement shown to us by visitors is amazing. Did you make the???
I just let them know a very talented man on P.A. made it . I told them the purchase price per unit and they said, "fantastic".
The importance of detail really does sell your craftsmanship.
Congrats mate.It's sitting pride of place on our dining table on a straw placemat.
I am a very proud owner of a beautiful well made and loved piece of craftmanship.
Jaros :clap: :100:

Thanks Jaros, these tractors are a fun build, over 750mm long and 280mm wide, lots of detail, I actually used a milling cutter in my drill press to make the radiators and had to make a couple of jigs for the bandsaw and table saw to do all the wheels. Client hinted on the phone last night about doing a plane for him, my daughter tells me he has his own small plane, So I wouldnt mind betting he wants a model of that too.

Thanks for the kind words

Nah, I know ones for his dad, one for his brother, one for him but number four Ive got no idea.

Not today but been making a sucker with interchangeable ends (some round some flattened), need to finish the ally tube one for getting right down into narrow cracks

Splash guard for the trim saw. I was using a waterproof apron the water was running off of that and onto my pants, so a $5-00 bit of clear acrylic did the job .

You have an wonderful and amazing talent Manpa, all your creations are a true work of art :inlove: :inlove:

Found some alloy plate today so remounted the onboard pump and rifle boot.
4 bolts and it's out and the seat can go back in, probably under 5 minutes.



Also mounted a rear vision mirror off an old motor bike so I can now see behind me

Cant claim to have done these in a day, but they were finished yesterday, probably about forty five hours work over the last month. Havent had much shed time Oct Nov so it has been nice to get back into the swing of it.This is all for a return customer, presents for her buns due in March.

More great work mate.

Home for the hens .. only had them a few days and they have already laid 10 eggs ower:
Nesting box

Coop with nesting box on the side ..

Made with an old plastic storage tub some scrap wood and a piece of colurbond I had in the shed
The rest I bought from Bunnings for under $100 :Y:

Waiting for the rain to stop so I can start the next build ....

Daughter has some more make up (crissy present from us)... her talent at 13
not a real cut.... :argh:

Awesome!
We have a relative in the UK that is doing theatrical make up and it blows me away!

Well I have pulled up stumps on 2020 and will need to finish this project off next year

...... pretty much sums the year up come to think of it.......could have been a real pearler but ended up having a rather crappy finish.

Best Wishes for 2021 and dont flay yourself mate
